Certain staff could credit accounts. But they were still reviewed like anyone upon cashout (at least, that's what I'm told).

I'm sure there are many people that have the ability to credit accounts.

Based on my interactions with people I have known within other nameless sites (as in it isn't important which sites they are to this discussion), both of these sound correct.

I will also add that certain staff likely have the power to fasttrack cashouts.

Oddly enough, at one point, I worked at a big 4 firm. Then I decided that was dumb and quit for poker reasons.

EDIT: Also, I was a terrible employee, I'm surprised they didn't fire me... I reported there on like 2 hours of sleep after playing poker all night online (that was back in my playing days)

There once was a site made by Scott Tom,
The name of it was absolute.com.

His Epsilon brothers came along for the ride,
They all made some millions and showed off with pride.

They had weddings in France and more than one stripper,
And would do so today if weren't for Potripper.

Potripper and friends, well they weren't really smart,
They played poker like morons and had a brain fart.

By folding those Kings and calling Ten high,
Potripper exposed the Absolute lie.

So dumping's the answer they all would decide,
Did they think that for sure from us they could hide?

Ah well, the Greycat is out of the bag,
It seems that their plan has hit a big snag.

Addie and Josem and Nat and lots more,
Found out about them and their plans for a score.

After covering up and telling more lies,
Absolute is in trouble, it's time for goodbyes.

And now we await the final word from the crooks,
About how they were fooled by geeks on their books.

It won't make much sense, whatever they say,
We all won't believe them, to do so is ghey.

Say goodbye to the guys that were Absolute,
The site is all rigged, the owners no goot!

Who is Adam Small?

One of the p5's founders and current mod/content editor and such. He's a smart, responsible guy that I think a lot of people would vouch for.

Thanks JMX and GG. I call it "Poetic Justice"...

Just amazing the amount of work that Nat, Adanthar, Josem and all of you guys have done on this. I cashed out all but about $100 early on this month from AP thanks to the warning.

I blew the rest of it off last night at a cash table warning the other players. AP shut off my chat after a while.....

Carry on! Slacka

Will their statement identify all of the accounts that were used to exploit the superuser abilities? e.g. we've "discovered" 4 or 5...but if Absolute comes back and says "yep, those were the only 4 or 5 that were involved, good job in finding them, gumshoes!", I'll call BS immediately. We're good but there's no way that the few accounts that we've revealed were the ONLY hole-card viewing accounts.

Their statement had better give the names of ALL accts that were used in this scheme, in addition to describing just how they were exploited.
