Absolute Poker's Official Response to "superuser" allegations

[MicroBob]

Dan - that's beyond hilarious.
Wow.
Are these just the crazy capers of incompetent C/S people or what?
Almost makes some of Party's C/S look like freaking geniuses.

What I would like to see is more sites like 2+2 and P5's not accept AP advertising. Not sure if this is already happening or not but I thought I had seen AP banners on here before.

Would be even better if AP ads on WPT or elsewhere also turned away but I really doubt that will happen.

But places like 2+2 have every ability to turn-away advertising from AP and essentially black-ball them. And can also encourage rakeback sites to do the same.
If the affiliates like TITN and RTR and places like that decided it was in their best interest to alert their customers of shady goings-on over there then that could end up hurting them more than the negative publicity of the threads on 2+2 and P5's.

I think somebody mentioned that the traffic at AP has not noticeably changed since the whole blow-up.

P5s still has AP banners as of this morning. I didn't see any here yet. Bonus Whores still has a favorable write-up.

Scripted [censored] isn't anything new, especially from shady CS like Absolute's. I'm falling off my chair laughing at them trying to get NWP to push their scripted lies on their forum posters... :P

I agree it is time for big affiliates to step up and blacklist them. To this point only Pokerlistings and a few smaller affiliates have blacklisted them. Not all of it is related to this issue. I would like to hear from big affiliates as to what they plan on doing about AP.

I don't think so but if they did the threads would not have been removed. AP did ask other forums to remove threads about this.

It's time to start pressuring big affiliates to drop AP. I've emailed Gambling911 and Pokerroomreview (who still gives them an A????) about this as well as posting this at CAP. I suggest all interested party start emailing affiliates.

"AP did ask other forums to remove threads about this."


How do you know this?
Did the operators of some of the other forums mention this in their threads?
Sorry I'm not going to do the research myself as searching around on some of those other places can be a pain. Was just curious.

I removed the thread on request of AP upper management.

The next post is from AP. Jeremy, the head of PAW went on to make a repulsive post in his blog putting AP on a pedestal and calling out people here as overreacting.

[fluorescenthippo]

do they ever address why it took like 2 weeks to make this response? a credible site would have response within like 3 days.

[Dan Druff]

They can request all they want at Neverwinpoker.

No threads or front page stories will be coming down until I get some credible and honest answers.

They really need to go down for the good of online poker. I haven't ever played there, and now I can say I never will.
