[/ QUOTE ]are you retarded or something?????? Go compare how many mid limit games are running at each site. I normaly see 2-4 times as many 3-6 / 5-10 games running on party. The big majority of stars players are playing play money and less then 1-2. But if that is what you are looking for......

Without mention fish and rakeback ... why do people play on party?

[/ QUOTE ]

Ok, I'll bite.

Without mention(sic) dancers and alcohol ... why do people go to strip clubs?

Pretty neat trolling effort; eliminate the main draws so you can cleaverly attack the half-ass other reasons people give. Or you can chastise them for violating YOUR rules.

I realize this fact. However, how are you going to change things if people are going to answer the question: "where should I play" and you say party every single time.

Basically, what I'm getting at here, how/what would it take for the players here to go over to stars and have stars be the #1 poker site?

Are you saying if they offered rakeback/more bonuses that more people would go over there? Because I seriously doubt it.

Wow, you're a complete [censored]. After I respond to you, I'm ignoring your stupid ass.

I eliminated those two reasons because if you take away the 2 (or should I mention 1), Stars is a FAR better site.

[/ QUOTE ] Your right because party already has bonuses, vip, rb, and a huge selection of fish and table selection at games 2-4++. also partys advertising would seem to apeal to the fish who wants to just go play some fun poker. Stars advertising seems aimed at players who want to learn how to play poker and become the next wsop champ. A lot of party fish stay fish, while i bet a lot of stars fish are actualy trying to improve and become a little better.

If you eliminate 49 of the 50 states then Reagan didn't get re-elected. It is really a pointless argument, but you are right; if you ignore the MAIN reasons people prefer Party, Stars is better at the minor things.

Other than THAT, Mrs. Lincoln, how did you like the play?

This is a very interesting idea. I wonder how much truth it has to it and, if true, does the advertising arm of Stars understands that by promoting their site the way they do, they are effectively "raising the bar" on poker (i.e. - creating a place where the fish disappear faster).

Very interesting idea.
