you know, if i ran a poker site (like stars or whatever) i would have engaged in a positive PR campaign already to assure my customers. it seems like a lot of Business 101 knowledge is missing at the sites

like i've said, 99% of these people posting are ALREADY convinced online poker is rigged/unfair/etc. and either a) has never deposited and never will or b) deposited one or two times, cursed their fate (or the cheaters) and quit.

edit: going off another post, i am totally shocked the other sites (most notably stars and tilt) have not issued a statement reinforcing THEIR good product as opposed to AP's. this is mind-boggling to me.

It's not even a matter of PR. Yahoo's report is garbage. They didn't do any research into the topic. When people were playing detective during this whole debacle, I was worried that they would expose AP and it would spill into the mainstream media with a bad twist. That is exactly what happened. sonofagoddamnbitch... this puts me on such insane monkey tilt

But the problem is that the donaters are going to open up their web browser and have their suspicions basically reaffirmed.... they don't suck, they lose because people are cheating.

i would find it incredibly ironic if BBV is the main reason for the death of online poker
