I Worry About Some Of You

Actually, there was a third type of negative response to your initial post.

Those who found it random and pointless.

I don't think this new post has converted any of them. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

What Happened:
OP starts a series of threads, which result in arguments and mutual name calling. Posts about AP cheating decline dramatically.

What Should Have Happened:
OP starts a thread, declaring war on the Absolute Poker axis of evil. He explains that insider cheating at an online casino cannot be tolerated. He encourages us to declare jihad against AP by posting cliffnotes and links on every poker forum we can find on the internet. He suggests that we all temporarily change our avatars to ones that depict the "Absolute Poker cheating scandal". He encourages residents of Costa Rica to take photos of the perpetrators, their offices, and their homes, and post them on the internet. He suggests that observers at AP chat about the cheating scandal. He helps identify TV networks and websites that accept AP advertising. He provides leadership.

Maybe not the whole "take photos" part, but I definitely agree with you, especially the part about "provides leadership". As much as people looked up to Nat and Adanthar during this whole debacle, they are still young and nowhere near as wellknown as Mr. Sklansky (I had no idea who they were 2 months ago). Mr. Sklansky has the chance to step up and provide a type of leadership that has been lacking since the scandal broke. He can step up and become the spokesperson for this cause, but instead he has refused to because he is not sure they are 'thieves" and "deserve" it. That is why, Mr. Sklansky, I do not criticize you for promoting Absolute Poker. I criticize you for trying your hardest not to get involved, despite all the evidence in front of you.

I'm going to venture a guess and say that most people that said things like that were just flaming for attention, and i highly doubt anyone truly believes that absolute liked your post or that you were in on the take.

It is possible for them to be both. The average lurker-troll in BBV can be pretty stupid.

I withdraw the nomination. I just found OP's description of how he cheated (once) at Paradise poker. It would be difficult for him to lead the charge against the AP cheaters.

I agree. I was going to add a few other words too, but random and pointless would pretty much cover it.

said it b4, AP should get me a new CEO, rehire and change their name

Let me spell it out. My post basically said that even if AP totally cleaned house, the remaining management is marked as totally incompetant, at least as far as analyzing poker hands is concerned, or dishonest enough to try to cover up other's wrongdoing. I also said that colluders will continue to have a field day there until they install collusion detection.


[/ QUOTE ]

This all falls under the heading of "no [censored] sherlock", except for collusion detection which is an effectively irrelevent side issue. Too many intelligent posters lining up to swing from Sklansky's nuts.

As far as I'm concerned having such an opinion tells me you have something like Asperger's syndrome and you should be aware of it.
