Approximate PP needed to become VIP?

[stephan]

I emailed them twice about VIP and they kept telling me I didn't play enough. I asked them how much I needed in PP, but they didn't bother answering. How many PP did you need to get into the Party VIP?

I was told 3,400 in a month. After hearing how few the bonuses are, I decided it wasn't worth it.

When I was playing $2/4 LHE I inquired about becoming a member of the VIP club and I was told at that level I needed to play 8500 raked hands a month. This equals 2550 regular Party Points. When I accumulated 3000 PP in a month I asked again and this time I was told I will be enrolled next month. Time passed, nothing happened. Once more I wrote an email. By then I was scoring 5000 PP and I was told I needed to increase my play by 20% to become a member.
So to me it looks like Party is rolling dice to find out how many points a particular account needs.

Way too much ambiguity for me to care too much. The points, no one really knows, the benefits, who knows? Bonuses, next Thursday?

I am not jumping through hoops for an unknown reward.

Why do peope keep inquiring about the VIP program?

It is: nonexsitent, made up, figment of imagination, rumor, lie, worthless to all but a few; all of the above.

That was nice of them. They told me 8,000 party points.

I don't have rakeback there either, so I play elsewhere except for their easy bonuses.

What is that? I know nothing of this "rakeback" of which you speak...

[Dire]

The requirement for me was to earn greater than 4000 regular party points in one month.

Everyone always says it doesn't matter, but when bonuses come around i get shafted with the $50 bonus while the VIP players get the $200 ones.
