If you allowed multitabling then I could be looking at a different ad on each of my 10 tables.

Why the age limit of 21?

Perhaps your plan is to just get a ton of people to put money on your site so you can earn the interest?

Everyone would at least look at a rake free site.

However...

The point of a business is to make money. Nobody starts a business just to give people a great way to play poker.

The only way your one table rule is ever going to go anywhere is if it makes more money than allowing more than one table either by bringing in more money or costing less.

How is your site going to make money?

How is your site going to make more money by limiting players to one table?

they'll be volunteers who share in his vision. He'll compliment and thank them a lot to get them to stick around.

Tuff, the answer to your question is no, I'm not excited. I'd have to be crazy to deposit into a site that will be shut down tout de suite by the DOJ or state Attorneys General.

Everyone will be so thrilled to be playing at his site they wont want support.

Tuff, why on earth would people trust you with their money when you can't even admit the reason for no software/only one table is your own personal bias?

Your idea sounds alot like WPX, doesnt allow software there was 100% rakeback and you couldnt really multitable that much since there never was enough traffic AND debit cards were easily accepted, all those things considered its still the rockiest site online and has a huge bot problem, your site sounds very similar.

hey guys, what's wrong with you? When I read the OP I though "OMG he's going to be laughed off". But you punish him. He either fails (you lose nothing) or he succeeds (you gain good site). Laugh at him but don't discourage him.

[ QUOTE ]
I wouldnt support a site that forces me to only play one table, especially considering its only because the founder can't multitable so is pushing his bias on everyone else.

[/ QUOTE ]
it's becuase he won't be able to sell 24 advertisements at one single IP... I think he'll end up limiting the time even more.

[ QUOTE ]
Do you think anyone would choose to play at such a site as I have outlined?

[/ QUOTE ]
If you have fish there, count on me.

[ QUOTE ]
Sorry, everyone here thinks this is an awful idea.

[/ QUOTE ]
I don't! I think it's wonderful idea! And I wish you really succeed.
But I don't think you really succeed (you won't earn enough to pay all that costs and I'm not considering the advertisements costs).

Tuff,

We had/have this site. It was called WSEX. It's a site attached to a sportsbook, with no rake (yes yes blah blah blah contributed is different, who cares; certainly the fish don't know the difference), no hand histories to speak of, and also nobody playing on it. Except for that bot ring, which, hilariously, turned out to be the sole thing keeping the games running in the first place.

There are several lakes in the region, and lots of fisherman. All of the lakes except one are suffering severely from over fishing. All the fisherman have dozens of poles, some nets, and even the odd stick of dynamite.

OH I got it! You are gonna be the only one allowed to multi tabling (without limitations) [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

kidding. The fish don't care so much if you can't play many tables but don't bother with multi tabling nits cause as I said you won't sell enough advertisements even for an average single-tabler...
