yeah, i am affraid this would not be too different from what we can see at the tables noawadays, so i don't know if ongame would even notice the sitting out.

Why not just leaving ongame for a while instead?
Here is what i suggest :
1.one of us writes down our list of demands to ongame
2.each one of us creates an account at another network and stops playing at ongame at least for a while
3.each one of us forwards the "welcome mail" from the other network to his former ongame skin(s) with the list of demands

and another one who seems very very nice too : she can come earlier, and is available for a shorter period which is better for me because I have planned to play poker too these days and I don't want to change my agenda too much. But I feel like she is just a little bit less glittering.
Dunno which decision is EV+ in this case... any advice ?
lol
I still have not had any sessh with an escort girl
but some ladies are very tempting for only 1 buyin, so I was wondering how many of you guys have already tried this kind of experiment?

ofc, "escort" is just a romantic designation which also means "high level" professionnals.
The whore is play money < the hooker is small stakes < the escort is nosebleed.

This would make the games a complete fish fest. The regs who leave will quickly be replaced by new players, players moving up, players playing more, and many regs will return quickly when they realise how much value they're missing.

Satisfying regs is not 1/2 as important for sites as people seem to think it is. If they're fish regs will come.

Add this to the fact that your plan is the scumbags wet dream and it's a terrible idea.

@FrankShank :
you've got to make clear what you want : are you happy with what's going on at ongame network nowadays, yes or no?

if you are ok with it, then carry on but don't complain.
if you are not, than react and do something.
There again, poker is a reflection of life : there are people who complain but follow : most of "normal" people behave like that, complaining with their daily life but not making the effort to change it. And there are the other ones who act to get what they want and these are the ones who write history.

how many fishes do you see at Ongame nowadays? at nl600+, I can't see many, much less than there used to be 12 months ago.
Check Handbooster stats : whatever the limit, the 20 top winners don't even earn half the amount they used to earn 12 months ago.
if the sea gets dry, the fact that there is no shark won't help getting more fish.

1st : if the tables are empty, I don't think many new players will come suddenly from nowhere : I have an account on most poker networks and many networks are totally dead most of the day, with no nl400+ table running.
ask Tower if they are happy with there move at Cake which is an empty network, with no players.
2nd : let's imagine that this situation helps some players to move up because the competition is softer during this movement, which is definitely possible in some proportions : this complaint is shortview. So what? When Ongame has done the changes, you come back and now you enjoy softer competition with bad regs at the limits you are used to. I'd love to have more nl1K regs playing nl5K, more nl400 regs at nl1K, etc...

1.Regs are the ones who make possible playing 24/7. When you own a shop, you need sellers to welcome the clients during the opening hours. When you own a poker network, you need players to play together : you can't offer someone to play if you can't provide him an opponent. As regs, we are both sellers and clients.
2.Regs make rake, 24/7. According to you, when you analyze the hands played on a network in 24h, what % is played by regs, and what % is played by fishes ? Most of the hands are played by the regs, so most of the rake comes from the regs.
You underestimate the consumer's voice power, while nowadays it's more powerful than the vote.

There again : shortview. You think about the scumbags' interest 1st instead of thinking about your longterm interest.


The key factor for such a collective operation to be useful or not is the % of the network regs who collaborate.

Does anyone know how this affect bet24-players/ongame-network overall? All bet24-players will probably get transfered to unibet?

I think one of the main problems we have is that Ongame has been sold so basically what do they care about what happens to their company between now and the takeover?

Think of it like school where it was the last week until the summer holidays and the teachers let you do whatever you pretty much whatever you wanted for that last week.

The best time to take all the problems, seat blocking, scripting etc... to Ongame is when the new owners move in. I can't remember ever seeing a date for when that will happen though.

Does anyone know if multi accounting ongame is allowed? I'm 100% positive that "mooaaar" and "bigpot4me" are the same person. He sits like 6 empty 3 handed tables on each name all day. Is this allowed? Granted I don't know why he would want 2 names when he just bumhunts all day, but still.

I talked to my VIP manager at Bet24 and he said that they dont have much informations yet, what will happen with site, if it will stay part of Ongame network or they will move to another ,as Unibet is part of Microgaming....
04-11-2012 , 01:57 PM
But he assured me money is totally safe

I sent an email to ongame about this a week ago, but he is still camping on 100 tables...

It looks like they don't care :S
04-11-2012 , 04:56 PM
is there a way to completely remove the logos from the tables? you can see the logo above the raise button even if you use a mod. thx in advance
04-12-2012 , 11:21 AM
i think everybody should open more 3 max tables... what a joke!
04-12-2012 , 02:37 PM
I think everything got worse this month, all of a sudden boom. No idea why. Maybe it's just me and I haven't grinded a lot the past 2 months.

By everything I mean nitler/fisti sitouts, 3max tables madness, bumhunting
04-12-2012 , 04:34 PM
yeah lol at all the ******ed morons who start 3m table and just sit out vs everyone but the biggest fishes.
04-12-2012 , 09:56 PM
I said good bye to ongame haha good luck with the crap!
04-13-2012 , 04:14 PM
add OngamePlayer to the morons who sit out when the fish sits out at 3m tables! god how ******ed do u have to be.. luckily they all suck at poker and probably at life.. at least i hope so
04-13-2012 , 04:21 PM
Anyone that bumhunts like that should be ashamed of having a 1pt winrate lol.
04-13-2012 , 04:30 PM
Its so ridicolous, not only dont fisti, nitler and Bill not play but they go out of there way to make sure no one can play HU on all the tables they sit on. Which are all tables available when they are online.
04-13-2012 , 05:40 PM
just tell bill you are going to report him in chat, worked for me. and ladyclitoris is def the worst 3max bumhunter POS
04-13-2012 , 06:59 PM
the angel shooting/bumhunting that is happening on the high stakes tables recently is beyond ridiculous. Its almost impossible to play when billg and adolfN are sitting in and out every 30 seconds. I am very impressed that Frutiypicks and teutonik are trying to start tables under these conditions. I used to start a ton of tables at nl1k but I almost stopped doing this lately because of the parasites new tricks.
Just wrote a long email to my vip-manager about billgs and adolfNs behavior, ongame really need to stop them! Please send a mail to your skins and complain about them.
