That review is not from Rakeback Nation, though it is the number 1 review in Google

The review is from a website which heavily promotes Ignition. As I was reading the review of Global on the website, a popup urging me to join Ignition popped up.

The website also has a "review" of Ignition, titled "13 reasons to Join..."

Liar, Liar, Pants on Fire!

1. Not from Rakeback Nation.

2. It was a cut and paste.

Thank you for sharing, though.

In all fairness, the sites that promote Global talk down upon Ignition. So it goes both ways.

Furthermore, no popups would hit you on that review unless you attempted to exit the site because the pop-up is "exit intent".

Since when is it OK to post entire articles without attribution?

Very interesting to read this article.

Especially considering the site that published the article asked us to enter into an affiliate relationship with them a couple of weeks ago and we declined.

I am sure that their review was not biased by this though and that these things are in no way related.

Oh well, everyone is entitled to their opinion so best of luck to them.

I don't like this review so let me say that they tried to be an affiliate and we said no , Now they give us a bad review . LOLOLOLOOLOLLOOOOOOOLLLLL!

Come on JOEY give me a break with this non sense . How about you spill the beans on how your company does not segregate player sweeps funds? Lets hear about that.

Never, even with attribution.

OP, you're welcome to post an excerpt of material from another site, and it should be attributed to the author. Cut-and-pasting entire articles/reviews from another site is intellectual property theft, made even worse by not correctly attributing it to the author. Given that 2+2 is a poker book publisher, such things are taken pretty seriously here, and this kind of post is usually edited or deleted when spotted by a mod, as I have done here.

They have responded to rake questions in the past, do some digging. I am sure if their position changes the way we would like to see it change, they will post it here.

I don't mind if you put it back up and attribute it to the correct author.

I play on Global because the micros are beatable despite the atrocious rake. I will move all my action (50k+ hands/month) once I'm rolled for 200nl.
