I have no doubt if you called and spoke to a manager and politely pointed out how much time and effort you spent waiting and preparing to play in your 5 cent freeroll they would give you $10 as a goodwill gesture or an entry in some other tournament, because your complaint is truly insignificant but if genuine then they will be nice about it.
As is, you are choosing the laughable role of "alerting the media" about something nobody will care about, so while you are a hero in your own mind, that is as far as it goes, and you have nothing to show for it. Again, -EV move.
I just want to point out how refreshing it is to play good cop/bad cop with riggies and actually be the relatively good cop for a change with spade somehow being the bad cop!!!
The dark side of shilldom is a powerful force...
All the best.
You are missing the point somewhat, I am not grovelling over a couple of dollars, the point is that they were willing to pocket that freeroll prize fund.
That says someting about them and it aint very nice.
Even if I had got my 2 dollars I still know they are willing to cheat players so I ain't willing to play there anyway, I don't like the sites attitude, it stinks.
Also you are wrong when you say nobody will care about it, some mugs might not but plenty of others will.
My +EV move is leaving the site. Never liked it anyway, it's tournement buy ins are a total rip-off, no surprise there though, it ties in with what I said before, if they are happy to ripi you off in one area you can be dammed sure they will do it in every area possible because it is in their nature, essential they see their business model as ripping people off and well I just don't like that very much.
I don't want money they have stole from other players either, I'd rather shoplift.
