Not that this belongs in this thread, but FTP reversed any points conversions made after BF.

Haha just a month before the site went down I ordered a flatscreen from my points. If that ever comes through i'm going to donate it to charity.

Nobody in this thread likes you, why do you even post in here? I'm really asking. Are you a middle child?

One person talks to one person that says maybe we will do this or we might do that and everyone is spending the money already.

It's ridiculous

Actually most people just said it was positive news, which it is, and a couple people said they are expecting to get 0 so any money back would be awesome. So who exactly is spending the money already? Why do you continue to post in this thread if you are convinced we are getting nothing?

It's ridiculous

LOL, please ban anyone who asks about getting compensated for points.

I bet he'll tell his kids that Santa and the Tooth Fairy don't exist too.

I'm fascinated by this unexpected notion that there might be some sort of % paid out on Cereus funds.

So who stole the money exactly?

That was a lot of money, no way it can go unseen by someone.

I meant TheHip consistently spoiling any glimmer of hope of us getting our money back akin to someone ruining the idea of Santa delivering presents at Christmas for a young child?

What really confuses me is, right around pg 268 of this thread a lot of people were getting $500 checks months after B.F They were non U.S players and its totally bull**** on UB's end and the DOJ's end. SCOTT or RICH can ya shed some light on that for me??? And isn't there 5-7 million supposedly left out of the 55million owed from this ordeal?? Why cant they distribute that so we can get a small %% of the money we were all ****ed on..

After BF, Leggett had a small pool of cash that he used to keep the villagers from storming the castle. I've had affiliates and one player rep tell me they got special treatment in getting their balances off while regs got the $250-500 treatment. At most, they handed out a few mil.

Without your intervention, Mr. Holder, who knows where we'd be! (would probably have our money!). Anyways, my sincerest appreciation and gratitude to all of you at the DOJ- thanks for looking out and ensuring that justice be done!

justice would be the DOJ not extorting businesses out of billions of dollars like they did pokerstars. all pokerstars did was operate a legit business in the US, and the DOJ decided to **** all that up.

let's quit acting like the gov't did the "stand up thing" by giving us our money back. it took 3 ****ing years, it still hasn't even happened so it might still get held up, and the pros and affiliates all got ****ed. **** the DOJ, **** eric holder.
