No, this account was not to bash anyone in anyway, as it seems yours was created in the opposite manner. Your futile attempt to vilify, and discredit me is unwarranted. If, in fact you are as you have appeared from the get go, someone with serious vested interest in Amaya/Pokerstars, you should take a good hard serious look at the content of my posts, and the history that surrounds them. They not only represent a serious
ON GOING PROBLEM on the tables, but a severely flawed structure of enforcement/lack thereof. To think millions of dollars can be won by bots, while these "professionals" whose supposed "JOB" is to detect these things, goes undetected for years yet is detected by a guy sitting at home at a desk while watching Xhamster is not only disappointing in the context of " we could have done more", it's down right suspicious. There is MILLIONS of dollars at stake and this is happening and it's justified by a 5 second PR statement.
The same bs is taking place with datamining. And now, the weak statement made by Baard is being trolled about with a urgent twist via twitter, via the Pokerstars spam accounts as something Pokerstars is taking very seriously which is just sheer nonsense in every respect.
Datamining has gone on for years, a thread was opened on July 3rd of this year and quickly closed after great posts on July 9. There, it was suggested that all that needs to be done is turn off the tournament search feature. We are told Pokerstars are "working hard" to stop this. That is 110% bull OR as also suggested in this article, Pokerstars needs to overhaul the inept security department because they truly are useless. OR, maybe those advertised amazing detection methods aren't so amazing after all. Anyway you slice it this smells like absolute funky drawers.

Very interesting to go back and read all the posts in this thread and see the current post by Baard stating they are working really hard, and than watch the pokerstars video on it.

I understand it's the job of the PR department to sugar coat EVERYTHING and make current and potential customers feel safe, however this whole situation in relation to those
BOTS,
how they were caught, who they were caught by and how much if any of that money was redistributed to the victims has been silenced by Pokerstars. This is now a publicly traded company and this is a SERIOUS flaw in game integrity and player protection. This is MILLIONS OF DOLLARS and should be lionked with the serious datamining problem that is also taking a TON of money out of the economy. I hope its not as easy as disabling the search feature
Pokerstars, are you going to issue refunds to the victims of the bot scandal? Are you going to issue refunds to all the players currently being cheated at spin and goes?
