No one is disagreeing that Merge has screwed some of their players royally, but damn dude get over yourself. Nobody cares anymore, especially Merge.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't you the one who engaged me in the first place and continues to do so? Ah, yes, you were. Feel free to not respond if you don't want me to respond back to you, it isn't that complicated. I apologize for posting my thoughts and feelings in the Merge *discussion* thread though.

I must say that Merge, far and away, has the best software of any USA facing site. Clean, crisp, mono colored backgrounds, customizable (sp), fast tables, etc.

They answer my infrequent emails promptly.

The traffic is better than average for USA microstakes cash tables, heck they usually have a healthy number of full ring games going .

Lots of wah wah going on lately...I mean, if the network makes a decision that you don't like, maybe go someplace else or try to effect the change you desire instead of bellyaching on a forum?

Try to effect the change we desire? Who do we contact, Stephen Moore?

If you're going to be a grammar nit, at least try to be correct about it.

sorry if anyone spoke on this... my buddy is on sportsbook and earns vip points still just like old times, and uses them to enter mtts and sngs just like before. *he's also a fish.

This.

Effect can be either a verb or noun, but rarely used corectly as a verb. Effect is often used incorrectly when affect should be used. Bobo Fett used effect correctly as a verb.

Join the Grammar nits thread if you want to hash this out in gory detail.

Just to confuse things further, affect can also be used as a noun, and it's pronounced with the accent on the first syllable when it is!

I have a hard enough time with just basic spelling. For me, using affect and effect properly is pretty much a crap shoot.

Because this is still a problem that occurs almost every session, I used the "send us an e-mail" option that comes up when you click on Contact Support. At least this way I got e-mails confirming that they actually received it.

I sent screenshots of the Join Waitlist dialog box and the table where I was seated with the table name highlighted to emphasize that it was not "Fast" as the selected radio button in the dialog box indicated.

The response:

I'm getting the distinct impression that they don't realize this is supposed to be a part of the current functionality.

Hi,
I´ve been restricted to 1 table one month ago on carbon and moved on to sportsbook. After one month I am restricted to 2 tables there.

On pokerscout there are lots of skins for the Merge network. Are there any which are not that thrustworthy?
Recommendations?

Best Regards.
Seb

If I have an account on Sportsbook.ag, can I also create one on Carbon? Or is Sportsbook/Carbon the same player pool?

Sorry if stupid question.

Now you're just trolling, and not very effectively.

I once had a professor who would demeaningly ask someone in class "do you own a dictionary, and have you ever opened it?" No one is disputing that effect is a noun. What we are disputing is that effect is only a noun. Some people have enough knowledge to know effect is *usually* used as a noun, but somehow never learned the circumstances when that is not the case.
