Yeah man, I see what you're saying and I think you'rte right, it probably was inevitable in the long term. But introducing The Beast and BCP coming over giving a traffic boost sped up that process by like 10x.
Even with fishy games and fast cashouts there are still grinders that will refuse to play on networks with low traffic. I remember Everleaf was fast cashouts and RIDICULOUSLY soft games...like free money good, I was winning for like 15bb/100+. I repeatedly recommended this network to my friends, but I don't think even one ended up playing there. My point I guess is now that BCP is here and everyone is talking about what a nice traffic boost it has brought and how WPN is now on the rise, this is creating a snowball effect that will only make things worse as time goes on.
I think I'm probably just gonna play here through the end of the month, collect my Beast money and cashout, and then go back to Revolution. You're right, I don't play professionally, so if I have to wait 2 months for a cashout it's really no big deal, I don't need that money to pay the rent. For others that did play on here professionally I feel very bad for them, and I hope they can still make ends meet now that the games are pretty terrible during the week.
EDIT: Actually, with the OSS next month, the cash games might be better, I might stick around for one more month.
