Ich bin aus Deutschland geboren, aber mein Deutsch ist schrecklich. Nutblocker braucht einen Editor IMO

Napsus, who runs/owns Nutblocker - you, Skjervoy? How is it monetised - affiliate deals, rakeback, subscriptions etc??

Obv. you don't have to answer the above but I'm just interested cos my day job is as a web dev.

Actually I think the whole poker/VIP scheme thing is ridiculous, rake should be reduced and we should live or die by our profits at the table, but that would require a fundamental shift in attitude by the sites which isn't going to happen any time soon. By all means give your customers rewards but when they account for such a massive % of their winnings something's wrong.
i think pokerstars vip is very good and reward those who grind hard. its fair.

the huge gap between 500k and 1m vpp makes sense. stars dont want lose too much money w their rakeback program, so what pays the guy who hits 1m vpp, is that guy who plans to go for 1m, but fails and end at 800k vpp.

Wasn't there very long, less than a year, my dad was teaching English in a German school when I was born.

Yeah I think SNE is good value and I'm very grateful for it, don't get me wrong, but it's only good value for those who are capable of making 1m VPP, and that's not very many people, however good at poker they might be.

I just think in general terms that poker shouldn't be about volume, it should be more fun, whatever that means, and obviously the way things are at the moment is detrimental to that. So while I like zoom and SNE personally from a selfish point of view, it's gotta be bad long term for the games, and I hope Stars don't lose sight of that. I don't have any brilliant ideas to fix this, btw...

It looks as though napsus is getting a second valuable signup on the same day... not bad, not bad... (You'll have quite a few bugs and aesthetic shortcomings there to work on, shimmy Think of chess.com as an analogy, I bet you know its forum interface.)

Napsus beat me to it, but sent you a PM as well.

Edit: mostly want a place for PLO regs to hang out and have fun / talk PLO while running some free competition etc while we also learn some wordpress (.com) and vbulletin (the forums).

No secret that we both have ~40 free strategy articles in our forums (Bronze) while we also offer more articles (Silver) for a fee or for those raking, blogging or being helpful in our forums.

I'm happy to answer any question but not sure the SSPLO BBV thread is the right place.

Can also follow Nutblocker on Twitter if you want more info about the site.

Would you like me to ship you $3.50 at Stars so that you apply the magic to make Brazil the champions? (J/k, I don't believe in your powers.)

I'm rooting for brazil since WC 1994, that was when I got into football. Romario and later Ronaldo were my absolute favs during my childhood.

I can't remember when I started hating the germans tho

(Soviele Hackfressen in einem Team, Müller, der Bundesjogi, Siegfried der Drachentöter im Tor, Lukas "meine Hobbies sind Fussball, Playstation und Fussball auf der Playstation" Podolski, hab ich Müller schon erwähnt? Hoffentlich nur noch einmal Deutschlandlied an dieser WM...)

Ich freu mich immer wenn die Ösis in anderen Sportarten rocken

Das musst du die Ösis hier selbst fragen, ich selbst bin Schweizer
(Hab aber ne Ösi Grossmutter)

Das Spiel um Platz 3 ist doch ein bisschen wie der UEFA-CUP, was für Verlierer

Gutes Argument, wenn es wie heute gegen die wahrscheinlich größte Auswahl an Pissgesichtern, Primadonnen und Comic-Figuren weltweit geht Nebenbei bemerkt hast du die größten Nervensägen nicht einmal erwähnt. Kleiner Tipp, fängt mit G an und hört mit Ötze auf.
