The Prophet 22;117570 wroteVery true! See the post previous to yours! The difference is geeks can hide behind there keyboards now and feel like a king.
If you are a veteran of this board ask yourself where are all the old veterans gone. Pkrfce9 (Greg); magithighs (lou); GTA Poker (Dave); and many others. There aren’t many more post about how to play hands, etc. Since this new forum has come about the quality has gone down. How do we fix it? Any ideas?
Prophet 22
I find that there aren't nearly as many hand histories being posted with questions regarding the 'correct' play? Those used to be a regular submission around these parts. Although now whenever somebody posts one where they were beaten by an inferior hand, they are attacked for the 'bad beat' post.
We really need more stimulating poker theory discussions, and 'correct' play comparisions. Those seem to be the most worthwhile discussions, since there are so many ways to play a hand correctly. I think we also need to find a way to encourage people to ask questions that they don't know they answer too. Lately, I don't think the majority of new posters would feel comfortable asking the 'simple' poker questions.
We need a few more moderators, people who have the right to remove replies that are insulting to the Original poster. Those are the ones that do the most damage to this forum, because they completely discourage those people from posting in the future. (and if they feel like removing some spam once and a while that's ok too). :P
