westside8 wrote A feature similar to that is already available.Â It is at the bottom under a poster's name on the left menu bar beside their posts.

Sorry, but this feature is useless. It simply replaces their post with "This user is ignored". The thread is still listed in the section, and under "unread posts".

Ignoring the whole "which section" problem, I have 2 questions. Is bumping allowed? If so, when will the forum guidelines be modified, and if not, will this ever be enforced?

lol.

Yeah, they do still show up, how annoying! I've PM'd a couple of the raked illegal games to let them know how I feel rather then giving them a free bump...

I completely agree. IMO, we could use a "Ignore all posts from the member" feature.

Just curious, but how patient? It's been over 2 weeks since the last "official" reply, and over 2 months since this thread started. Due to the lack of enforcement, the problem continues to get worse.
Beanie...can't imagine what you are complaining about...I mean seriously, only 14 Club announcements on the "Home Page" first page...
I strongly suggest that all Home Games now be posted in the "Advertising" Section, as lord knows no one ever posts there.

Advertising?? Advertising?!?!??! How can you call the club games posts advertising??????!!!

Those people are simply announcing a service they provide. A service that, if you consume, they will likely make lots of money, a so-called "profit" if you will. A profit that they make after providng a service to us.

But if you're tempted to call posting a service in the hopes of making money, "advertising", then, I must say that, welll.... that you're, ummmmm...... ahhh....

HEY LOOK! IT'S A DISTRACTION!!!

you would :D

Seriously, though, it's almost impossible for a person who wants to invite some players over for a game to post a simple note in that section and not have it bumped right off the page in an hour. Gotta define what IS a Home Game, and what IS a CLUB game and give each their own section. Hell, I'll even volunteer to moderate both sections...free of charge :D

Does the advertising page offend you, Cole? Is it really that hard to click on another thread to view club games? I'm sure your Mum can help you.

Saying that I don't think they should be posted in advertising but in another thread possibly entitled, "Illegal Games and Where to Bust Them".

Yeah, because cops looking to find illegal club games would never think to look in the Home Games section.

I like "home games" and "other games". Other games can also include the rake-free bar tourneys etc. so it's not like it's just a "club games" section.

Are you kidding? No way they would think to look there. It's a perfect cover.

Besides, it is not like anything is really being done about small illegal games in the first place.

STR82ACE

Seriously, it wouldn't matter where it posted, if they wanted to bust up a game ANYWHERE they will. They have other resources to utilize to locate illegal games, and most likely they have a pretty good idea exactly where they are mostly being played anyway. Breaking up the current section into two separate ones isn't going to make it a bigger risk whatsoever.

I doubt many of you saw my new topic in the Home Games section earlier today. I simply requested the location of the pokerforum.ca pool so I could pee in it. In addition I tried to give Wes a friendly little kick in the butt to do something about the situation detailed in this thread. Within minutes it was deleted (technically just moved to thread jail haha) and I have not received an explanation as to why. I can understand that the post was deleted because there was no useful information in it, and it definitely did not belong in the Home Games section, but I would really appreciate an explanation. I have had posts of mine deleted before (ok, once... I felt like such a rebel!) and I received an explanation promptly. Maybe it's just the slowness of PMs of late, so I will give the mods the benefit of the doubt.

The purpose of that post was to test to see if the mods were enforcing the rules. It surprised me to learn that apparently they are... except for good ol' rule #7.

Anyway, I have been on MSN with Wes (westside8, a moderator of this forum for those of you who don't know)... and he says he is waiting to hear back from Neil (sloth, forum owner), so I guess I can understand how his hands are tied.

P.S. If this post gets deleted I am simply going to RAMPAGE. Have a nice day.

What is brutal is these club owners are now bumping irrelevant threads like "under new management". Who cares...shouldn't this be under the advertising section. When will the madness end.

If the clubs don't get there own section that differs from the home games maybe they should have one-post only which they can expand on or delete from that way the same club won't have 3 or 4 different posts on the first page.

It is really getting out of hand....hopefully Sloth will put an end to it soon.
