    Default Lose the Money Transfers forum?

    It seems to me like it causes a lot of hassle and threatens to bring a bad name to our site. I don't see any benefit of the forum to make it worthwhile having.

    Just my 2p

    We all discussed this in the mod forum already. All the mods were in favour of getting rid of the transfer section because of the amount of headaches it has caused. It does bring a lot of extra traffic to the site though so KidRed doesnt want it gone (which to be honest I can understand).

    Sorry guys, its not going anywhere.
    Lots of good rakeback options at http://www.rakeguard.com/?raf=KRE8R

    KRE8R probably has about seventy college funds in his NL5 roll.

    It brings alot of extra traffic but the majority of them are either a) scamming scumbags or b) get scammed by scumbags and probably never return. Does he make much money through this?

    Surely he'd rather attract high volume decent poker players who click on his affiliate links and generate him profit whilst also improving the standard of posts on the forum and therefore attracting more posters.

    Obviously I suck at business.

    .
    For Free Money, Rakeback and some 6x Ongame bonuses, I recommend PokerSource.

    I recommend Cardrunners for superb poker coaching. It was honestly the single biggest improvement in my game signing up there! Sign-up fee might seem steep, but it pays itself back within weeks.

    if u wanna trade:

    sign up to PFO

    get your post count up

    contact some users privately

    make a smart transaction

    agreed that forum is a piece of garbage. Just disappointing to see so many ppl trying to make a quick buck by effing some1. Would be nice if there was some type of escrow service.

    The money he earns is from website hits, the more hits the more he can charge advertisers, simple as that. Good players, bad players, makes no difference. The advertisers want quantity, not quality.

    Quality leads to more posters which = more money.
