First of all, great post. I thought alot of what you posted. I am just not sure I could articulate my thoughts with the ability you do but I am sure I do not have the patience to type such a legnthy post, kudos to you.....Per the quote above, I can only wish "the American iew" but as was seen with the White Label Issue, Absolute Poker Issue, and other past and present issues, the playing public does not care (until it happens to him/her/it and then the fury) as they need their dopamine highs regardless and the industry knows it despite the BS propaganda studies by e-Cogra,etc........Earlier this evening, I mentioned in a conversation to a member of this board that the way that Frist did what he did was wrong but what he did was right! Do not blame the religious right on UIGEA, maybe some other agendas can be blamed but I really do not care......unfortunately to those that understand the real issues, the issues (and Board) seems to almost be a battle between a few players like yourself ersus numerous affiliates,webmasters,casino reps.,etc. who imo exhibit cult like characteristics so who knows....It disheartens that the select few honest and quality casinos,affiliates,webmasters,etc. have become innocent ictims.....I could keep going but then when would I stop???.....Obviously, I think am really done with onlines with maybe some occasional entertainment slot play......Others may not be done but if this industry does not learn how to regulate/self regulate they will be! There is way too much hubris throughout the online industry (kinda reminds me of the late 80's on Wall Street-great book's if history teaches anything are Liar's Poker and Barbarians At The Gate,you guys better learn quick)...The international trend already indicates that and do not blame your loyal players or even the so called fraudsters (kinda like a B and M blaming a professional cardcounter who may have the ability to grind away $100K/year)...not exactly bringing down those multi-billion dollar houses is it?.....Yep, I have taken all the fun out of online gambling
