You really need to read this forum, religiously, to get the best information available. There is a huge amount of information posted all the time that are great opportunities for different levels of players. Between that and the Whoring 101 Guide, there is a wealth of information available for the new "starting out" player. (Not even getting into all the site reviews, the bonus grid, etc.) It does take time and effort to digest, of course, but there is nothing wrong with that.
I rarely have any problem answering *specific* questions about particular sites ("Hey, I've been doing the PokerPlex and Bet365 monthlies, but I'm looking to expand. How are the TotalBet and UKBetting monthlies, or some of the other Crypto monthlies?"), but I rarely like to answer questions that are generic enough that it feels like I need to do the research for the poster, and then write them a roadmap to follow. I don't usual... | | Read Entire Entry |

read the frigging forum.Read the frigging forum, oh? did I tell you to read the frigging forum? There is so much info posted on this forum that you should very seldom have a question and I'm not joking about that either.In almost 12 months I think I've only posted one question.

The first response to this thread by SmackMBUp was neither rude nor worthless. The 101 Guide is a treasure chest. The reasons people won't give you all the answers are different. Some don't want to waste their own time researching for you. Some want you to learn so you can become a productive member of this site. And yes, some are A-holes. Personally, I hate to see the tremendous time and effort that went into the 101 Guide go to waste.
The answers to some questions are often blurry because everyone has particular preferences and all sites/bonuses are not the same. You need to experience the sites - the tables - the players - the software - to see what you like. Then you can make the best decisions based on your style of play, BR, etc. Going through the 101 Guide (several times even) will get you knowledge while you build a BR - WIN/WIN. | | Static Link |

Good manners, you know? Have you ever seen a teacher telling a six years old kid "YOU RETARD WHY YOU COULDN'T READ WHEN YOU WERE BORN?"? In bonus whoring, I think, it's almost the same: if we live in a community we must help each other
Isnt this a community where we help each other out? I mean, we share the information we find on sites and other forums. Bonuswhores website and forum is like an open book of guidence. The only requirement is that you actually do some reading, i mean come on, do we need to spoon-feed you too?. No need to insult people, but if you are not willing to spend the time researching you dont belong here.

That doesn't make sense really - anyone can look around for as long as they want. The problem is that some people think that their time is more valuable than that of others.
It seems to me that you are just re-enforcing what tarheel1 said about current attitudes.
IMHO.

William Hill is good, I've almost finished whoring the Prima sites that are worthwhile. Will sign up for Carribean Sun in a couple of days. Have money in Poker Now for an easy 100. Still have a Party reload and heard a rumour on here that Empire will offer a reload.
Check the Bonus Grid - it's an outstanding piece of kit....

It will bring you the 700 posts asking how do you cash out at Bet 365.
hey all the regulars around here want is for this forum to not become 2+2 where you cant find a dam thing you are looking for. Most don't hate noobs its the noobish actions. but its the trait of the current Generation offended if someone doesn't give the what they want. or admonish them for something they do wrong.
You can flame me or tell me to get a life whatever.
Im not speaking to Bonsey Im speaking to all the attitude pumping, trolling newbs out their looking to show that they won't be dissed by anyone.

| Posted by: IceboxCharlie at December 31, 2005, 1:29 am | | Topic: I want to whore like the big girls Forum: Bonus Whores | Wow, lets see, Bonesy your question was about as good as calling a grocery store and asking if they have any beans. Had you had a specific question or at least one a little less broad I'm sure HeellHo would have tryed to help you as well as some of the other people here.
I have stood opposed to flaming around here and still do. However I also think that people who are too lazy to even try to find at least enough info to make an informed question should be given the cold shoulder. Someone mentioned that some of us spend hours here in the forum. Thats right, research pays off. It was also said that the searches pull up a lot of crap. I have found a lot of good stuff that I was'nt even looking for during searches. There is a wealth of good information in this forum that will pay handsome dividends to those who are willing to put a little time into it.
Money is'nt for nothing and the chicks are'nt free either.

So basically because he doesn't spend all day on this site like you and know every thread inside and out you talk shit? Like you weren't ever a newbie here That's exactly the problem.

Though I'm not going to defend any posters here, the fact is a search on this topic results in an answer in less than a minute. It isn't like it's anything tough. Most people are just to lazy to take the time or make the effort. Long time posters tend to get tired of seeing the same posts over and over. A little efort would go a long way in many cases.

Been doing the 365 bonus monthly and not much else. There just seems to be so many sites out there, I'm getting overloaded trying to select which one. 365 was the no-brainer. Are there monthly bonuses out there that people just do over and over like 365? Pokerplex is out for me because I can't get the software to load. I play mostly 1/2 full ring limit. Also, are there bonuses out there now that people just don't want to pass up? I keep getting reload offers from full tilt, titan and others like that but they are friggin near impossible to get playing 1/2.
Thanks for reading and sorry if this was answered before. | | Static Link |
