| Dude's posting the freeroll password post in a bunch of threads. The principle of it seriously has me ripped. Remove him from the freeroll if you can, or if he were to cash, award him NOTHING. Rick's generous enough to put these together, but they are not hand outs. You have to give something(IE participation in the forum) to receive. |

| I completely agree--the whole point of trying to engage people in the forum is lost when someone does something like this. |

| I concur! If you look back at all the posts i made last night ppl helped me only to the extent that they were letting me know that i was on the right track...no one should ever be able to do that and he/she should be banned from this tourney and possibly future ones! |

| Posting the password like that is completely bush league. Things like this is why I think it's best when the password is posted only a day before the start. Rick does a great job with these trying to bring people into the forum, and posting the password out of spite defeats the purpose. |

What a goddamn mess this entire operation has turned out to be. Half the board is filled with people screaming and yelling about the freeroll, 95% of which are complete strangers just trolling for the password.
Ooh, how exclusive, how difficult to find the password. 700 people SOMEHOW figured it out, enough to make it your average freeroll clusterfnck. Every table I sit at is going to be filled with strangers, and the ultimate rewards will be given to nameless, faceless play money scavengers.
In what way is this fun? |

I couldn't agree with you more Jobe.
I think the Admins/Mods need to make a forum usergroup, with a Hidden section of the forum only visable to members in said usergroup. Once someone is a recognized member of the board with a certain # of posts, they are allowed to see the "Hidden" forum by way of membership into the usergroup. That way Rick or any of the other admins can post the forum freeroll passwords and only the people who arnt total Jackasses can find 'em. Lets say a 200 post minimum for entry into the hidden freeroll password forum?  |

| I, too, agree with Jobe. This will not be as fun as usual--it will be more like a common freeroll. |
