We are contemplating a self moderated thread in order to more effectively address the issues of our great players as many questions are lost in the spam comments and remarks. 

On the the one hand it will allow us to focus on assisting players, but on the other our thread won't be bumped as much which always helps us attract more visitors. 

Any thoughts are appreciated.

I think you should clarify what you consider spam and provide guidelines so players know is ok and not ok to post.

Many of your great players questions are ignored because you choose to ignore them.  Sometimes they just choose to accept that their question was ignored, other times they ask the question again.  And again. And again.  Thinking that maybe they will eventually receive an answer.


For example Dooglus posted this on April 7th at 1030 am:

After an extensive review and research, Betcoin Poker was able to pinpoint the programming error that caused the rake overcharges from 10/30/15-12/9/15 and is providing refunds to players or a Daily Coin Ticket based on the following criteria. If a player played at Betcoin Poker using the 100% rakeback promo, the player will technically owe funds to Betcoin. Instead of taking these funds from the player account, the player can create a ticket requesting a Daily Coin Ticket in lieu of the account review.

Each player requesting a refund of the overcharged rake must create a ticket here: www.betcoin.ag/support. The review of the player account will take up to 10 business days to complete. If the player owes Betcoin funds, the player's account will be deducted those funds, however if the player chooses to accept a ticket in lieu of a review, the player will be awarded the ticket.

I don't think I fully understand.

Are you saying that you may have accidentally taken too much money from me, but in order to find out whether you did I have to forego a free tournament entry?

How am I meant to know whether the value of the proposed bribe is bigger or smaller than the amount you accidentally took from me before you tell me how much you took from me?

Couldn't you just tell me how much you took? It shouldn't be too hard to make a list of how much each player is short:

  Loop over all the hands in the affected period {
    Calculate the amount of rake taken
    Subtract the amount of rake that should have been taken
    Assign the difference to the relevant player totals
  }

If that's too much, could you maybe send me my hand history over the relevant period so I can do the math for myself please?

Thanks.

That same day and the next, you posted 3 times in the same thread (this thread) :

The PLAYPEN is back guys check the lobby!

Then Dooglus asked again for a response:

Please respond.

Do you consider the first post by Dooglus spam?

What about when he said "please respond".  Was that considered spam?

Are these the types of posts you would delete in your own self-moderated thread?

What one person considers spam might not be considered spam to someone else.  In the example above, many would consider Betcoin.ag to be the party guilty of spamming.

Do you consider this post I'm making right now spam?

I would be in favor of a self-moderated thread for the reasons you mentioned. It would also make it easier for those of us who are already well aware (or not well aware, but don't care anyways) of all the issues regarding the site which people have concerns about to not have to scroll through all the same old stuff over and over and over again just to see if there are any new updates or news regarding the site and the games.

The campaign thread is so much more better and less cluttered ever since it became self-moderated. XiaoXiao's affiliate thread is much more useful and coherent for his rakers.

Allow those who feel the need to continuously remind everyone and keep people - new and old - aware of what they perceive to be egregious misdeeds and scammery by betcoin.ag to do so in their own threads as much as they want, to their heart's content. They have every right to do so, just as you have every right to create a new self-moderated thread.

It would also make it easier for those interested in the nefarious goings on of betcoin.ag to keep up to date on things or post their own updates and findings/evidence by checking out the thread(s) of those who wish to inform people of such things and not have to scroll through stuff they aren't interested in such as site updates, tourney info, affiliate offerings or shill posts. Their threads will be just as easily visible as yours for people who might be interested either way. A win for betcoin.ag, a win for betcoin haters and those with a personal agenda, a win for those wishing to keep the community informed of betcoin's bad behavior, a win for players, a win for prospective players, a win for all.

As far as your self-moddded thread not getting bumped as much, I think it would be fair to post anything you feel your customers would be interested in knowing, such as any important updates, promotions, significant/new tournaments, important dates, issues, player news, improvements, resolutions, etc just as you currently do now in addition to dealing with customer's issues, questions, grievances and feedback.

Classic Twitchy. When someone has a different opinion than you, the person must be a shill for X or Y.
-snip-

On Betcoin.

I am “Vae Victis” there.

Ok, now I know who you are and am pretty confident that you're not a paid shill or alt account of Xiao or Betcoin.
Can you really blame me for being suspicious?  I would be a fool not to be.  This is Betcoin we're talking about here.

If you think I am siding with Xiao, I have no side but only the poker players’ one.

Then we are on the same side.

All of your questions concerning Xiao’s personal deal have nothing to do with the poker players. It does not matter how much he has on Casino/Sportsbook, how much he makes and so on.

As I said once again in my post, players can be disappointed that he has no pull on Betcoin policies considering his special relationship. And I have been myself quite a critic towards him for that. But past that, you just have to treat him as your random poker affiliate.

What does it mean ? At the end of the day for the poker players the only question is: does this affiliate deliver on what he is offering ?
The Answer is: yes.

Xiao has personally endorsed Betcoin for over 2 years now as a poker player and member of this community.  When there's any discussion about Bitcoin Poker, he pretends to be an impartial third party and makes posts like this one and this one.   He also has his own threads on multiple sites/subforums that he has been spamming only good things about Betcoin for years now.

He tries to gain trust by acting as if his "rakeback service" is motivated by his generosity and selfless desire to do good for Bitcoin and Online Poker as a whole.  He want's everyone to trust him and believe he is only promoting Betcoin because of how great they are not because of the amount of money he's made and stands to make in the future.  So he lies and tells people he barely makes any money from his players sports/casino action because they only play poker.

When I started posting the reality of Betcoin last year, (from the BBJP, to the missing VIP rewards to the over charged rake and constant lies) he handled it similar to how Betcoin did.  Ignore the situation.  If that doesn't work make the situation seem like really no big deal.  If that doesn't work lie about the situation and attack the credibility of whoever is complaining.

According to Xiao, I'm mentally ill, a retard, brain dead, a degenerate, a dos attacker, an "abuser of trust" (still dunno what he means there), and when other people complain about Betcoin - he there's a good chance he'll declare they are just me using alt accounts.  

He says all this stuff because he doesn't want people to believe what I say and he won't have a reasonable discussion about the issues for the same reason Betcoin won't.  There's no excuse for their behavior.  

Xiao and NiceSoft, over 2 years ago:

reg'd looking forward to playing as soon as i get my coins

Great, make sure to pm me if you have any issues.  I am sort of like an unofficial ambassador to Betcoin.  I know they are kind of overwhelmed right now from support.

Yeah Junko.

Good lookin out for all those people who play on Betcoin but don't care about Betcoins scummy behavior and also don't want to have to go to Betcoins website or forum or twitter to hear about any news or updates about Betcoin.

Scumbag.

Excellent feedback.  Many Bitcointalk members and staff have urged us to do this for months.  This thread is now closed. 

Here is our poker lobby when Betcoin Poker first launched just under 3 years ago, we have come a long way but there is still a long way to go.  Thank you everyone for your support:
