advertisers posting
What is your policy about advertisers posting here as part of the posting process ? It doesnot seem normal to me that the advertiser is part of the postings. On most sites the advertiser is not part of the forum, but has a banner or box ad. While they can have an employee post as an individual, instead of as the advertisor secretly, it is often detected by most, or suspected as they write couched, biased posts on behalf of their employer, or FRIEND. While i appreciate the PTC posts as Ian is communicating personally and trying to improve the ADW process for the horseplayer, I find myself resenting the Youbet stuff for some reason, maybe my bias vs their company as I have had problems with them over tech stuff in the past and found their customer service wanting in resolving my problems. My buddy also had a similar experience with similar problems and switched out too. It would seem they are taking a reactive approach to keep from losing business, as many of their charges for services arenot smaller player friendly, as a large proportion of their business is for whales at IRG. They want to be all things to all players, but they try to exclude smaller players by use of charges, for deposits, replays, video, stats, etc. Of course those who get comped and/or rebated, can't be bothered by all this chatter.
