    and as a bonus, posting your name bumps up your posting count by +1.

    I say good riddance, might stop all the pointless post's and reply's by certain people, who are so desperate to get into a freeroll they will reply with oneliner's to anything, that's why the same name's were on the list every week, sad.

      In part i agree with the sentiment here because the number of pointless posts has increased. But the majority of the field in these games have been made up of people who have genuinely added to the community here. Whether or not you agree with what they say they have put their opinions up there to be praised or ridiculed.  And where would this community be without Barry's constant deepstack reminders, Huflungpu blatant AntiColin propaganda, webbys continual bad beats, Vaigrets divine guidanceand bennydips somewhat strange humour.

      These are the things that make this forum great and they were there before the posters freeroll and they will still be here after it has long gone. The big positive from this freeroll has been to encourage people to join the community and partake in threads that are serious/stupid/funny/totally insane. And i think it has been a great succes as there are more posters floating around now than before. Hopefully they will stay despite the carrot being removed.

    yes i agree, it was a good idea to get the ball rolling on the forum, now that it is, lets settle for quality, and not quantity.

    As much as I loved the Poster's Freeroll I don't feel comfortable badgering them to provide us with freerolls. It's different with fee tournaments but the freerolls I see as bonuses.

    I have to agree with my namesake's latter sentiments here.

    I don't post often enough that I was ever going to make a big impression on the qualifications stakes, but somehow managed to get in there once, and I have to say that it was probably the most enjoyable game of poker I've had in a while. Whilst I'm sure for some getting into the money is important, the main thing I took from the game was just having a good time bantering with numerous people that I cant say I know, but have become aware of through their posts, and I'm sure that is how the majority of those who play considered it, as a game to play for fun with friends (albeit virtual ones).

    The one time I was in I finished 10th, 2 places off the money, but my memory of the game was poor old Hu having to contend with myself, Mr Mbro and Talon on his table, and listen to his anti Colin comments, whilst the 3 Colin's took chips off him :)

    So yes whilst I'm hardly likely to be a regular participant of the posters freeroll, I am more than happy to give support to its continuance.

    Aski :)

    i have rarely visited the forum over the past two weeks, due to it sometimes becoming unreadable. an entire plethora of sad sacks were so desperate to get into a freeroll, every thread became full of inane replies and accusations/counter accusations of people posting simply to get into a tuppence ha'penny game.

    well done sky for binning the freeroll.

    I take it you have never qualified for one of these tourneys then??. If you read more closley the taking part is more important than the prizepool. The banter/chat alone is worth an enterance fee from those who are not playing in it. I, like many people on here, will be sad to see it go.
