The regulars on the forum have over time been responsible for a number of things which have made this site what it is today. They are the first, and often the only ones to welcome newcomers in the ''say hello'' thread. They offer help on a range of topics and queries every day. They sometimes have a sharp word for people attempting to run the site/ forum down and I confess I do it. But they offer help and advice to hundreds of new players, they don't knock the site every time they have a bad run and the forum would be in a poor state without them. Because they have known each other for some time they naturally stick together but they never obstruct anyone from being a regular. They provide humour and know-how to the forum and a lot of experience.
I go out of my way to help anyone that will benefit from my poker experience as do all the other regulars. It would be a sad forum if were made up of nothing but moaning minnies wanting to blame someone, anyone, for their bad run, bad connection, bad mood, bad hair day or whatever.
I know that Mere has helped scores of players when he's been asked (and probably a few when he hasn't) and if threads like this threaten his future here then that's really sad. I know if I were him I'd be feeling pretty fed up with it all.
This is an allegation regarding not just mere but a whole rack of forum regulars. I do know that mere pm'd this guy but the message wasn't abusive by any stretch of the imagination. Mere has rightly decided to stay out of this dispute which Ace seems intent on making a public mud slinging campaign. Ace has the pm but I doubt he will contact the mods with it because there is no abuse in it. Better for him to use the imagination of readers and let obscure allegations do the damage. He apparently has a number of these from other forum regulars. This I very much doubt. This is yet another attempt to discredit forum regulars. One of a number recently. I'm not sure what the reasoning is behind this but it's rather pathetic. Posted by elsadog

If you're going to quote at least google it and get it right.
Put up or shut up, sleazy allegations are easy. It's the classic cowards way. You complain about abuse but what do you contribute that is positive. You tag onto threads with unfounded and unprovable sleaze.
As I think has been said to you before, you're making a fool of yourself. I don't need to pm it because that's not abuse..... it's advice.
I notice you have no friends on your profile. If that's your problem I'll be your friend.

Methinks that you have not read or listened to any of the carefully constructed comments of Elsadog (who is spot on imo) and are once again resorting to childish and if i may say so unintelligent retorts.
In fact, i don't know why you are wasting your time on this thread. You are clearly not capable of holding a conversation without overuse of the expression "lol"
I have posted my last words on this thread, but if you do one thing tonight, please look yourself in the mirror and ask your self am i treating people the way that i wish to be treated myself? I fear the answer is no, because you have shown not one ounce of humility or decency at all. I challenge you to retract your wild allegations against Merenovice and to apologise unreservedly to him and to this community.
If you do this, well then you are a better man than you portray and im sure you will start to make friends on here.

your dad kofi annan couldn't have said it better greg lol ,
This classy '38year old MAN' (i use the term lightly) just goes around the forum posting complete and utter rubbish, just in the hope that it will provoke a response.
He even posted a comment on my recent total player interview saying 'NOT GETTING MY VOTE' To which i replied in a manner he'd understand, 'I DONT WANT YOUR VOTE SO NER NER NI NER NER!!'
As if anyone is interested in who he votes for.
If you check through his history, every post (apart from the first couple) are slanderous degrading pointless attacks or accusations with absolutely no substance!!!
He obviously cant let his poker do the talking for him.
Id love to see a constructive post on hand histories in the holdem strategy section.
A number of forum members post views that are against the norm, but they are respected for their views, because they back them up with logic and reasoning to justify their side of the argument.
Its making me laugh actually writing this because in a way hes won, because we are all paying attention to him! Although i dont know why he'd enjoy this attention?
Anyway thats the last i comment i will make on this individual, i use the forum as a way to keep me focused on the game by running through peoples hands histories and also to keep up to date with friends.
He got what he wanted, which was a response! He can now sit back and enjoy his celebrity and plot his next victims, all the while loooooolooolooooooooloooling himself to sleep at night.
Hi guys, i think this thread is getting a little out of hand, please can we cool it down and can i remind you that this forum is for open friendly discussion and a few of the posts on this thread are getting close to breaking our house rules.
Constructive criticism is fine as every body is welcome to have their own opinions on certain topics but it is when these turn into personal attacks that action has to be taken.
So please bear in mind not to be abusive or cause offence to individuals when writing your posts and continue to use the forum as it was intended.
Thank you for being understanding and continue to enjoy our community,

As far as anyone with an ounce of respect is concerned, this thread is over.
Hopefully, it will be on page 2 by lunchtime.
I'm closing this thread now as there has been enough debate on this subject and the thread has run it's course.

Adam
