    Welcome to Sky Poker hope you enjoy the experience please feel free to ask any questions on the Forum.

    There is no question, he's not very subtly suggestion the site is bent.

    This is why he's getting the responses he's getting, and rightly so.

    He's not new, 2012 only to the Forum so he should be wise to the beats, why has he taken this long to speak out there's no need to ridicule him he may not have seen all the other posts on this subject. We have lost to many players already please don't add another one by being bitchy.
    To be honest player retention is more likely to be impacted by someone trying to say the site 'is bent' on a public forum.

    Players taking the time to point out that the notion of the site 'being bent' is laughable should positively influence anyone who is reading the thread.

    Sky do well to entertain posts like this on their forum. I would be tempted to send posts like that into cyber oblivion. I understand why Sky tolerate them though.

    Censorship is not the way to win hearts.

    The Randomness of the site has been challenged before and discussed at length with good posts which made clear the R.N.G. was not perfect but as random as random can be ( level playing field for everyone.) A sticky on the Forum regard this where players with these view's can be directed would save Geronimo and his Marauding Indians trying to scalp anyone & everyone who dare challenge their downswing as Sky being bent and after their money. The Customer is always right even when wrong just need love not hate or told to f off. fwiw.

    Nothing wrong with bashing a bent site poster, its mis-using the forum, so they're fair game. Imho.

    "The Randomness of the site has been challenged before and discussed at length with good posts which made clear the R.N.G. was not perfect but as random as random can be ( level playing field for everyone.)

    Sky allow these comments so there is not even a remote question of it being censorship.

    If they did not allow such comments then I would still argue it would not be censorship. IMO censorship is trying to control 'what is said'. I don't think in that instance Sky would be making any attempt to control 'what people said' but rather 'where they said it' (i.e. on their forums which they pay for and own). Sky in essence are paying for and providing the platform the individual is using to question Sky's integrity. I would think asking them to make their unsubstantiated claims elsewhere would be perfectly reasonable.

    As I said in my original post though... I completely understand why Sky do tolerate this.

    As for there being "hate or told to f off". I know I certainly haven't said anything like that and I haven't noticed anyone else saying it.

    You pointed out before that this discussion has been had over and over again. It therefore becomes a tad tedious and therefore the replies of some posters may become less patient in nature.

    Mumsie,
    Sorry
    My Saturday Morning Picture days with the Lone Ranger.
    Would you prefer "Crazy Horse" !
    The very reason I suggested sticky to direct players to site explaining variance, save the Tribe Ambushing them on the Forum not very nice if your new player just starting out.

    Markycash,
    You don't feel the need for sticky you prefer tie them to pole dance round then light fire. ?

    You can still ignore me with no reply. You may be tired of answering, reason simple sticky.

    Where would be without conspiracy theorists? Let me see-main options seem to be:-

    1. Sky risks its entire gaming business in order to take your £5 and give it to someone else; or

    2. You are deluded

    Tough call...

    I think this post covers it .

    Then make it the Sticky to shut doubters up. Please note any hand you are dealt (on Sky Poker) may not be a winner.
