Hi all,
once a year or so I enter my Focal stats for a good laugh; and in hopes that the quantity of players i have/had with them (as they are now seemingly disappeared) might actually have come back to lose some of the winnings that EVERY single one of them had.
To which I found even stranger that a player wins at a casino; and then never returns to try and win again.
I ask you; how many of you have won someplace, and then NEVER returned again to see if it could happen once more?
But that is the case with Focal, and I have/did have 5 years of stats to prove it.
But I just noticed that their all-encompassing stats now only go back 1 year.
That wouldn’t be because they don’t want people like me to show everyone how incredibly poor their performance has been (In 5 years time to redeem themselves no less); and that further more; that nearly every player was not only a winner, but in fact QUIT a winner.
Focal, you’re a sad case and I don’t care who disagrees with me. And if you think hiding your crappy performance by making old stats no longer available will help shut me up; you’ve got a lot to learn about bb1.
LOL! I haven’t checked those stats in ages…..prolly because it’s been the same as the above! :hehe:
Never had this problem. Always felt they are honest and retention is good. I can probably name other programs where I see the same as you are complaining about and you will say what I just said.
It’s a funny business this.
I’m just worried about Focal Click’s Caribbean Sun Poker rakeback issue…as some have pointed out, rakeback affiliates have been known to contact players in tables and tell them to discontinue their accounts and to start new ones with them. That really sucks for non rakeback affiliates to have their players disappear!
BB1, everytime you make a hate post against this program, a program you have not promoted in over 3 years but carried on a vendetta for, you lose some of my respect.
There are so many legitimate complaints, you must really hate them to keep on with this for over three years running.
The same thing you wrote about them is true about most every program I promote with the exception of a handful that do retain players for years.
Are they all crooked? Maybe, there is no way to tell. Then write about that. But your 3 year long crusade against Focal is unfounded and getting to be very annoying to me. Let it go already, grow with the times.
I agree with Kevin though – even though their poker seems to rock now, it is heavily supporting rake back and I hear of uncontrolled spamming in the rooms.
Dom, I call’em as I see ’em.
And frankly, I’m more concerned about saving others from a similar fate than I am about whether or not you respect me.
I apologize for nothing.
further more; any other program that does me that way can expect the same and I would sincerely hope that other members follow suit.
That’s what we’re here for; is to keep each other informed as to what to look out for, whether it be good or bad.
ps.
and its not like I just said; well its been 3 months, time to trash Focal.
I saw a change and I brought it to others attention.
I think the problem is more “Crypto” that Focal.
I have real difficulty making money from any Crypto program and having played at Cryptos regularly in the past i think its more to do with the software. IE: Its boring! It feels so “20th century” when MG seems faster, more glitzy and generally more fun. Posh London Gentlemans Club vs. Vegas Strip Razzle Dazzle! Grey Pinstriped Suit vs. Shades and Sneakers. Toyota Landcruiser vs. Aston Martin DB9. Snap vs Poker!
Once i discovered MG, i rarely went back to Crypto unless i has only a small wad and wanted a longer session with it. I could make $200 last an hour on Video Poker at Crypto whereas its 10-20 mins at MG. And i was often up a few $ after the hour – never a lot, but by that time i was bored so i’d cash out. Always ended up around even month on month whereas with MG the swings are way bigger.
Just my $0.02
