I agree with AceKicker. I’ve had players ask me for a rakeback, and told me that if I don’t offer it to them they will join elsewhere. I refused stating that it was against the terms and conditions, but make me look like the bad guy (greedy too), since so many people opening advertise it.
Look at the classifieds from 2+2
classified
There are even sites that compare the rakebacks offered at other sites.
I don’t think we should have to compete with that. It’s not like we have a choice of if we should offer a rakeback, since it is against the affiliate agreement. I would like to see those affiliates that openly advertise rakebacks, have their payments stopped.
It does bug me a little that even if they stopped offering rakebacks they would still keep making tons of $$ since they have so many players signed up under them because they offered a rakeback.
Enough is enough, they should be stopped and I think this is a good first step, but more should be done.
