Many people and some webmasters have a vested interest in ecogra.
Casinos have a vested interest in eCOGRA.
I fail to see how webmasters can have a vested interest here, eCOGRA has made it plenty clear that they will protect players but not webmasters.
I like eCOGRA because any organization at all that does solve player problems is sorely needed.
Like it or not, all eCOGRA approved casinos treat players well and resolve problems well.
We need self policing in this industry. There is no one doing it for us.
So they don’t look out for webmasters (and I think they should be guaranteeing the integrity of their membership in ALL regards, but they don’t and won’t) but at least they do well by players.
If the player ain’t happy, ain’t nobody happy.
PriceWaterhouseCoopers has a wide variety of clients ( http://www.pwcglobal.com/extweb/aboutus.nsf/docid/9AB7C0BA505992DF85257097007C8A0F ) and is well known and respected all over.
JF messed up and did an unethical campaign. It was stupid, and it needed to be stopped. Someone needs to be held responsible.
But it is not comparable to 888’s mess, which persists in clogging up search results and which triggered attacks on numerous websites who are to this day under attack.
JF made a really stupid mistake that has not further consequences but to hurt JF itself.
888 has done something that has hurt the entire industry.
Let’s stay gounded here, this is not about eCOGRA. This thread is about JF, and sweet Joeyl has once again succeeded in turning a thread from whatever it was about into one about eCOGRA. And with minimal effort I must say. You are a smart man, Joeyl!
