I understand they reset every week....however BBP isnt the first forum to try this method and wont be the last but I have yet to see one that not only made it work but made the forum grow ...it works in reverse....I am all for being loyal and I think I post as much as I can ....when I have something to say. But having said that there are way too many forums that requier nothing and way too many freerolls out there for people to jump through hoops.....I am sure there are better ways to attract a loyal following. Also I would assume this forum is like most others they are here to try and make a profit through its members playing buyins and downlaoding sites and depositing through the banners in the forum. But I think when people realize they can play a 100 dollar freeroll at the acme forum up the street with 3 posts a week or even no posts they are going to play up the street and it may not happen right away but eventually the poker sites start asking the afilliates why they have not been bringing in fresh blood and new money
and I think this is going to be the reason..
I am not upset but rather a realist who hates to see this forum have issues later. We all know dozens of forums that are no longer here or were here for a few tournys and then gone and I know several of the administrators and they sang the same death knell....no members signing through them ...no deposits and that lead to no freerolls from the sites. I can name several other forums that are literally huge with thousands and thousands of members and I can play any freeroll anytime I want and some I have never ever posted ....but they are running a volume business. So I guess before I ramble too much further and my 11 month old on my lap decides to get down
maybe we are looking at a small forum that has no intention of ever making a buck for the owners and if that is the case then I apologize and will endeavor to make my 50 points on the weeks I know I can play.
