don't listen to him martini.I was nursing a short stack in the Main Event for 5 hours, thus I could not fully explain my reasoning for Jewdonk's ban. I was able to ban him and post that short explanation while some rec at the table literally tanked for 5 minutes.
Anyway, now that I busted, I'm not going to create drama like I usually do after busting the Main (that's reserved for the ones where I bust barely out of the money after 3 long, grueling days), but I will give you guys an explanation for the ban.
I'm sure that the Poker Champion of Marina Bay thinks that I banned him because I'm terrified about Failsite 5.0.
In reality, I'm not the slightest bit worried that his awful site will be anything but an embarrassing failure. Every single one of his sites follows the exact same pattern:
- Jewdonk throws it up, proclaiming it's going to crush the "competition" at the time (NWP/DD/PFA).
- Despite his frequent criticisms of other sites for their layout and functionality, his site will be both ugly and riddled with bugs, despite being mostly an out-of-the-box vBulletin installation.
- A bunch of people will register and post during the first week for the lulz, and Pockles will erroneously take that to mean that his lofty goal of eighth tier forum dominance has been achieved.
- Marty will appoint career scammer "Sparky Griswold" to mod again, but will hide him under a fake name so no one knows it's him. Sparky will then work on setting up his usual long con. Marty won't say anything because Sparky convinced him that he's "really changed this time".
- After everyone gets bored of the novelty of Jewdonk running a forum again, people will start trolling him, and the bans will come down fast and furious.
- Most others who registered will simply stop posting (with nothing really let to say, and not really having the desire to troll), and the place will become a ghost town.
- Jewdonk will piss off the tech guy who helped him with it (he always needs a tech guy because he's incapable of setting up a vBulletin installation himself), likely with unreasonable demands of the guy's time and effort, citing the "great opportunity" he's giving them, and that person will quit.
- Without a tech guy anymore, and a forum where nobody except for him and a few trolls post, he'll take it down again, but with some excuse how he's "too busy" or "doesn't need the negativity".
So why don't I just leave his account in good standing and watch/laugh as the inevitable plays out?

as a mod i will single handily create 20 dupes to keep the site afloat while your passed out drunk. i will even argue with myself and ban certain accounts to make it look good as well
