I would assume they will stand there because re-doing the scores will only screw up the numbers. Guru would have go back each game and re-do the thing and that is time consuming and would be easier to let it be until the series end. Its more complex going back to game already played.

***** I also forgot to add. Banned members do not get paid for any winnings at the end of season if they were on a winning team. *****

I don't think the scores from those games need to be done over, that would be way too much work. But if players are banned from playing future games, I don't see the harm in removing them from the standings. Not that it really makes much difference. It was nice to see something about the players being banned, instead of being in the dark. :)

only the members you mean and not the whole team I quess.

Also: are they banned from life or just this season?

• Yes, just the member not the whole team.
• And banned for life

As always, thanks for the quick response RK. I didn't think to redo the scores, etc., just remove them from wherever they were in the individual standings. But I was just curious. Thanks!

Royal is allways quick with an answer. I hate that people do bad things to get there self banned here. Its all free to play in these tournaments, why screw up a good thing. I know probably there was some good poker players that got banned. Im glad to be here playing in these tournaments and having good team mates to try and win some of the free money being offered. I think its just stupid to try and cheat and get banned. Your not going to get anywhere on the site if you do.

Great.

Why cheat or here u no all ur activity is being tracked lol and is 1 or 2 games of 150$ worth cheating for and miss 15 more of those games and send what ever team u were down with down the drain?? smh some ppl r just ignorant glad that the ban is for life!

Tough to go back and give the points to the people next in line after someone has been banned.
Can you imagine going back as far as Lance Armstrong's banning to fix prizes and leaderboards?

Zing!

What RK said holds true.

I think you guys should keep in mind that it's far better if we focus on making the site better and better, rather than going back two steps with micro management of past issues.

Guru and I have a MASSIVE list of things we want done in the foreseeable future and it won't be possible unless we can focus on that. I completely understand the intentions of the request, but I hope you agree when I say that this issue is relatively small and not as important as, say, launching a new video section.

You guys ever thought about having a arcade section on the side, with some tournament style games we could use the points on? Would love to do some butt kicking in yeti:)

Guru and I have been debating adding a web based poker to the site which would incorporate points one way or another. That way, our members could play free poker against each other and I suppose rebuys would be made possible with the use of points.

I'm sure it's a feature you guys would absolutely love, but given the complexity of such feature, I cannot estimate how long it would take to do it.

fair enough , its good to show you havent mercy otherwise were will it end?
Quessing you blocked IP adress in this case.

Well i`m glad the admin. did ban the players from the forum but i dont think it needed to be a hush hush on who they were i was waiting for the vidio of that game whitch was never posted but i had a idea who the were but would rather have seen there names instead of guessing who oh well at least there gone

The names of those banned were posted by Ioi.
