They don't give a shit about the regs marlais, its time to just give it up. That being said if there are any devs reading through this if you can throw together a nice btc poker site with a chatbox that won't be handed over to an SJW control freak you will instantly get pretty much 100% of swc's traffic.

Can you please remove higherhighs from the trollbox? If you want to ban the N-word and F-word, great. I fully support those decisions. But this guy is instigating all of the misery in the trollbox right now and then playing the victim card when it inevitably escalates.
 
Is this person even sanctioned by you? I feel like this must be a troll since it's so over the top, but people keep getting muted and the rules keep getting changed to ban all possible instances of higherhighs' feelings getting hurt, so that's confusing.

Please just post the chat rules prominently and keep it objective. For example, "you can't tell people to kill themselves" and "don't say the N-word or post links referring to the N-word" instead of including wildly subjective rules like "no player abuse" (whatever that means). Then, quietly mute people who break the rules without having higherhighs confront them in the trollbox. If they want to discuss the reasons for the ban, stick to email.
 
For whatever reason, higherhighs cannot moderate chat without making it personal and involving himself in every conversation that has nothing to do with him. His constant barrage of "you're pushing it," "this is your final warning," "you've been pushing the edge all week long," "that's not the only reason we banned beerman," "chat is a privilege," "stop abusing me" bullshit just makes it worse. Why would you even discuss the reasons for player bans with EVERYONE IN THE TROLLBOX?   
 
It only escalates arguments when higherhighs tells someone they're banned, but the ban won't take effect until 12 hours from now when someone wakes up. Then, the player rages out for the next 12 hours and higherhighs escalates the conflict even further by increasing the length of the ban because he's feeling "abused." He has directly instigated the abuse he complains of in almost all cases I've seen.
 
Letting higherhighs report people based on his personal dislike of certain players is a disastrous, ill-conceived policy that only serves to make him feel like he has control over some aspect of his life and inflates his ego. He thinks he is entitled to respect because his chat color is green, and when that fails, he resorts to intimidation, fear tactics, and misdirected punishment. It doesn't work that way. You have to earn people's respect. 
 
You're driving away players and making SWC look terrible. The 500 krill requirement to chat is punishing new players. Do yourself a favor and take away higherhighs' chat. It won't stop him from reporting people by email, but will prevent the current trainwreck in the trollbox from continuing, and might possibly slow the hemorrhage of players from the site.

I might start doing some more vids for this site and picking up my action.

Taking requests.  Can do HU triple draw but prefer 5 card omaha variants.

If you think I'm too tight, it's cause u have to up your starting hand requirements with 5 cards.

Also, I don't claim to be a pro or an expert.  My take on online poker is more fun than your's and likely more profitable.

Also, if seals is taking requests obviously 6card PLO is overdue..

adios amigos

Still one of the most enjoyable sessions I get into weekly, if not working. I can't manage to run well in both but there's always next time.

Wanted to drop in here to spread awareness about the #3 Bitcointalk Poker Series (0.05 BTC & BIG BTC Ticket sponsored by SwC Poker) This kicks off this Sunday. It's a good time and all you need to do is create an account on the forum and you are eligible to participate.

SWC have been great hosts and float out some great guarantees for the finales. There is a Series Championship, A small final for participants who don't qualify at the end, and we have added in a lottery aspect to give everyone the chance at earning a decent prize at the end to help balance out skill levels. Feel free to pop in and ask questions.

First of all if you are claiming something like that you should at least provide some sort of proof with it as well. Secondly SwC has been around for a loooooong time and they have always been known as a place that has not so many people, it is not like a brand new thing that they got less people nowadays, they probably have around the same number of people they always had, the trouble is not that they have less, it is that they always had so little.

That is not really a bad thing for the gambler though, sure it is bad for SwC because the more gamblers means more rake they would profit however for the gambler you can check games and tables and sit at the most crowded table and that is enough, even if there is 5 people in all of SwC at one time, you can get together and play together, so it shouldn't really bother people as long as you do not insist on a game and blinds.

Cliffnotes: There are agent sites where agents make money signing people up. The guy with the most krill on SWC has successfully recruited everyone with money to go there instead. They do everything SWC does much better.

I think SWC can explain the rest.

Can you explain? This is the first I'm hearing about this.


Most of SwC's traffic is focused predominately into just a few games, 5 Card Omaha H/L not being one of them.

If you want more traffic at your game, type "/action" into the chat box at your table! This is let people in the trollbox know that your table has open seats. (don't spam your requests though)

"If YoU bUiLd It, ThEy WiLl CoMe" 

Casino sites are great for gaming but before that we have to be careful There are many sites that are scammed so you need to analyze it well. It usually depends on the player how he monitors the sites.

Two players stole all the midstakes players and brought them to other sites. These sites are much better, so people play there. They won't come back.

I warned of this but SWC didn't think they should do anything against it in their chat.
