I just want to emphasize again, bc it seems some people have misunderstood me in the original post, I AM DEFINITELY NOT AGAINST FREEROLLS AS A MARKETING TOOL FOR POKER. I occasionally play freerolls, and encourage everyone on CC to support and participate in the ones CC holds.

What I am against is a culture that has developed that has told new players it isn't necessary to deposit or even smart and they can easily spin freeroll money up into millions or at least a workable 1st world income in short order.

Also, those who are saying-and again I am sort of shocked to even see this- that new depositors aren't necessary for the ecosystem are just flat out wrong.

Rake definitely is too damn high at micro tables and PLO and even many limit varietals, but that isn't mutually exclusive with the need for new depositors.

WE NEED NEW DEPOSITORS CONSTANTLY IN ORDER FOR THE POKER ECONOMY TO WORK, PERIOD.

There isn't anything wrong with people depositing a few hundred dollars into poker as they learn and try to improve; in fact, I think the most efficient mode of learning would be to deposit after a short amount of time playing freerolls and the like and start playing the smallest stakes cash and/or tournament games.
