HooDooKoo said:Post hoc ergo propter hoc.
You received your Full Tilt money because another company bought them and bailed them out --- not because people were "still talking" about Full Tilt. No one is ever going to buy Lock because the potential future profit has no chance of exceeding the existing liabilities due to the insignificant traffic at Lock.
Talking about Lock on this (or any other) message board has NO impact on Lock's solvency/liquidity. Continuing to post warnings about Lock for players that don't know about this situation makes sense. Talking about Lock in any other context is a waste of time and effort --- and you should be smart enough to see that.
Good luck to you, too.

Hoodookoo sometimes can forget to politely maneuver his was to the point and goes right to it by stepping on the toes that are in the way but as straightforward as it is it's 100% true
PokerStars bought Full Tilt, and it was not out of the kindness of their hearts it was a business decision. Full tilt has likable software, and was the #2 poker site in the market behind only Poker Stars.
It also was good PR for Stars saying "Hey we got the players back" however I doubt they would of done it for the PR alone they expected to make a profit that was worth the risk.
Even after Full Tilt was bought up it still had that tarnished reputation, people who aren't forum lovers and understand the Stars now owns it stay away from it and forum lovers make up a small percentage of poker players.
Stars has and still is giving Full Tilt a new look and is changing everything (I think maybe even the name?) in order to get the tarnish off of it.
Lock Poker is not a risk worth the reward situation. No one will buy them out, It's simply cheaper to create a new poker site from scratch then to buy Lock. It will also be more profitable to start from scratch.
