Online Poker Forum: Posting Guidelines

[Tammy]

We wanted to put together this thread to give you some guidelines of what should be posted in this section. Any questions? Post them below!

What should be posted in the Online Poker forum?

The Online Poker forum is a place to discuss anything related directly to playing poker online.

Some examples could be:

• Best computer set up for playing online
• Differences between live and online
• Strategies as they pertain to online poker (i.e. sitting out on the bubble, running out the time clock, late registration)
• Online poker legislation
• Formats of poker offered online
• Twitch Poker Streams (of online poker games)
• Any general topics about online poker or playing poker online

What should not be posted here:

• Anything to do with specific online poker rooms. Please use Poker Rooms for that.
• Anything to do with live poker. We have a Live Poker forum those topics.
• Poker news topics - big events or news happening in the poker world. Those topics should go in Poker News.
• Rail threads, challenges, or bad beats. Those should go in our Get a Game Going/Rail Requests, Bad Beats and Vents, or Poker Goals, Challenges and Wins
• Hand Analysis - Please use our Cash Game or Tournament Hand Analysis sections
• General tournament strategy - use Tournament Poker instead
• General cash game strategy - this should go in Cash Games
• General poker topics not necessarily related to online poker - use General Poker
• Learning poker topics - take those to Learning Poker
• See this post for a complete listing of our forums and where your topics should go.

An etiquette is not to write ALL CAPS as well.

I definitely prefer to play on a computer online - I think most would work well with a good internet connection.

No worries - I can check it for you and move if necessary.

If we are talking about private poker clubs, then the answer would be no since this is some form of advertising which is against our site rules.

Hope that helps.

Experience is the most important thing. You have to play a lot.

So Tammy you keep pulling down my that concern fair play. Can you tell me why

I merged a thread that was the same topic as another you had already created. I did look and see that a couple of your threads were deleted because you already had other threads up on that same topic. They could have potentially been merged with those threads, but you also aren't very clear with a lot of your thread starters as to what your point is.

In your thread about PokerStars MI, I did a little quick research for you and offered you some info.

If you want to avoid threads being deleted, here is some advice:

• Don't create multiple threads on the same topic - keep it to one to avoid confusion or deletion.
• If you do create a new thread, remember you are starting a new topic - so if you want decent and relevant replies, you have to do a good job of laying out what you are talking about. Don't assume people have read any of your other threads or posts.
• Make sure you aren't being rude or insulting to community members. This isn't Reddit or the Facebook comment section. If you want to get your point across, you'll have better luck if you aren't insulting people right out the gate.
