Has this idea ever been explored? I wonder if it would help player retention?
Sounds like a good idea!! It might help a little!
I don't think it would help retain players,cause in the end you still have to make points to play the PO games.
I just foresee alot of trouble with multi-accounts.
That's true. Still individual poker clients only allow 1 account as well. Well with the exception of the Merge individual sites.Quote:

My guess is that the tournaments wouldn't have much value. They'd have to have a smaller prizepool which would mean the payouts wouldn't be that great. And, they would still need to earn points.
doubt it, the new ones are degens looking for an out...hahaha
I don't think such an idea will be implemented.
every game is a freeroll all u have to do is get points!! and carbon does send out tickets to players at merge to potential new members!
multi accounters unite!!!! and gimmme my 5 poinnttttts plleease :)
This is a pretty good idea, but for the multi accounters it would be a easy scam for them. You should post this into suggestions. I think zab has a way to verify ppl on the offerwalls, and a Points fr in client for new members would help them earn some points as well. Good idea, just needs to be fine tuned by zab I think.Quote:

Yes I think nice attempt but wide right...good luck
why if anything new members can earn points much easier than vets as pretty much every offer works for them...also would that mean we stop them from playing the normal fr's why should some jumped up lil n00b get moe of a shot than the vets??? and lastly the more people that play in the normal fr's means the prizepools of the normal fr's will go up...if zab holds a new fr for new members only not only will people create multi accounts (like previously suggested) but it will be less likely that he ups the prizepools of the current...allround bad idea imo
I dont like this idea, you know, then it isnt much monet?ra left for us... Hehehe Mr selfish ;)
no new player free rolls they should have to earn and pay to play just like us vets!

Don't care for the idea of a new player FR either. If you wanted to do some form of promotion for new members you can give a free coupon or entry into the respective client's FR if you enroll thru BR Boosting program. If it was more difficult to earn points I'd be more for it but the fact of the matter is it takes a few minutes to make a couple hundred points and that at least forces new members to explore the site a little bit.
just got to help us new members learn how to earn the points easier. spending hours in the surveys is lame. the forums are starting to he;p tthough
I agree that if players are tired of earning the points to proceed it really doesn't matter what else you could offer them and you would have to watch out for people signing up just to play in the freeroll, there would need to be some requirements or else people would take advantage.Quote:
