So..
I am going to make the May PokerStars earlier tournament 100% free and no country restrictions.
Why? Bringing more traffic here.
Now the question.... When I release the password, what should I these members do? Where should I direct them? That's the question. I don't want them spamming chat, I just want them doing 'something' helpful here.
The idea is that maybe 1,2,5, 10% of them stick around and become good members.
Thoughts?
No feedback? !!!!!
I cant think about what they would have to do... remember we was talking about facebook, maybe they would have to be a fan of PO on facebook and a forum member? Maybe even going as far as having to be invited to a facebook event for password, only if they are a fan on the fb page?
Not sure if you can do this, but other forums have it set up that you need to have made at least 10 forum posts before you can see the password. Another idea is that you need to have at least 100 points to see the password, you don't need to pay 100 points, just have a balance of 100.
I heard facebook was going to end on may 15 is that true or what?
Alot of forum spam headed this way then, even more than there already is. But could work out to be positive.Quote:

The problem I see with making sure someone has X amount of points before they can see the password is that some people, such as myself, rarely have points unless they are going after a specific tournament. I usually get just enough points to do the tourny, maybe an LLB, and that's it.

So how do I get that message across is the question
1.make a promotion page
2.give alot of information about other freerolls going on with a link to this site
3.have a big button saying "SHOW PASSWORD"
4.use a script that locks the content (password) until they like and share your facebook page
5.they have the password,know about pokerowned,and liked+shared the fanpage so you have more traffic
+1 if this could work out.Quote:

And you have to be active over month before you can play. Then you signup and the mods review the player and if so many of their posts are spam, they won't qualify. This might result in spam but once they know spam won't meet the requirment, they won't do it. I think you can get a lot of newbies from that to permanently join.Quote:
