There really are no advantages when you move up,it just tells you who the players are and how long they have been here.I think you should take advantage of the perks you get after you sign up.There are lots of them.If you like to play poker online and like the freerolls this is the premiere site to be on.Now you can play freerolls without having to play against 2k players,The best thing for you to do is go to the forum and read as much as you can.Good luck.....
