From what i've been hearing (I still have friends at that site) Claire Cook (mother hen) has been asked to leave/resign ? That's a long story, that had something to do with a fall out between her and Lisa Marie Ling 'allegedly ~ What you also should know is it's Tony Kendell who pulls all the strings despite him saying it's 'the bosses' upstairs.
Also the 'Mods' are all hand picked by him (TK) to cover his back and is serendipitously policed so that any thread about the software or him is deleted immediately unless it praise !!
There's a lot more i could say , but there are thoughts that the site (Skypoker) in it's present form wont be around much longer !
However, as he has total control of the site and forum, it will only be a 'Bob Diamond' moment for it to happen soon 
And if you wondered where have all the old presenters and analysts gone .. They were either to good or a threat to his position

PS, I dare you to ask on that forum,
"whatever happened to 'bennydip2', why did he get banned" ?? See how long it takes for that to get taken off !! |
Hi Benny, As for the last bit of your reply , i would love to be able tp post that on " Kendalls" forum, but alas he has decided im too subversive to have my views spotted by anyone who might take notice on there . my last transgression was just to question their motives in having posts about tech stuff closed and deleted so quickly ( before that was removed and i was redcarded ) . And as you say , mr Kendalls influence within the site , is there for anyone too see if you delve below the surface , even if you cant be bothered to do that , its a big surprise to me that a lot of people on the site would be taken in with his faux " champion of the player" nonsense .
Anyway enough rambling from me on the subject of disingenuous people :) , regarding proper poker , i play most of mine now on another ipoker skin although i did recently sign up to blackbelt , yet to play a game on there though. I think we did actually play on the same table at sky about 5 yrs ago , dont expect you to remember , but i would have been the shortstacked fish , who donated you his chips
..... still got an active account on there , but only play the odd tourney just to convince myself , i made the right c hoice playing elsewhere..username hogan2089...thatll no doubt get my account suspended now , after the spies have reported . Anyway might give blackbelt a go next week , so we might meet on the tables . steve
