Think Star	Posted - 2006.05.26 22:54:00 - [2] Originally by: BlackHole Bob Edited by: BlackHole Bob on 26/05/2006 22:42:41 Originally by: Sarmaul okay... so, CCP censors us from seeing words such as ** and ** due to the Teen rating on the game, yet the feel it's perfectly reasonable to endorse a promotion that encourages minors to sign-up to an online gambling site? Jesus christ :/ Who is this "Al G.Rhytym"? Who is "Think Star"? Why has this been given a sticky without any official word from CCP? And just so you know, the EVE forums are completely public so everyone viewing can see the password. we are scratching our head wondering these same questions... we went to sign up and saw just what you stated...we were to say the least a little surpirsed...and stopped actually:(:( CCP is not involved in this in any way, but have graciously allowed us to post information about this tournament here on the forums. Furthermore, all under age players will not be able or allowed to create an account. This is stated in our rules and regulations section and in our policy statement. We do not allow underage gambling in any meaning of the word. If there is a fraud ( underage winner ) the Prizes are payed out to the runner up. Furthermore we did not add any cash prizes, and there is no entry fee, the tournaments are completely free to enter which makes this tournament series more appealing, this truly is intended as an event that should give our players change to win cool stuff (shipped to their door step) in a game of cards. We appreciate your concerns. 4Kings representative [email protected]
Think Star	Posted - 2006.05.26 23:44:00 - [3] Originally by: Sarmaul Edited by: Sarmaul on 26/05/2006 23:17:21 I was wondering if you could prahaps tell me a little about the history and reputation of 4kings.com, as Google has a grand total of 22 hits for "4kings.com", most of which seem to refer to the online gaming clan. Further-more, it doesn't seem able to find a single website that links to 4kings.com. For an online gambling site to have no online presence, you'll understand my suspicions. Finally, I did a domain lookup on 4kings.com and it seems that the website is hosted in Iceland. CCP is also an Icelandic company. Any chance you could tell us if there is a relationship between 4kings.com and CCP, and how this promotion came to be? 4Kings are a part of the B2B poker network. (24hpoker AB sweden) 24hpoker network 4Kings are hosted at B2B poker. 4Kings representative [email protected]

Think Star	Posted - 2006.05.27 14:24:00 - [5] Originally by: HippoKing Edited by: HippoKing on 27/05/2006 11:05:57 Just for my own curiousity: why are we on a forum which we are repeatedly told is teen rated enough that no-one is allowed to use the word ***** in any context because some people might interpret is as a reference to drugs (i am allowed to say drugs, right?) but you are promoting gambling with a sticky? edit: also, how come they get to inline images, and we have to link? All under age players will not be able or allowed to create an account. This is stated in our rules and regulations section and in our policy statement. We do not allow underage gambling in any sense of the word. If there is fraud (i.e. an underage winner) the Prizes will be paid out to the runner up.

More specifically Satellite 3 which is 12 hours behind.... The tournaments are at the same time as advertised. CET spells Central European time. Our poker client can be adjusted to your current time zone (some computers do that automatically) so we included the tournament schedule in EVE time also.

Think Star	Posted - 2006.05.28 16:49:00 - [12] Here are few tips for you to read and keep in mind while playing this poker tournament: There are many ways to go about developing your playing style in tournament poker. Some players play passive - aggressive: This means that they don't play many hands but the hands they decide to play they will play at full throttle. We also have the maniac: He plays almost every hand and he plays them all full throttle, you never know what this player has in store but this player is someone you want to play against any day. Just wait for your best hand AK or AA and then go against him. There is no one correct way to play poker although some methods are preferred and suggested. Texas Hold'em is a game that takes minutes to learn but lifetime to master. Playing tight - aggressive is suggested by all good tournament players, we also suggest it. á The normal raise is 3 times the big blind and follow up is 70% of the pot. Never get carried away, and if you think you are beat just fold and move on to the next hand. The EVE tournaments have 15 minute blinds which means you have plenty of time to get a decent hand. Beginners are advised while getting the feel for the game to play mostly pairs and AK AQ AJ and then test the waters when you feel confident enough to challenge the table. THE FIRST TOURNAMENT START IN 15 MINUTES (next one in 4 hours and 15 minutes and the last in in 8 hours 15 minutes) á Good luck and have fun! 4Kings representative 4Kings.com [email protected] [IMG]http://www.4king

Think Star	Posted - 2006.05.28 21:31:00 - [16] Originally by: Bozse Worked great so far, busted ut at like 30th in the first round tho. One complaint, u have a flaw in the rules that allows allready qualified plyers to enter the later rounds thus making it so they can grab 2 of the slot for the final, doubt this was intended and if it is i would like to know how u motivate this. If you qualify 2 times to the finals there will be one less in the finals to compete with and you get two timecards instead of one =) 4Kings representative 4Kings.com [email protected]

Edit: Besides this great initiative, hope u do more of this in the future. We will defenetly take this under consideration :) its a valid comment. thank you. 4Kings representative 4Kings.com [email protected]
Think Star	Posted - 2006.05.28 22:40:00 - [18] Originally by: TornSoul Especially because of the EVE related prizes - and it beeing limited to EVE players as well (yes others could snatch up the code - Not sure how to 'control' that if this really takes of) None - Eve players can't win prizes..

I'll be watching the finals. We would all definitely LOVE to see more of this in the future \o/ By the way, a question. Are the timecards only 100 day ones?

Think Star	Posted - 2006.05.29 16:04:00 - [24] Originally by: Felix Cole Edited by: Felix Cole on 29/05/2006 14:02:17 Pride I didnt reply instantly to it sorry as Ive been cooking and eating dinner. I acctually thought you made some very valid points. However while I can accept some of what your saying about parents responabilities etc, the problem as I see it is that it isnt so cut and dried in my opinion. I do agree parents need to be more proactive in there approach to the internet, but I also think the companies supplying services such as computer game companies (since games are so attractive to younger audiences) are also responsible for the content of there games and also there message boards. You can see CCP taking a responsability for its boards by the simple fact it has blocked certain swear words, and has moderators to make sure the rules are followed who modify or delete certain content here. That in itself shows they are willing to take a stand against behaviour that is not suitable to protect there customer base. So why would they allow gambling advertising? To me it seems very irresponsable for a Computer gaming company who supplies services to children and adults to help advertise for online gambling companies and competitions they host. As for the debate that EVE is a game where you take a gamble just leaving space, thats all good and well, but you are not terribly likely to get yourself in real life financial trouble or start yourself down a road of a very harmful addiction doing so. I do understand it was just a fun competition for most of our community and Im sorry if I have offended people, but I honestly think CCP needs to take even a small amount of responability in protecting there customers. I cant really bring up smoking or other vices since it doesnt exactly relate to the topic at hand. I also want to add that I am not someone who is Anti Gambling. I just dont think a game company who has many customers who are not adults should be advertising Online Gambling. We here at 4kings appreciate your feedback and concerns. In future tournaments, we need to be more explicit that itÆs for adults over 18; and over 21 in relevant jurisdictions. I will state here once more that CCP is not involved in this in any way, but have graciously allowed us to post information about this tournament here on the forums. Furthermore, all under age players will not be able or allowed to create an account. This is stated in our rules and regulations section and in our policy statement. We do not allow underage gambling in any sense of the word. If there is fraud (i.e. an underage winner) the Prizes will be paid out to the runner up. Originally by: Wrangler Ok, I think everyone has to calm down here a bit. There are some facts you should recognize before critizing this: 1. Entry is free! 2. You play with chips, not money, no money is involved. That means you play for free! 3. If you win, you win stuff, good stuff, free stuff! You don't win money! 4. Since I can't say this enough, you don't have to pay anything to play at all! 5. You don't have to pay any shipping, handling, customs fees or any form of taxes related to the prize, it is all covered by 4kings. The only difference between this and playing poker in school for matches is that you actually get something if you win. However, you don't lose anything. This is a TEEN rated forum, but we did announce the Fan Fest on it, and that is also something which is restricted to 18 y olds and above. As for morals of playing poker, you are free to start your own thread on it in the Out Of Pod Experience forum, but it is off topic for this thread. EDIT: Some errors have been fixed on their site, which means we deleted the post concerning those errors. Feel free to post if you experience any problems in the future though. 4Kings representative 4Kings.com [email protected]

Think Star	Posted - 2006.05.29 16:15:00 - [26] Originally by: Galk I am in agreement with you in fact, but yousting it here is as pointless as discussing the reasoning behind timecodes. Im in agreement, ccp allowing a gambling company to come into a closed community and promote their products isn't great.. but it's easy to understand.. ccp are in the business of making money But arguing the downsides gets you nowhere in a thread such as this.. cool things were on offer, people had fun out of it.... You were ofc right with your first post, you should have just left it at that..... What would ofc be nice to know.... did money change hands between 4kings and ccp.... Or is this some future practice.. where we see more of this sort of thing.. between ccp and 3rd party companys being allowed to exploit the playerbase with these types of offers or promotions...? Weird realy, ccp.. community manager care to comment? CCP is not involved in this in any way, but have graciously allowed us to post information about this tournament here on the forums. There was no money exchange between us and CCP. Read the 1st thread or the thread in whole and you will get a full understanding of this promotion. 4Kings representative 4Kings.com [email protected]
