VP Mafia Rallies to Protect income

Evidence of more Skip Hughes incompetence. I have not been a member of
lodestone for over two years! Have you noticed how all the shills rally
around to protect one another? They all have gambling habits which they
attempt to support by selling "information" and how to products. If they
know how to make so much money gambling, why don't they simple do that for a
living? RS, I am posting this here, so you can respond. Has anyone else
noticed that bashing Rob Singer or Rastis or anyone who dares disagree with
the mercenaries is not only acceptable but a duty. Yet those that
criticize, the vp mafia, who have hastened the demise of full pay video
poker, are "psycho" trolls. LOL

Rastis P. Rulz - truly Laughing Out Loud at the video poker version of the
gang that couldn't shoot straight!

John, Christy and all of you;

I owe you an apology for this guy's presence here. He was a former
subscriber but is not now and is not welcome. He will be gone
shortly. He has never had anything to offer of any value. In that
regard he is very similar to his former enemy and current ally, Rob
Singer*. He offers no insight whatsover into video poker nor any
valuable information about it. He only bashes people. He doesn't
even try to deny that his goal is flaming, (it's the logo for his
forum). And yes, he boosted the forum's membership number by
uploading pictures of naked ladie. I wouldn't really call it porn,
but that's in the eyes....

The point is the membership numbers have nothing to do with the
forum itself or with any kind of interest in what goes on in it.
Until that peculiar "membership drive" the group had about 2-300
lurkers and Rastis posting 90% of the posts. Now with Singer, Rastis
posts about about 70% of the posts (it gets confusing for newcomers
because he often refers to himself in the third person), Singer
about 25% and the other 5% are from people who are either dumb
enough to try to inject some reason into the "discussion" and find
themselves the next target, or rarely, the occasional coward who
decides to ally himself with the bullies. That is the dynamic there -
elementary schoolyard bullies.

* Speaking of Rastis and Singer, here is an excerpt from and
interesting (and funny) note Bob Dancer posted on the Winpoker
group.. Some of you may have missed it. I'm sure Bob won't mind
(I'll CC him):

An interesting, true, story: Over a year ago, Rob Singer
came by the offices of Compton Dancer Consulting asking for a job as
a casino consultant. Jeffrey was flabbergasted at the request. I
received the report later from Jeffrey, but it went something like
this.

Jeffrey Compton: How can we possibly hire you? You regularly
trash Bob Dancer and other writers I respect in print.

Rob Singer: Don't make the mistake of assuming I, Rob Singer,
actually believe the stuff I write. It's just a position I take
to cause controversy and sell my book.

Jeffrey Compton: Well, why don't you starting writing what you
really believe?
Rob Singer: That position is already well covered. To sell
my products I have to take a contrarian approach.

I found this conversation quite telling. It explains why Singer
says a lot of things he does. Anyone following his advice does so at
his own risk. Anyone trying to argue with him will likely find it as
productive as trying to nail jello to a tree.
