Shame on them indeed Pokeraddict. Which forum was this, if you don't mind me asking?

I removed the thread on request of AP upper management. They will be giving the affiliates an official statement via PAW.

AFAIK AP never gave them a statement beyond the one issued by Chipleader. In his blog he doesn't mention anybody in AP's upper managemnt though but does mention Chipleader saying the thread was "slanderous".
That's right, instead of allowing a free discussion for affiliates to give input on where to go from there (like not promoting AP/UB, getting together to push AP into a 3rd party review, pushing AP into a response etc.) Jeremy deletes the entire thread at the request of Absolute Poker. He then even went into his blog and calls out the rest of the community for doubting AP. Although he has promoted poker for many years he does not seem to have any concept of the game or how to read Poker Tracker stats. I guess the other thought is his relationship with AP/UB has gotten in the way with the fact multiple players are running on a 20 trillion to 1 shot streak with about the worst possible preflop stats one can have. If a normal players W$atSD is 50% (its slightly higher) then winning 179 coin tosses in a row is a good comparison. It's probably closer to winning 160 coin tosses in a row. It's still not possible.
