Mathematical Proof that English Harbour is cheating

[Linus]

I have seen so many examples of incompetence that I am not really concerned about evil and competent casinos.

LOL. So it's only the evil incompetent ones you're worried about?


Seriously, though, that's a question that's been bothering me... surely they can't be as incompetent as they seem? That so many people are handling so much money, without being able to do simple math, spell, or write a coherent sentence, is amazing to me.

I highly doubt the CM we all know and admire would advocate any such thing. In the course of really major screw-ups of all time, this one has surely earned its place in that history.

And life goes on..........

I am thinking that human error is a hurdle best met with compassion (for who knows when they will need that compassion shown after their own major screw-up?) I am not advocating a "forgive and forget" mentality in any way. Forgive yes....but be smart, remember history and get out there and have some freakin' fun!

I hear what you are saying but I think you are being overly generous.

Remember, if not for the lawnet, this would not have been a victimless episode.

Real players were losing real money hand over fist into the casino.
This is the real reason its important ... its not an academic debate or an anecdote. (Im not saying you think that there suzecat).

The very same people who did this are taking players deposits as we speak.

However, such a generous response would have to assume a complete lack of intent. It is here that their first response is crucial in getting a true picture of their intent is vital.

Much like if the police have caught someone committing a crime they will still question him. And his answers will be extremely important. If he is found with evidence showing he did the deed and then his "alibi" is shown to be false and then he refuses to answer any more questions, then do you think the police should show such people compassion and drop it.

Most people would expect consequences.

And thats what I am asking really.

In my opnion the software is a non-issue. It wasnt even mentioned for, what, a week? two weeks? (I cant remember) and then suddenly it appears as the reason.

It could only ever prove something which "could" have happened ... if you like (after their initial statement) its their second "alibi" and as the first was one has been shown to be, well, a lie to be perfectly frank then surely to view this "defence" with a huge amount of suspicion can only be common sense or the most prudent approach when dealing with such large amounts of money.

Whoa big fella

Somewhere in these many pages I did post that thelawnet did us a great service by bringing his experience to the forum.

What I was tactfully attempting to say previously was that forgiving is OK (we are all going to screw up sometime) but forgetting is not IMHO what a smart person would do. Until the rules of life change and free choice is stripped from us all, we are still going to have to remember the past or be doomed to repeat it.

If you are looking for a balls-out, no-holds-barred response from me, you will not find it in this forum. Look in other forums where that is the modus operandi and you will find me spewing with the best of 'em!

After the first line, it wasnt all posted with you specifically in mind ... it was more of an open forum post to all readers. Im sorry if it upset you but I am at a loss why ... I dont think there was anything personal or insulting in there whatsoever ... other than a differing opinion.

If I have insulted you can you help me and be a bit more specific as to exactly how and then I will be able to apologise properly.

It was my post you were referring to or have I misunderstood something?

Well, there is that Anne Bolin thing Henry.......but let's let that go for now!

Seriously, no harm. no foul. BTW, whenever a post is quoted, I have taken that to mean that the reply that follows is directed specifically at the quoted material. Maybe I need my meds changed?

[kengam]

[kengam]

so thats it? A controversial thread with 37,000 views and it is being swept under the rug and all is forgiven? Bryan?

[soflat]

I hope it is not swept under the rug.

[bossplayer]

Why do I agree with the people with the negative reputation points here?
