Full report on the G2E 2010 from Las Vegas

[the Shamus]

Hi Folks:

I was fortunate enough to attend the G2E show in Las Vegas. I took hundreds of pictures of new machines on the floor from IGT, Bally, Aruze, Spielo, Aristocrat, Konami and WMS Games ... along with a few others.

If you are interested in reading about the new slot machines which are likely to hit casinos floors in North America, some time this year, I have a full writeup with pictures on Playerslife.com.

Let me know what you think of the reports.

As interesting as this material may be, do you not think you are pushing the envelope by advertising it here without first checking with the owner/webmaster?

That could be construed as directing players away from this site to your own, or spamming imo.

Hi Jetset:

I definitely do not want to break the rules on the board. It is just a normal site with an article I personally wrote regarding the G2E gaming show. There is nothing for sale, and no gambling there. I expect the conversation, if any, will be on this website.

I am not a webmaster, just a moderator on the site.

If this type of posting is not permitted, I understand it will be removed.

Nevertheless, you are inviting players to leave this site to go to the one on which you moderate. To do so without first having the courtesy to consult Casinomeister is imo wrong.

Hi jetset:

I didn't even provide a link to the site, or the article in question. Isn't it like saying -- if you want information on Payback Percentages in Las Vegas, I would recommend "Strictly Slots" magazine?

I would have no qualms about referencing this site as a good place for online gaming.

PS - The G2E coverage is in the TRIP REPORTS section. Nobody needs an ID to read it. If you check it out -- let me know what you think!

I'm done with perpetuating this rather crude attempt at achieving publicity and attracting traffic. IMO this remains a wilful abuse of Casinomeister hospitality.

Hi Jetset:

Please have my thread deleted. I thought this discussion would add value here in your "North American Land Based Casinos" section.

I don't think I have the ability to delete these myself.

Sorry for wasting your time on this.

I've seen the same user spam this on other sites as well. He nonchalantly tries to push traffic over to a site where he is paid to get users signed up etc.

The Shamus if you really wanted to generate talk why not just post the trip report here. This thread should be deleted if you are unwilling to do that.

Hi bowlingbob:

Tough crowd. Player's Life sent me to the G2E to report on the show. I was there as a writer for the website. The only other site I have linked from is Slot Machines Forum, where I am also the moderator.

Is the G2E not a news story? I was acting in the capacity of writer. I am here to discuss the show, answer questions ... talk slots ... etc.

I think that is different than SPAMMING? Apparently, nobody is interested in discussing it ... and that's okay ... however, there is no need for the hostility.

Their point is simple; if you read the TOS here and whatnot, u would see that once you become an active and contributing member here, then you can use a signature with a link in it. (I think at like 50 or 100 posts)

Until then, ur suggestions, esp. with this obvious of a tone, and this forward of a solicitation as in the OP, and with this group of loyals, will mos def. be construed as beguiling, even well thought out, spamming.
