Goldenballscasino is paying people $10 to
post "good things" about them on numerous forums. If they really believe that this type of
"spam" will enhance the reputation of their casino, their marketing director is a moron,
and should be fired. A pretty "sleazy" way
to get "free" advertising.

Apparently, some people who post can't read (no postings that are cloaked spam). This is obviously that canned meat. (Jeezus, get a life!!) I checked out the casino and as soon as I got to the site I had to run down to the cellar to grab a beer. I needed something to calm my nerves after that mind-wretching muzak began to play (if you go to the site, you'll know what I mean). Frightening! Absurd!!

I noticed that they got the thumbs up from the e-gaming commission. Whoo-boy! A real quality casino!!

Anybody care to critique? I don't have the time to waste.

Any comments?Is he in the right?


Here goes...

Hi,

I don´t try to make any kind of Spam. I don´t put the Ads regarding this promotion here. A member put it because it received it by email.

When I have a promotion, that I think is good for members here, I put directly it here...

I don´t think that it is SPAM ! If it is so, then let me know.

Usually I send the promos by a Weekly News direct to my player´s emails database...with the option to be removed from the list in a easy way.

I am working with a very honest casino. All promos announced by me are real and winners are real too.

The promo of this weekend, regarding 10.00 in Cash, is having some troubles because our Servers in CAnada had a lot of problem by the Storm that caused some danger last day. My operator told me that all the $10.00 will be put in the player´s account within 2-3 hours.

I always try to make the things easy and maintain happy to my players and members of this forum. I come here every day , 4-5 times daily and I always put "Email me notification of all replies to this topic", in order to know if there are any kind of problems.

I work for the casino more than 14 hours daily...getting the best position as possible.

Next week we will get the winner. I wish that the winner will be a member of this board to demonstrate that we are real with real offers and promotions.

Let me know if you have any kind of problems writing to promotions@goldenballscasino.com

Thanks for your time and have a Nice and lucky Day!

The response from "Victor" the GB casino rep,
doesn't address the real issue here.
(storms, server problems, how many hours he works
is NOT what this is about)

The "issue" is whether or not it is "acceptable"
to offer money to people to "praise" this casino
on public forums. Would you do this for free if they asked you nicely? Rather doubtful. But for
$10, people will "sell there soul". Are these
"great casino" posts made because players really
love this place, or because of a "free $10"?
In 99% of the posts, I think we all know the answer!

The marketing rep that mass e-mailed these "offers" took a shot that for a
"$10 freebie", this casino would get a huge
amount of positive publicity. In my opinion,
"paid" glowing reviews of a casino are worthless.
This "promo" reeks of sleaziness on the casino's part. I personally e-mailed them and requested to be removed from their e-mail list. I am NOT a customer of this casino, and never will be, after
they tried this "gimmick" approach.
Just my 2 cents worth.... :lame:

Not only goldenballs but now video poker classic is on the act. It is nice to know customer service listens after all I did say they would have to pay me to play there again

but this WASN'T what I meant. STAY AWAY

They obviously did not think this through. A promo like this could easily backfire, and I believe it has. To pay people to say nice things is a load of crap. It's like buying votes. And as a side note, when a casino claims to be an "honest casino" it's a big turn-off for me.

Getting players to spam message boards is not the way to go. Most boards have topic areas that have been specifically created for promos or casino announcements (like in this forum).
To post spam in other topic areas, or cloaked spam in this case, is just plain thoughtless.
