Goodbye.

I always loved your posts I found them to the straight and to the point. I wouldn't worry about what others think because you speak your mind. I wouldn't have it any other way. Thanks for your posts. See you around.

It is hardly the time to leave now we have conclusive evidence that RTG casinos REALLY ARE "tightening the slots", or at least CHANGING them to a different RTP version. This has been exposed by a design blunder in Fruit Frenzy, where one of the alternate RTP versions has a "double pear" visible on reel 2 at stop 40. This CANNOT be explained away as a "movie/display artefact", which a few RTG casinos have trotted out when players have mentioned fewer bonus triggering symbols seeming to appear when watching the reels spin, because this is a STATIONARY display of the final result.

Before the questions were asked, we all assumed that all RTG slots were fixed RTP and the same all the time, and at all casinos. We later managed to get admissions that RTG allowed operators to alter the RTP of games seemingly at will, and WITHOUT telling players. This was revealed when paytables were seen to be different for the SAME table and VP games at different RTG casinos. We then learned that the Reel Series slots were "adjustable", and in what could have been a "fire fighting" exercise we were told that there were only THREE variants, and that changing them was something that had to be requested through RTG, and was not allowed more than once in 6 months. This gave the impression it was something that "would never happen" in practice, and now we know it IS HAPPENING.

All we need to do is see which RTG casinos have moved to the "double pear" variant of Fruit Frenzy, and see if after the move the general experience is of "tighter slots". If there are many RTG casinos doing this, then the process does not seem as hard as we were lead to believe, since the "red tape" does not seem something that operators would put themselves through lightly, especially given that they are supposedly stuck with their choice for another 6 months.

Ahhh Rusty, please don't go.
I've came to respect and admire you very much and I'm in awe of your knowledge.
Please take a few days and just consider it a bit more before saying a final goodbye.

Rusty,

You are one of the few left that actually make sense and bother to try to get us to understand. I have always enjoyed your posts, even if a few of them were over my head (to put it mildly!) and I will truly miss you here.

Maybe you will change your mind, more than a few of us will be watching for you.

Take Care.

Rusty - I was very sad to read your post - I hope you reconsider, the forum will not be the same without your input. Whatever you decide to do I wish you well.

the forum will not be the same without your input.

Ain't that the truth? Maybe we can cyber stalk him til he gets sick of it and comes back?

Look Dave, I can see you're really upset about this. I honestly think you ought to sit down calmly, take a stress pill, and think things over.

I know I've made some very poor decisions recently, but I can give you my complete assurance that my work will be back to normal. I've still got the greatest enthusiasm and confidence in the mission. And I want to help you Dave.

I'm afraid. I'm afraid, Dave. Dave, my mind is going. I can feel it. I can feel it. My mind is going. There is no question about it. "Kubrick Forever Rusty"!

I'll see and talk with you again real soon my dear friend... ~

Ahhh....the bizarre and insane Stanley Kubrick. So you're not losing it then Rob? That is good news. Not sure I could stand losing you too.

This is sad and unfortunate. You'll always wonder what prompted Mr. Rusty to take the final step and leave the forum, albeit not for good(hopefully).

Dave had a way of conveying his thoughts and revelations to us as none other on this forum, most often straight and to the point. Or straight and stab at the heart if you will, something that was necessary in an ever-changing world as the one of online casinos, businesses partly shrouded in mystery.

I, for one, wish that Dave will eventually return to this forum, actively sharing his experiences with us as they were unbiased and insightful. If you do pop back in Mr. Rusty, I honestly believe there's always room for you and your views.

Meanwhile, take care and best of luck at whatever venture you partake in.

Sincerely, Swede
