This was going to be a post on the following thread https://www.casinomeister.com/forums/threads/57435/ in response to vinalweatherman:
"Being limited to the 35% coupon is effectively a "bonus ban". Odd that they do this to a player that doesn't even use bonuses in the first place.
Maybe it's down to the ASKING for comps, rather than just letting them give them out when they want to. It may be their way of stopping front line CS getting talked into offering yet another comp.
I also got bonus banned at CW, but I was ahead, pretty well ahead too, and I took plenty of bonuses (as one is supposed to with RTG). I didn't bother with the 35% coupon, I just stopped playing."
IT ONLY BECOMES BONUS ABUSE WHEN THAT BONUS FAILS TO PART YOU FROM YOUR MONEY.
OK, Perhaps there are some "abusers" out there but in my eyes, these casinos shouldn't be offering the bonuses at all if they are not going to offer them to everyone. If they don't like somebody's action--BAR them! This is how it's done in a REAL casino.
Oh yes, those crummy bonuses they are so concerned someone may actually cash out on are an extremely inferior alternative to B & M comps--such as a Tower Suite at Wynn, complimentary for 3 nights! How about VIP tickets (not comped but held in the most prime seats at the MGM Garden Arena) until 1/2 hour before the show for BARBRA STREISAND!
How about a free and absolutely delicious buffet at ElDorado Shreveport, LA every single day because I have a Gold Player Card (which is not that hard to get). But wait,. I also get free play & yes CASH in these places in addition. These comps are extended based upon how much I WAGER, not how much I win or lose. And yet, the online casinos see their crummy bonuses which by the way---tilt the odds in their favor MOST of the time factoring in WR. If I could only count the times I threw back a nice win trying to meet WR for a bonus.
Yes, it is easy to see why I'm on the verge of swearing OLG off for good.
