Just out of curiousity Why the big deal to Close an Account on line?
I think the easiest way to do this is to go to Control Panel and click "add/remove" link and uninstall... Am I missing something here?
Rusty , maybe you can elaborate
Thanks
The bid deal is that if a player is truly addicted and/or trying to quit for other reasons, then uninstalling a casino from their computer isn't enough.
If they don't have enough willpower to simply stay away and not re-download the casinos they have uninstalled, then of course that won't do any good.
The only option for a player in that situation is to have the casino close their accounts indefinitely.
What I don't get is why more places don't automate this system. I know for a fact that PokerStars, Full Tilt Poker, and Cake Poker have a system in place
within the software that allows you to exclude yourself from play. Periods can range from 24 hours up to 180 days. Once you exclude yourself, there is no way to play, even at free money tables, until this period is over.
I'm only assuming that they don't offer automatic permanent exclusion for the sole fact that some players would do this out of haste, and they'd have a rough time getting off of the exclusion list.
