This is just my opinion and I accept others will see things differently.

Due to a steady increase in shill like posts, unchecked disinformation and general apathy on the subject of fair gaming I will no longer be posting on these boards as I do not want to add legitimacy to these people by responding to them directly.
I have explained my position many times on these boards and backed up my words with reason,logic and fact so I will not be replying to any questions in this thread.
This is my last post regardless.

I would just like to publicly thank Bryan, Simmo and Max for their excellent moderation and wish Bryan all the very best for the future - he certainly deserves any reward he gets for his efforts.

To those I have come to know as friends I wish to thank you for putting up with me over the last few Years.
To my enemies, good luck and no hard feelings.

I still intend to keep my account open for a while so that I can stay in touch with people via PM but I will no longer be posting.

Thank you all.

David AKA Rusty
 
I know you said you wouldnt be posting, i just want you to know that you are one of the most talented folks to have ever graced this forum imho, i consider you to be gifted in the casino industry with a wealth of knowledge to back it up.

I will miss you and will always know you as my friend.............laurie(sad)
 
We're sure gonna miss you round here... :(
Take care of yourself, and don't forget you have an open invite to come and meet me, Bryan & the gang (assuming they'll be there) and some of the peps behind the casinos at the ICE event in London in January.
Just give me the nod & I'll sort everything out for you.

All the best matey! :cheers:
KK.
 
I can understand where you're coming from Rusty. Sometimes it gets to hard to fight the good fight. I know we had our battles, but at least you had the knowledge and intelligence to make them worthwhile. So long. :)
 
Nooooooooo!!! You can't David, you just can't. Please take some time and reconsider. You are one of the few voices of sanity and reason left around here. It will not be the same if you're not around. This makes me very sad. :(
 
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. :D "Kubrick Forever Rusty"!

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

I came to help people. You did too. Just breath when it gets tight. People forget to breath. There is no place to go. It would be very noble to stand and turn the negative into posative., but with posative thoughts/actions. It can be done. Don't resist these people. Float above and with them. These are poor people who do not have the growth to be harmonious. Be kind to them and their color will stand out. If you go then they will not be seen. Nor will they ever see themselves. Pity them, in a kind way. It is the only way to ever be happy.

I am sorry to intrude. I couldn't help it.
 
certainly hope you change your mind! always looked forward to reading your posts and i think there will be a huge hole that will be very difficult to fill if you don't have a presence here.

I'm sure everyone respects your decision... but you are threatening the balance of the universe;)
 
David AKA Rusty you will be truly missed I admire you for your knowledge an respect your opinions an really really hate to see you go but can in some ways understand why

Peace Love :)

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 i dont even know you - but for gods sake stay -obviously u made an impact on people here - i have no clue what happen nor i care but when help is needed i can see that you have been there so STAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:)
 
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? :D

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. :D "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. :laugh:
 
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
 
Hiya: I also do not know you, and most of the time had no/little idea what you were talking about, being in the US, and not being a slots player, and such.

But I do know this. The whole reason this forum exist, is for Players who know something, to be able to share that something with others. It does not matter if they agree, or like it or not. What does matter is those who DO agree, or like it, and make any adjustments that may be required.

This only happens, when you have different People post, on the same topic, and the same voice. This board needs your voice, and for that matter all our voices. A lot of the times it makes no difference, Buuuuuuuuuut.........every once in a while it does. That alone is a reason to stick around.......Is it Not?
 
I honestly hope you change your mind . I enjoy your posts and enthusiasm that always comes through.
Some of your posts have made me change my mind about a subject as I saw it from a new light .
I wish you well and the best ...and I also hope you change your mind :)

You knowledge, insight, and opinions will be missed. Everyone did not always agree with your findings, or theories, but that is what made them interesting. I know you always made me think twice. Also, the sheep game was fun.

If this is farewell, then good luck, and thank you for all that you have done. I know your posts will be referenced hundreds of times for discussion sake. Perhaps you will one day return. You will be welcomed back with open arms. Take Care:)
 
i don't know you that well but you where very friendly to me
