I missed these gems from earlier:

Sorry Mitchy but you _are_ being an "irresponsible" and "persnickety" whiner, just like you said yourself. Not because you have a beef with the casino over this bonus thing but because you're trying to shout down and brow-beat anyone who disagrees with your particular interpretation of these rules.

Hardly. I am simply vigorously making my case. Some people actually agree with me believe it or not. Shocking, I know. If I hurt your feelings that is because personalities are not at stake here---issues are. It seems you have combined the two inappropriately. As I learned while studying in America, "If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen."

And last but not least: the fact that CM and I won't cut you some slack on this is due in no small part to your "I'm right and you're not" attitude, at least that's true for me. AFAIC whatever merit your arguements may have had have been wholly overshadowed by your unnecessarily combative attitude.

You know, while it is shameful enough to think things like this, it's much much worse to actually say them. You are admitting that you are not considering the facts but instead are approaching this based on whether you care for me or not. Yes, quite the demeanor to act as an independent arbiter.

Thank you for continuing to prove my point about being unnecessarily combative and aggressive. I see that we can add sarcastic and condescending to that.

I'm sure this won't settle anything but what the heck, it never hurts to try:

It's pretty clear to me from the way this has gone from the beginning that you feel your are standing your ground and, as you say, "vigorously making my case". Others might see it differently, and do.

For instance it's not hard interpret this situation as you trying to push and bully your way into getting what you've wanted from the outset, and you're trying to use us and our services here to help you do that. I can pretty much promise you that that strategy is unlikely to succeed.

To put it another way there's a difference between being vigorous and being mean-spirited, contemptuous and terminally disagreeable. While the former may be admirable the latter most certainly is not and being so spoils pretty much everything, including your chances at getting what you want.

It must be nice to have the illusion that you are the rational one, above and beyond the fray. Look in the mirror. You have been sanctimonious and judgmental since you first entered the discussion. Now let's add hypocritical. It's insulting. Reread your first post. Giving me lessons on "player responsibility?" You are not a Kindergarten teacher and I am not a 5-year-old. They say ignorance is bliss.

A truly discerning person cares about the facts, not about whether or not someone has a fuzzy, cuddly online demeanor. I trust you are done attacking mine.

Still on target Mitchy. Keep blasting away, I'm sure you'll get exactly what you're after by doing so.

IMHO you can not point to any word(s), phrase or terminology that could in any way justify labeling the OP as, "mean-spirited, contemptuous and terminally disagreeable." But please go ahead and quote the quotes.

But more to the point, now that the OP has filed a PAB, the prospects of a successful outcome have been interminably and irrevocably compromised. We seem to be agreeable on this last point at least "......and being so spoils pretty much everything, including your chances at getting what you want."

Why would you bother pursuing the PAB under such circumstances?

If the OP is successful I for one will believe that justice, whilst inexcusably delayed, was eventually and belatedly delivered.

If the OP is unsuccessful, well........I think speculation will rightfully abound.

For the moment you are being played hook, line and sinker by an OP that has been around the traps more than once.

Maxd You Do Me A Favor?

But first, let me tell you just what I think of you!
That should really motivate you to champion my cause

If the OP is unsuccessful, well........I think speculation will rightfully abound.

Bosh! If a person is acutely unpleasant -- on and off the public record -- and they end up being unsuccessful in their goals then perhaps they have themselves to blame and no other. Those who offer a service have a right, and I would say an obligation, to refuse service to anyone who makes the process unreasonably difficult and unpleasant.

Note that I'm not saying such a refusal has been given, but warnings that it might be have, and rightly so I should think.

Why would you bother pursuing the PAB under such circumstances?

(1) Because, within reason, it is my job. (2) Because we try to give everyone a fair shake, and sometimes that means shrugging off a bit shite. And (3) because deep down I'm a real sweetie and I like to give the players, often the underdogs in their disagreements with the casinos, a good shot at being treated fair and reasonably. However, there are limits, and that's not an unreasonable position to take.

If Mitchy has already PAB'd maybe we should suspend the thread pending the outcome. If he doesnt want to PAB, there is no point arguing on the issues over and again. It will just make tempers flare. Just close the thread then.
