rockeycatt, KasinoKing, bb28 - our domain is
www.libertyslots.eu and
NOT the site you referred to. That is a different casino, different company and nothing to do with LibertySlots. As for Norton in regards to OUR casino, I believe this is just because the software is awaiting code signing from Verisign (sorry if my tech talk isn't perfect). I am told this is currently being tested for release.
vinylweatherman -
the website was based off an old template there is no denying that. Yes, it was a careless mistake; however, this does not 'establish a clear connection' only an error made on behalf of a designer.
As for your comments about players and databases:
It is quite clear in this thread that exactly what you stated is in fact happening. There are many players who NEVER played at the former group that have received invites, as well as many players of the former who have NEVER received invites.
It is not PROOF of a connection, but when viewed by outsiders not privvy to the background, this is the most logical conclusion to draw.
The "template" was actually the English Harbour website itself, NOT a generic template provided by Vegas Technology. Thus, it was the property of English Harbour, not the property of Vegas Technology and now the new software company. After the closure of EH, the website was an asset of that company, and would have been disposed of as part of the assets of EH. Thus, any new company in possession of any assets from the old EH group does indeed have some kind of connection, even if this was just buying the assets at a knock down price.
The other explanation, one that leads to no connection whatsoever, is that the designer simply stole the website from EH, which as a "dead" company would have non-one around to object. This designer was also so lazy that he simply "scraped" the entire site, and did a few basic edits. This lead to the careless leaving in of EH specific information, as well as edits so basic that the new site looked as though it was the EH site overlaid with a few alterations. It is hard to believe that a web designer would be so crap at his job, as this is what would be expected from an amateur.
"blame the subcontractor" is an overused excuse, and does not impress the membership here, after all Liberty Slots employed the designer, hence is held accountable for his sins. The marketing company was also selected by Liberty Slots, so if they have screwed up, it is again Liberty Slots that will be held accountable.
This new software company appears not to exist, and thus can not have undergone proper testing by an independent organisation. Any testing certificates granted to Vegas Technology would have no standing, as it no longer exists, and the new company would have been able to alter the code in any case, even if they had only done so to apply their own branding.
Only time will tell whether the impression that only ex EH players are receiving these invites is a just one. It could be that the marketing company have targeted players well, and thus ex EH players are getting the invites simply because they are in the target group.
Unfortunately, affiliates will not be easily convinced, having been lied to before by Grand Prive. It is because of this Grand Prive incident, and attempts by other operators to screw their affiliates, that "trust" is pretty much dead and buried, and anything that just "doesn't look right" is going to be seen as a sign that something really isn't right, whatever assurances are given by the operator.
If this is a genuine new software company intending to sell it's product to other operators, they will have a stand at ICEi in January. If not, it will appear that the software company is also the operator, and the only casinos using the software will be their own, hence no need for a stand at ICEi, marketing, nor indeed a website separate from that of the casino.
There is nothing wrong with this, after all 3Dice is similar - software company and casino run by the same company, so the software is ONLY seen at 3Dice.
All that is needed is the truth, and if the current information IS the truth, stick to it whatever happens. If not, say so now, rather than get found out later on.
