    What is with this customer service stuff? I keep seeing that over and over. It's a forum.. that you don't pay to be on. There is no customer service, it's a privilege to be there and you abide by their rules or you don't visit said forum. You're in their house!!!!

    Why is that so difficult to understand?

    The Wiz lost a half million in real estate equity after the '08 crash, then got hosed for $80K with a shady Cyprian bank. He was in dire financial straits. Then the sale closed. Saved!

    Are you guys retarded Siamese twins joined at the hip? Keep guessing my identity. You can make it a game the next time you fly 58,000 miles or drive 18,000 miles. Now you want to meet? Any time any place? How about your place? When are visiting hours at the institution?

    If you can't wait, I'll be in Vegas Friday...planning to arrive sometime in the afternoon. Does that work for you? Available Friday night. Can you make it? Should I leave earlier? I'll be available all day Sunday. Where should we meet Mikes house? Or Circus Circus and ask for the retarded twins? I'll get there early to see if I can find any left over TITOs for you.

    Sunday no good? Vegas no good? Are you more comfortable in Barstow? I'll tell you when I'm planning to leave then you say that's the time you could have met. Then you tell the lies that you're so famous for and say something came up.

    Now go back and file your report. Good boy. Maybe you'll get a treat. Oh and say hi to Bozzie. I forget...is he stuck to your left side or your right.

    Going to bed now...can't stay up all night like you guys. Try not to soil each other.

    Quote from Mr.V above ... "The Wiz lost a half million in real estate equity after the '08 crash, then got hosed for $80K with a shady Cyprian bank. He was in dire financial straits. Then the sale closed. Saved!


    How is it you know so much about his personal finances? Are you his accountant doing his tax returns? Are these comments you’re making as if their facts just something you read on a degenerate gambling forum he just happens to own?

    Would you expect any person that might be a degenerate gambler to come forward and say “I’m broke because I pissed all my money away on advanced gambling plays. Something must be wrong with the math. My wife, kids, and own security have been placed at risk. I don’t expect enough donations to get me on top again, but at least something, because I know with my AP talents (which obviously let me down in the past) I should be able to parlay your donations into meaningful AP profits. Besides, this negative EV I ran into as to pop and pay off any day now.”

    Everyone took a beaten during those rough times. Many lost more than you assume he lost just on their own personal assets. With what was going on in Greece for several years already with the banks, who in their right mind would have 80K tied up there at that time? Are you guys really this gullible? Regardless, for an AP it should be nothing more than a temporary bump in the road. For the amount of time he’s been AP’ing it’s disappointing to find out he didn’t have any mattresses stuffed with all that AP cash for an emergency like what took place.

    Then you claim he was saved by the Serbians. Please present the actual confirmed facts of that deal before you claim how lucky he actually is (or isn’t.) It’s obvious something did happen, he no longer owns the sites and he’s gambling again. Yet, hearing about million dollar deals that allegedly took place on a gambling forum over a gambling forum has about as much merit as me claiming I have more money than Bill Gates.

    The more you guys talk and let everyone read what you say; the more your credibility gets downgraded.

    Shouldn't you be spending more time at the WOV scanning every post and thread for posters that don’t drink the cool-aid? Then twist what they say into personal insults against you. Aren’t you the same fool that posted these comments below about me?


    “You won't be here long, and honestly the mods need to 86 you instantly/
    Yes I'll admit to flagging this post because it's absolutely insulting!!!!!!!
    You are acting like an total jerk”


    “Well said, but I flagged him and I would be really upset if he isn't just suspended for insults asap”




    Then you have the nerve to come here where no one at all cares about your personal opinions, and just curse like the true ass hole child you must be. With all the money you have from gambling, shouldn’t you be somewhere else? Why does this petty stuff mean so much to you personally? By the way, how much did you fork up for your pal’s tin cup? Be honest now…..

    Sunday works great for me. Would love to have a beer or soda somewhere mid strip and put a face to the words. Let me know what works for you and we can meet, say hi and still disagree. By the way, I have never met WoN so it's hard to be joined at hip.

    This is the prototype person that give manboy the keys to the car.

    you can say its a privilege to walk into a Walmart, to walk into a Dairy Queen.

    But the reality is, successful businesses have the mindset that its a "privilege" to service customers. And that leads to customer retention. As you can see based on the mindset that its a privilege to enter that domain .....you have a 25 percent loss of member visits. Nice going.

    You are wrong....there is customer service.....very poor, antagonistic customer service. The customer service is vindictive and punitive

    People go to that site, and devote time , effort and expertise for free. In exchange they get a forum to post on. Its a symbiotic relationship. Either party cannot exist without the other. With no posters, the message board would close down. And without a board there can be no posters. Its a yes/yes deal for both parties.

    Wov is a "for profit" business. It uses the visit numbers of members and non members as a means to attain advertisers. By just entering the site you are helping the "for profit" business to maximize their advertising dollars. By devoting your time effort and expertise you are helping to attract people to visit the site, and also help the advertising process. I stress "helping"....its not the entire draw.but it is a draw.

    And in exchange you get the joy of the exchange of ideas.

    Again.....A YES/YES deal.

    so drop the fucking shit "its a privilege".

    Walk into a Walmart......complain to the manager......and then be told that you are banned from the store for 3 days. And then call the manager sarcastically "a real genius".....and see if you get banned for 7 days from the store. And then ask where is sally the cashier (who was fired)...and be labeled a troublemaker and banned from the store again. And then when online call a customer "an idiot" for doing something stupid....and see if you are banned 14 days from the store.

    Successful businesses are not into continual punishment of its customers. Successful businesses do not have a manboy in charge who proclaims that when he is in a bad mood he punishes customers. This is abnormal. This is sick. No business should treat valued customers like that.

    The manboy did proclaim that he was in a bad mood and was looking to suspend in one post. That says alot. That shows the contempt he has for customers. It shows his disrespect for them. Customers can be used as salve for his psychological wounds when they are punished.

    So yes, wov is a business. Is not "mikes house" "mikes living room" "mikes place"......its a profit making business owned by a corporation.

    Its as much as a privilege to enter and it should be for them to serve customers.

    However you are one of many who have no value to their self worth...do not think you add value to the site...your time , effort is worthless...and its all about being grateful to the corporation. Well look at how KJ was treated....Look at the loss of member visits....you get what you accept.

    Freddy, you do what you want but I would never meet someone as disturbed as Boz.They guy cant even stay on topic. He is like a bull in a china shop....very agitated.
    I am in reno over 100 days a year......I am not meeting disturbed people....I am there to have fun.

    Would I meet people that I dissagree with? Sure. if Mr V was there I would have no problem having a meal. Why? Because he seems sane. We agree on some things and we vehemently dissagree on others. Thats normal .

    If Boz came here and said " freddy...I agree with some of the things you say, but on the following comments..i disagree"...that sounds like something a sane person might say. Heck he hasnt even stated what he disagrees with....let alone agree with.

    There are some points brought up on this thread that can be debated, and some things that are real straightforward. Boz had the opportunity to select any of them and make his case. Instead he came here and talks about bank accounts, and flying to meet just a bunch of pissing contest material. He is obviously a guy that cant string a few cogent thoughts together to make his point,......so why would I meet with him face to face. Will his communication skills become better in person? I doubt it.

    I was just about to post where and when to Boz. Thanks for telling me something I already knew...thanks for the wake up call. Now Bozzie can wear the crown of "most macho" as I'm sure he'll say I backed down.

    How about this Bozzie? If it's so important to meet me give me directions to your pub and if I'm back east I'll consider stopping by. No promises.

    If someone presents themselves as off their rocker.....you have no obligation to give into their demands.

    I have seen no evidence that the dude can cogently have a discussion.

    give him a chance to have an honest debate,a give and take,.....just like V does here and anywhere else he goes.

    let him prove his sanity , his ability to calmly communicate......rather than the pissing and false declarations and assumptions he is hurling.

    If someone cannot cogently communicate in a calm manner....you have to be nuts to meet the dude

    so far from what I have read here....the words cogent and calm do not apply

    but thats just me,

    Yea, I guess I win. I'll take it. Because it is so dangerous to meet someone in a public casino to have a drink and put a face to a name. I'll live, just like I did with my suspensions at WOV. Remember you asked me about them a couple times right before you went off the deep end and were banned.

    Either way, have a successful Vegas weekend. That's what it's all about anyways, regardless of all this nonsense.

    As to Larry and his constant rants on Customer service, I wish I could understand the fascination. WOV is like every other business out there. As long as an owner does not break any discrimination laws, they are free to do what they want. Of course successful ones find the balance between customer service and profits. Those that don't do things the right way go out of business. And the customer moves on, and someone else fills the void, if one was left. Happens every day out there.

    Not happy with how your treated at a business, write a review and warn others. If enough feel the same way the business will fail. And the owner loses. That's it, the owner loses money, not you. I just don't get why you have made it so personal with Mike. It tells me you are hurt that his business told you to get lost. Whether or not the business fails, he did what any owner has the right to do, simple as that. You don't like him, I get it, I'm sure he doesn't like you.

    As for the sale part of it, he made money. Most people respect that and it's obvious the new owners don't care about WOV. I personally don't like online casinos and those who run them. I also don't trust where the money goes in these 3rd world countries. But I'm not their target customer and I'm sure they don't care what I think.

    If they are making money, that all that matters to them. And if they don't, their loss. What you and I think about their customer service doesn't matter to them. Simple as that.

    Your right to tell them how they should run their business, but you don't help your cause giving them names you think are cute to insult them. You come off as having an agenda as a bitter person. I get it, I call people I don't like names and really dislike people I have never met like Mike BJ. This is based on his postings, nothing more. He may be a nice guy but comes off as a pompous ass who knows more than everyone else. As I said over there, it may be a money making act, who knows.

    Fighting with people you never met in person on the internet is reality, and maybe even fun but we all end up looking like assholes to someone. Nobody wins, unless someone finds a way to make money off it. Which is always the goal in the business world. If you have helped this site make money, someone appreciates it. And if you have contributed to WOV losing money, you did your job. Congratulations!

    This is one of those gasbags who just can't tell the truth. A guy so craving for attention that he posts anything that pops into his head. Everyone on that board knows it but him. They are already dropping hints.

    If someone wins $1000 he wins $2000. If someone drives a Camry he posts a picture of an Infinity and says it's his. If someone meets a famous person he knows someone more famous. He completely lied about attending the spring fling too. Said he was there but he was "working".

    He says he's a lawyer but I see a high school education at best. Maybe a diploma maybe not. You can only learn words like "fucktard" in special class.

    Here's what he said after Mickey's post that got their attention: "I believe I immediately sent Mike a text of the screenshot of it. I also contacted my local FBI office". Huh?

    FBI, how may I direct your call? This is Wizard of nothing. A bad man said something that wasn't nice about my friend Mike. On the internet. Oh, I see. What about the CIA? Interpol? Anybody? They shouldn't say these things about my Mikey. Okay, I'll try the hall monitor.

    Good boy, Wizardofnothing. Want a treat? Roll over. Good boy!

    Boz, I appreciate the change to an argument that can actually be addressed, thank you.

    As far as the above comment. You will never see anyone here tell wov that they are breaking laws. Heck in any business, I can throw someone out of my store if I dont like the color of their tie. Tie color is NOT govt protected. No one ever said that WOV was breaking discrimination laws. Usually people start their response with their strongest point. If this is a "strong point".....it doesnt say alot.

    As far as the other points.....its just the nature of the beast. If I go to walmart and dont like how they treat my neighbors, ..well I am standing right there. I dont go home and hit the computer. But internet businesses are on the computer, and mistreated customers are right there on the computer...so by nature its so easy to see a neighbor mistreated and take 3 minutes to respond. Its simple, and convenient. But it happens in the brick and morter stores as well. Mistreated customers tell hundreds of people sometimes.

    If you go to Epcot center....its not "disneys place" where you are privileged to enter. They consider you a guest and they treat you like its a privilege to serve you. THAT is what businesses do. And businesses that dont.... get called out for it.
    Who is the arbiter on how long they get called out??? Neither you nor I are the gauge as to what is too long.

    If I was punished and I had my say and nothing else occured on that site. Then you have a point. How long can my personal treatment go on and on in my mind as far as complaints. However the treatment of neighbors have continued. And I like to point that out...and also support/defend my neighbors. You cant defend or support your neighbors on that site. Heck someone was suspended for asking where kewlj was....he was baited and punished.

    The length of this thread has to do with constantly new mistreatments that occur almost every week....THATS what keeps it going.

    And as far as pet names.Well People do based on what they are. Peoples actions can be explained by what they are. Their names explain why they behave in a socially backward way, why they are socially retarded, why they NEED to behave in such a manner, why they do behave in such a manner. Not just names pulled out of the air. But names that help explain why they do what they do.

    Its observational,. its opinion, and your opinion may differ. However what may make you dislike the names is that there is a ring of truth to them, ..they are based on reality, Its not calling someone "fucking asshole" or "piece of shit". Although vulgar, those names are just general insults with no real meaning. The names that you find objectionable do have real meaning...and thats the rub.

    I am not one to just throw out insulting names like "fucking cunt".....but you or mickey might ....its up to you. You said that you have been know to call vulgar names. So then comes the question....who is the arbiter of what is too vulgar or personal.

    This post has thousands of views. It has been viewed month after month. If it was total garbage people would just dismiss it. But as people see others mistreated on wov......and they are too scared to say a word in fear of punishment and being labeled a troll...they come here and see people say what they really want to say. We seem to speak for others....a silent group...majority or minority..I dont know.

    They are not selling advertising over at WOO and WoV. They are playing the affiliate ballgame. You can go to any gambling site and read their affiliate policy. Take Bovada for instance. If you read their affiliate policy you will see that they are offering you 25% to 40% of what they rake poker players off depending on how much action you are sending them through your site. Of course, this is minus any sign-up bonuses the players receive.

    Anyone can play the affiliate ballgame. Joshua Chan is very good at it with Latest Casino Bonuses. He's a hell of a lot better at it than Shack ever was. If you sign up through WOO or WoV you will be married to Chan forever. He is going to receive a percentage of what you get raked off for in perpetuity. The gambling site allows the affiliate to track the players through their database.
