Dear Gambling Guru,


If you were not so stupid and a person of lower intellect I would just laugh at you and dismiss you. Saying that I have come to the conclusion that you really are just another fucking shit for brains fuck wit.

Are you actually proud of what you wrote about that guy in the Casino Coins thread? Cos that's what it sounds like.

If that had been me you had been talking about, I'd be instructing my lawyer to sue for defamation of character right about now.

I know you're a very forthright call-it-as-you-see it type and that's fair enough, but you went too far in that other thread and frankly a sh*tty email seems far from unfair.

I got no problem with what I wrote whatsoever, like I said, it was "tongue in cheek" and if the truth be known... which it will be before long, I'm sure it's not too damn far from the truth of the matter.

Why some of you guys want to stick up for un-professional companies like this that shit on us every day is just beyond me, but everyone's entitled to their own opinion of course.

I take it that you did not connect the dots up there...eh?

ok guys. I'm all for viewpoints, but this is a professional forum.. I don't want the same crap I see on other forums, which is people attacking other people. This goes for every AGD member.

Feel free to put viewpoints... no problem there. Argue viewpoints.. again, no issues. But calling names and attacking people is not professional.

I agree - cut it out guys or go to a sand box and throw sand at each other.

If any more attacks or name calling occur here, this will be the first ever thread on AGD I close.

Note that I am not singling anyone out here, so don't even start thinking along those lines.

I've seen multiple threads about Casino Coins and QT right now and am not sure what thread and post you're referring to. Link please?

Nevermind... I found it.

I don't understand why you're slamming Nick directly? I think your post was unfair. We all know that processors willing to send to the U.S. are shutting down quick right now. QT is held up, MGS just dropped out U.S. suddenly, Rival just left U.S. suddenly, it's not just Coins. So why are you implying that Coins is dirty? I really don't get why you're implying Nick himself, an employee, is playing dirty. That's very unfair and you have no information that implies that Nick or Coins had better options here.

I don't think posts like that are helpful to anyone.

Can I have the link to that thread?
The thread is: https:// www. affiliateguarddog. com/forums/casino-coins-closing-down-t4064-p4.html

Bit of a storm in a tea-cup if you ask me; The Guru made a flippant post which was very tongue in cheek and obviously meant to be humorous, but some people seem to have lost their sense of humour.
I tell you what - if I didn't have a sense of humour I could NEVER be a casino affiliate!

When humor comes at someone elses expense, I don't find it very funny.

Isn't humor always at someone elses expense? Whatever you are laughing at, can always get offended, although sometimes it can be an object. Nevertheless it's still on its expense.

Being able to laugh along, shows good sense of humor, and perhaps trouble-less life. Being touchy is always connected with insecurities.

Bottom line, I thought of the post as a simply funny. It was obvious that TheGamblingGuru was being sarcastic. I don't see why this should be looked as anything else....

I agree it was meant to be a joke - but it hit a very sore spot with someone who obviously just made a very hard decision and won't be ready to laugh about it for some time.

We can all laugh about what life throws at us eventually, but many things are too painful to view in a humorous light as they happen.

If you think back on your life - the horrible things that happened have lost their bite with time, and memory allows for the humorous aspects to surface. But while you were living it, it was still nothing but horrible.

I am often times finding myself guilty of what I had meant of being as a joke but I (especially when I am starting to have a good time) forget that tone of voice doesn't carry over paper and even though I am extremely lucky that most my friends understand that I am not likely to make a statement that is THAT crude, in any means except as being a joke,

when I go back and read my own words, it is easy to see how i could have been misunderstood.

Try already mentioned he understands that G is
forthright call-it-as-you-see it type and that's fair enough,
so I think that with that impression of someone (which I note is an impression I would not ever take as being an offensive remark, were it me) .. and the fact that G in his first post, seemingly ducks in and out of the
if the truth be known... which it will be before long, I'm sure it's not too damn far from the truth of the matter.
Frankly I am more leaning towards thinking he wasn't kidding ... that more confirmed with the post I quoted above.

My point being is that neither party was wrong.

If it wasn't meant jokingly , then I agree with the majority that it was a bit too far.

But we have now established that it was in jest, however bad the timing, so lets move on.
