I don't get anymore a notification when someone reacts to my post, quotes me etc.
@ValDes @cocopop3011

Check notification settings and everything seems okay there, weird.

 

PS: Picture shows that my notifications arent working, I got quoted today couple of times, and had reactions on my posts.

Same happens here, got now delayed notification from 2-3days ago, maybe someone is trying to fix it.




By the way could we get :POG: :KAPPA: and other popular emojis, would be nice addition to the reactions

When I read a casino review I can read if it is restricted in my country.  For some reason the information is often not accurate or up to date.

Lucky Days is restricted in my country according to Askgamblers.  When I visit Lucky Days there is no restriction and I am able to sign up and play. 

I have also seen this with other sites at Askgamblers and the other way around.

Askgamblers reporting no restrictions and when signing up you re not allowed to because of restrictions.

Can you tell me which country you are playing from please and I'll get this checked. 

In the future you can use this feature if you think something is inaccurate in any of our casino reviews.

Thanks for reporting.

Dont let casinos post regular promos. I would only allow no deposit ones so the forum would also be more ibteresting for people to be checked out frequently.

Well we do not want just No deposit hunters, we want users to actually contribute valuable information to the forum. NDB codes and offers are just an add on during your daily visit.

[Wowsowow]

Look at the current state of the forum - getting 100 registration from which are 95 no deposit hunters would still be a good thing if you this place is supposed to get amywhere to am active forum anytime soon but okay...

If you value casinos posting promos which are available regular anyways over getting some population thats fine.

Casinos and casino reps in particular have all the rights to use our forum just like any player. All other options are totally unacceptable.

Ugh....Yes, just what casino's want - ND Bonus hunters.

FYI - the days of regular ND offers died in the main sometime between 2009-2012

Folk who like to gamble in the main just don't hunt for ND offers  -they want the 'depo 10 get 100 FS', 50% plus offers with x30 WR. And then there's folk who don't want them. 

[pinnit2015]

On the topic on bonus's - i see Casumos have basically stopped, UK here at least. Normally you'd see depo 10, get 50 FS. But nada. 

Probably preparing for UK CasExit 

No loss mind you - i see more SOW complaints are cropping up and if they continue like this i've seen casino's dumped in the blacklists online for less 

[Wowsowow]

I get your point. All in all i just wanted to express that there need to be something done to attract more forum members. ^^

 

Yeah UK seems to go their own way with gambling policies since there are an awsome lot uk only versions of bonuses.

I think we've done well enough over the last few years! Are there forums out there that are busier than ours? Yep, probably. Are there ones that are as friendly as ours? Doubt it going by what people tell us is going in the other forums all the time. FYI - I don't really check any other forums and haven't done for  a long time! 

If we had a million new members posting tomorrow we'd welcome them with open arms, if we stayed with the same amount of members we'd be happy too! But thanks for your input.

Also note - that posts from all new members are checked before they are approved onto the forum to make sure they meet the forum guidelines. Those who don't (and there are some most days) simply don't get approved so you never even see them.

Just to clarify: there was no offense intended at all.

Infact the reason i wrote down this thoughts is that i liked the overall vibe in here - thats why i was thinking about ways to help you grow this lovely seed of yours.

It's a fair enough point: i'd probably be inclined to leave a forum, if:

 - They introduced streamers to it - I have literally no interest in watching this nonsense (no offence Flatzem ;-))

 - Became a NDB forum - i join a forum to interact with likeminded folk (be it here or, for example, for my astronomy), not as a playground for hunters; now you see them now you don't. 

Best way to attract IMO is to sell yourself as a place where someone can come on, ask stupid questions, not be shot down, ask about games, ask about issues etc.

I want to say thanks for the atmosphere there

Thanks guys! It really means so much to us that you all like it here - that is our main aim after all.

Exactly the kind of forum Sharon and I are trying to build and offer to you, our fellow members!

I was wondering if AG forum could make it where it would indicate if a members account is banned...

it would show for example in red... (the account name would be in red colour) or the words Banned in red, so many options..

so if you read a post by a banned member you would see that they are banned and well you can't replay to them in the thread for example..

so basically somewhere underneath the account name: it would have for example.... the words BANNED account (and you could include the reason... so it would be for example: Banned for disrespecting admin,,,,, or Banned for cheating in a contest, or Banned for trolling, or Banned for spamming) or in other cases where an account hasn't been logged into for a long time it would have Dormant account or Closed Account

 I see this done on other forums.

Not a bad idea bro, but honestly speaking, I don't see the benefits for us members by showing the banned members.

I'd prefer to just let the sleeping dog lie - peacefully.

So, for months now I've been reading this forum with great interest - lots of valuable information and insights about playing slots and the casinos that offer them.

But it's really surprising to see how much obvious spam/shill slips through and just remains undeleted. I appreciate that it is a lot of work to keep a constant watch for these things but it would make the forum a great deal tidier and would also make it easier to take posts seriously. I mean, I can read a full post from someone and only at the bottom realise it was just spam. 

The forums have some ever-presents. Take Jax or Afi, I think nothing whatsoever escapes their attention and they are already policing it all quite well - even politely. Can't their users be enabled to hide or delete such spam, then it would be continuously.

(I'd suggest @Icy too but he has enough to do already, and I'm not sure if he can be trusted. One double-space mistake in your post and he'd instantly delete the whole thing).
