'Gaming Today' dumps Fa La La La La.... La la la la

[oej719]

I sent a copy of Robs last e-letter to the publisher of GT along with a thank you for showing the crook the door.
He just wants people to come to LV and use his slot card and take pot shots(special plays) and if you are lucky enough to hit guess who gets paid since you are using his card? And if nothing hits guess who has lost their money taking pot shots? Then he is gone to blow off the next victim.

You left out the best part, SM.  Just for the sake of argument, let's say that GT did indeed make him an offer.  In his explanation of why he turned it down he said it was because GT wanted more specific information in his column about play strategy, pattern recognition, etc.  That's a legitimate request.  If he doesn't need the money anyway (he says), what problem does he have with providing more specific information in GT for the masses instead of saving it for personal training? () 
 
The more information he provides the more obvious it becomes that his entire system is a scam. In addition, by the time he goes through all the silly cashing out to collect a 45 credit FH (or manually keeping a log) and then re-inserting money over and over again many people get confused and decide it's not worth the effort.
 
The other reason 99% of what he provides are ridiculous claims of constantly winning is simple ... people want to believe. Sad to say that many people want to believe so badly they easily fall for the con.

Shadow you are so right about people want it to be easy and simple. Poof like magic. We all can shove our jobs and play vp and make a killing. He preys on peoples weakness without anything to loose.
People soon see he is a fraud and move on.

That's true, oej, but for each person who moves on there's a new one just getting into the game.  Always more "fresh meat" for him to prey on; that's how he's survived as long as he has.  So, we need to remain ever vigilant.

I think that pounding the same statement over and over in threads all over the board is the wrong way to bring to the attention of the masses the message that is being conveyed.Make it simple.  Make it OBNOXIOUS!Take out an Ad here on vp.com that constantly flashes the message!  Gold Members certainly have the message already so the ad blocking is not going to prevent them from knowing it.But the masses of people logging in who do NOT come into the forum would see it when they play the games.

In his newest column on his website he went to Reno and played 8 sessions and won all 8. He won when he used his new "pattern detection" game plan. No longer RTT. now it is pattern detection. The guy is a fraud and a liar.

That's a neat idea, even if the ad simply is a link to a forum like the shadowman/Fa La La La La.... La la la la stuff, or another section with scam info.    Now, who pays for the ad? 

[MikeA]

Now, do you really think that VP.COM is going to accept an ad that might bring them into a Slander Lawsuit?    I'm sort of surprised that we are allowed to continue mentioning the topic though, it is truth and can be proven easily enough.

california supreme court ruled that "freedom of speech" protects internet posters making it very difficult to sue for liabl;e, or slander

Rob's antics are ongoing, so ours should be too!   
 
It's true that 90% of what we post on the subject is somewhat repetitious and can be found sprinkled throughout different forums and threads.  But if we stop writing about him, he'll simply say on his site that he "silenced the critics on VP.com".    
 
I usually try to include something entertaining in my Rob posts (well, *I* think they're entertaining!).  And, oej - well, what can anyone say about oej?  Always something new and fresh in his posts.
