Agreed - a very bad day. This was not something we did easily and took something very bad to make it happen. :(

For now trust us to say it was behavior none of you would condone. :(

He was not banned for being Zach's friend - not sure where you are getting that from. :eek:

I am sure you have not been made aware of everything that lead to this. I am absolutely and literally sick at my stomach because Zach is banned.

Guys please be patient with us as we release more info.

I met Zach personally just a week or 2 ago in LV and he is a great guy - we certainly did not want this to happen.

Just to let everyone know, because a LOT of people are approaching asking for information - I have absolutely none. Although I am close friends with Zach, I have 0% clue why he got banned. I think as someone who isn't a mod/guide anymore we should be patient and expect a full explanation from the mod group, which I have faith will give.

from the position i am in, being 1 of the people mega involved in this (but not on the im a bad guy part, as the innocent bystander) and knowing literally all of the details. There are 2 versions of this story, the side which if you are a poker player, you would understand is part of day in day out of online poker, or the mods warped veiw of what hasn't happened to be too overlyprotective i think

Sorry to hear this.
From an unselfish point of view that you appear to have out alot of time into this forum.
From a selfish point of view that I suspect alot of the forums regs will leave with you. Hence the quality of discussion will drop.

Hopefully its all a big misunderstanding? Right?:(

If things dont change in the very near future I will be leaving as well. Its absolutely ridiculous that one of the very best posters/poker players here is being banned for something so stupid and that is accepted by all true poker players everywhere. If anyone wants to contact me u can also find me at 2+2 under the same screen name.

It seems to me before everyone starts gathering under various flags we should let the mods do what they think needs to be done and await an official explanation.


Right?

Comon guys... these are good folks. Can't we trust they wouldn't do this without a reasonable explanation?

I agree

I think there will be a full explaination and we should at least hear it before threatening to leave etc.

Zach was a great poster, and the mods know this 110%
Zach has a large following and the mods know this too.

Whatever the reasons, I am fairly certain they were not taken lightly or without a hell of a lot of thought and deliberation.

Lets give them some time to write up a full explaination before giving them a hard time.

After all, as far as I am aware, most of them considered Zach their friend too.
