Resurrection of Ramashiva Rules
OK. I am going to resurrect my dormant blog, Ramashiva Rules --
http://www.ramashivarules.blogspot.com/
I set up this blog over a year ago with the intention of making all my RGP (rec.gambling.poker, a usenet newsgroup accessible with a newsreader such as Outlook Express or a web interface like www.recpoker.com) thread-starting posts blog entries. My intention was just to provide a teaser and a link to the blog entry.
At Ramashiva Rules, we can have a reasonable discussion without being interrupted by trolls. I have complete moderation control over comments. You must register with Blogger to even post comments. If you post abusive, insulting comments, I will simply not let them be published. And I will report your abuse to Blogger. If Blogger bans you, you will not be able to make comments on any Blogger blog. Not only that, you will not be able to set up blogs using Blogger.
Before clicking the link to Ramashiva Rules, please turn off Ad Blocking and set your monitor's resolution to 1152x864 or higher.
When you turn off Ad Blocking, you will see banner ads at the top and Amazon recommended book links down the right side. I would be very grateful if you click on these links whenever you wish to purchase a recommended book. I would also be very grateful if you click on the banners at the top if you wish to patronize the banner's sponsor.
Right now, there are three banners --
Amazon.com
Party Poker
PokerRoom
Please click on the Amazon banner whenever you wish to make any purchase at Amazon, not just books. I will receive a 5% affiliate commission for all purchases you make after clicking on the banner.
I am only going to provide banners for internet poker rooms which do not offer rakeback through affiliates. I am not going to insult your intelligence by providing banners for internet poker rooms which do offer rakeback through affiliates. In other words, you will only see banners for poker rooms for which no rakeback is available. So, if you want to help me, you can do so by signing up with an internet poker room by clicking on one of my affiliate banners.
Currently I have two banners -- Party Poker and Poker Room. I have played a lot at these two poker rooms, and I recommend them without reservation. The only poker room banner I am planning to add is Paradise Poker, where I played exclusively for about two years starting in 2000. Needless to say, I also recommend Paradise Poker.
I am not saying these are the best poker rooms on the internet, but they are all excellent. The best poker rooms, in my opinion, are Poker Stars and Full Tilt Poker. Of course, Poker Stars has no affiliate program, and Full Tilt Poker offers 27% rakeback through affiliates.
OK. Enough of the commercial spam. Let me tell you what I have in mind for my blog posts. Every thread-starting post on RGP will also have a blog entry on Ramashiva Rules. The blog entry will be an edited version of my RGP post. I have to edit, because Blogger will not allow me to quote full articles, as is my practice on RGP.
Also, every significant post I make on RGP which does not start a new thread will appear in an edited version on Ramashiva Rules. Don't expect me to get involved in many debates and flame wars the way I do now. If you want to discuss one of my posts on RGP, please go to the corresponding webpage on Ramashiva Rules. As I have indicated, I have full moderation capability on my blog. If you are nasty, insulting, or just trolling, please do not expect your comment to see the light of day. Please expect that I will report your abuse to Blogger.
Besides providing a running mirror of my RGP posting, I also plan to republish my entire posting history on RGP, at least the most significant posts. These will all be flagged as Ramashiva RGP History, Part XXX. One reason I am doing this is that many new RGP readers have no knowledge of my posting history, and they think I never post about poker. They are wrong.
So come on over and join the fun. I promise you that you will not be molested by trolls. And please help me out by clicking on the affiliate banners and book links, when appropriate.
