Give Us Some Info Ellen

Hi Guys,

I just got word from the tech department about the issues some of you had with links and downloads.

This is what I was told:

"The IE7 fix was temporarily lost when a new version of the client was deployed yesterday.. This was a once-off problem due to the fact that the new client was branched prior to the fix and hence went live without it. Obviously any clients released from now on wont have that problem".

Thanks again for your questions and if you have any further questions please feel free to email me directly at or .

Cheers,

Ellen

I was just about to sign up for poker.com


Questions

Why would a brandable name like poker.com switch emphasis to a non brandable name like carbon poker?

If someone signs up as an affiliate to carbonpoker are they still tracked to poker.com

If it is a skin site why would poker.com be pushing them?

If it is poker.com with a new name what would the reason be for moving away from the best domain name in the poker world other than the actual sale of the domain name & if that is the case..........

Hi guys,

Here are some more answers to all of your questions, keep the questions coming so that I can continue to reply to them .

It was important that the Carbon Poker brand be launched at the same time as the MergeGaming network, with the decision to make this the premium brand moving forwards in terms of branding and recognition at tournaments and public events. This was done through a series of phased transitions, the first being the domain and next the affiliate traffic. Obviously there have been some issues which have arisen due to duplicate accounts and player tracking, but we have now resolved these.

Is it ok that I own domains like -CarbonPoker.info, CarbonPokerBonuses.com ,CarbonpokerReview.com
The is no problem at all with you owning the above domains to promote CarbonPoker. The new affiliate page for Carbon Poker will be ready to use on the 9th of February, so will be able to start CarbonPoker as .Jearly as next weekend

Will Poker.com be accepting new players?
Carbonpoker will become the focus of the new MergeGaming network and as such affiliates will shortly be provided with a range of creatives and landing pages to begin promoting the new brand. Carbon Poker will continue be promoted on Poker.com as one of the featured sites.

Will Poker.com and Carbonpoker be running together as one similar to Noble and Titan?
Both rooms belong to the MergeGaming network, however CarbonPoker will be the premium brand being promoted through the affiliate program and on the poker.com portal moving forward.

What is a UNIQUE FINGERPRINT...are you taking them electronically from our mouses?
When an existing player signs up with Carbon Poker, the installer will examine the system registry to look for an existing affiliate identifier. If found, it will use this when creating the carbonpoker player account. For players which have already transition, we have utilized our in-house unique player fingerprinting system to reassign affiliate tracking codes to all players. This unique digital fingerprint is built from a device (or hardware), software and network information on a players system and is used extensively by our fraud departments to find duplicate accounts and bonus abusers.

Why CARBON poker? A pretty dumb name in MHO?
Lol, I am tempted to send that question thought to the whole office but it might result in chaos! Lol- basically if Jeff and Ben read that the whole office would never hear the end of it! But then again Paulie and Dean would cry, they have been walking around feeling very chuffed with themselves. So in answer to your question, the majority of us believe that Carbon is a very catchy name and a strong brand that will takes us all forward.

Why couldn't you just have some other brand strictly for .net and have the Real Money redirect to poker.com?
The CarbonPoker brand has been chosen to give the network a single coherent brand which can be used in marketing and live events. It will continue to be promoted on the poker.com portal.

Also, if you look at your affiliate stats, any player of yours that sign-ups for CarbonPoker has been tracked back to you .

Keep the questions coming ,

That's what I was wondering I mean fine they are running a skin of the site, but why not push Poker.com. Me personally I think Poker.com is a more attractive name brand than CarbonPoker

[gvpoker]

they cannot advertise poker.com at live events or on t.v as you are not allowed to advertise a poker site with the .com behind the name. however you can advertise with .net behind the name so as they dont own the poker.net name they do own carbon.net domain
