It is not just "big names" or known players that were fake or phony, but they lifted entire threads from other forums to make it look like that discussion with all legit and credible members took place on their forum when it didn't and not one of the people involved in the discussion were even members there.

I don't know exactly what you would call that but it is some kind of theft and fraud.

When you build a forum on the back of that kind of thing, you end up with what they have now...Singer, Mdog a guy calling himself a punk in punkcity and other known trolls dominating and pushing trolling and hate to limits not seen before.
When GF first started they sent invitations to everyone who is anyone in gambling. Some big names signed up and posted in the Introductions section but didn't stick around.

Henry Tamburin, Frank Scoblete, Mike Caro, Tom McEvoy, John Growchowski, Steve Bourie, Linda Johnson, Richard Marcus, Dan Paymar....
