Im just wondering where is the NDNPT.... Is there something better than it comming up???

Why the change? There are several reasons why I am making a change.
Most importantly, I decided to make this change because the current system took a LOT of work to maintain (for myself as well as eejit101).
The current system is open to far too much abuse and even after several attempts to curb the abuse there has been little improvement.
I've grown progressively frustrated at the amount of arguments I have seen between members of the forum in regards to our loyalty system and that's the complete opposite affect of what the system is supposed to do.
I've had to ban more members in the last month than I have had to ban in the last five years.
Just so everyone knows, NDN has been around for 5-years now and it is NOT going anywhere.
Your comments hurt me Navuta. Specifically this comment:Quote:

If you believe NDN has nothing left to offer after September 1st then I am truly saddened.
I'd like to think that even without a loyalty system in place, this site still has a lot to offer and our community is still strong.
I think U should make ringo a moderator... He posts more than eejit.. and i think is more interessted on NDN than him... (u to are the right person to judge)...Quote:

True.. about the arguments between people that complained about the rep system.. theses people dont deserve being here. I will Always be on your side NDN...
I know NDN will always be a very nice to come and meet my friends... IVen if this dosent give me nothing in exchange....
This place rocks and always will...
sorry... I was being a little sarcastic...Quote:

I have no words to explain how Im on greatitude to NDN forum...
really.... Cant say how much this site has done for me..
PLEASE DONT DO LIKE ME.. Complaing just to complain....
Sorry NDN...
Though I don't have anything set in stone - Here are some basic ideas of what is to come.
Drawings
We will continue to have a drawing for a large item each month (Playstation 3, Xbox 360, and more).
We may introduce daily, weekly, and monthly drawings for poker money.
Tournaments
We will introduce poker, blackjack, and slot tournaments with real money prize pools. You will be able to purchase the passwords to these games just like the chips tournaments. The chip buy-in amount will likely be much higher than our previous games to help control the number of players in the games. This will help ensure that each game is extremely valuable in regards to the number of players vs. the prize pool. The frequency of these games are to be determined, but we could potentially have multiple games a day. These games will be held on multiple platforms so we are not stuck on Merge every day. This also directly benefits the site because there will be more interest from new players if they see games with an actual prize pool (instead of the $0 prize pool that they've been seeing for a few months).
Shop
Random items will be added to the shop and you will be able to use your chips to purchase these items.
I have many ideas on my "to do list" and I expect to include more of them in the future.
At the moment, my main focus is on getting the tournaments back up and running and then I will have more time to spend on tweaking the system to make it as valuable and entertaining as possible for everyone involved.
I also have a BIG BIG BIG event that I am working on that has never been done before and EVERYONE is going to love it.
This place has really changed my life...
In many ways.. .I have no words to describe it...
I have made lots of friends..
I have learnd a lot of poker.
I have earned some real money.
I have tried lots of new games.
I have had lots of fun..
I improved my english...
I discovered a new world...
I WILL NEVER LEAVE THIS GREAT PLACE!!!.
MY SECOND HOME!..
MY SENCOND FAMILY!:iagree:
Eejit101 is the #1 poster on NDN...Quote:

Thanks NDN for explaining the change better.
I see where you are coming from now and I support your decision 100%.
Our gaming and social interaction is our most important part of NDN and I feel that you have our best interest at heart.
I feel better now.
Sorry if I came across as scary.
I tried to keep the dialog positive and open minded.
I think the debate has gone well and the conclusion quite satisfactory.:bigear:
I agree with Ringo- I definitely support this forum no matter what but I did feel blindsided by the changes. Maybe it was my mood that day but it also carried a sense of impending doom with it, like Ringo said. I know that was not your intention! I'm looking forward to what's in store for our chips and our time together as a forum, and I really appreciate you being open and honest with us about the changes, and explaining them more now. You're a great mod!Quote:

I didn't mean to blindside anyone! I gave a 30-day notice for everyone to do what they wish with their chips (and you can still earn more chips and redeem them during this period).Quote:

I have yet to try a slot tournament buts sounds interesting. I think what you are doing is going to be great for everybody in the long run, and i cant wait to hear whats gonna happen. Im all ears:bigear:Quote:

Thank you NDN for everything. I can't wait to see what the big big event is going to be. I have all kind of ideas running thru my head. I feel NDN would not be the same without eejit, because he is a huge part of it and always will be. Too many Mod's can get out of control and then the power trips start. I like NDN just the way it is now. No disrespect to anybody, but if ain't broke, don't fix it.
For sure this place will always be the best poker forum on the net. no matter what.
I will always come here to check out my friends news.
Thank u NDN for everthing u always gave us...
U are great.. also this site is great.. I guess everthing u do is great...
:drool5: Cant wait to see how everthing will turn out...
ok!!
i dont have enought chips to buy so ill wait for the future!!
I, and many others have waited, with much patience, aticipating what may be in store soon. Like a smoker without my favorite cigs, having to smoke some not so great off-brand:rant:, I fret and check NDN everyday, my eyes boggling over every nook and cranny, trying to find some news of something exciting, some news of the new changes being implemented, but to no avail.:frown: Its like having a pond down the road, stocked full of huge fish, but it has been temporarily been close down due to some negligent waste removal company.
I am excited about the changes taking place. but the anticipation has drove me crazy lol.:biggrinjester:
Hehe take a :chillpill: Pan, it's only the third day of August!Quote:

And your chips are still valuable, so rack them up while you can and cash them in! Without :spam: of course!
Thanks for giving us a lot of time to decide just what we want to do with our chips NDN. Was a nice thing to have, but I didn't join the forum to collect chips I joined to play in the great tournaments with just as great competition. Also to enjoy the info and friends on here.
