Today I opened Carbonpoker up,to find out they did away with their Monthly VIP freerolls.I had qualified for the $2500 each month.Now they are gone.
So what do you guys think about sites like Carbon,that change the rules after you qualify?This is a very big disappointment!

I'm not sure but I think they just changed the VIP structure/tourney schedule.

Didn't bother to read the whole thing yet, though.

Check yourself at will.

they're the last Saturday of every month still, but you have to earn a certain amount of VIP point to qualify for whichever freeroll level you r in.

I've never played on there much but was considering playing a handful of MTT's (ie. maybe 25-30 $10-$22, some $3 & $5rebuys sorta thing), as I've got a couple of bucks on there. Around a month or so ago (bit longer maybe?) I sifted thru the MTT lobby, wrote a schedule of ones I could add in at same time as some on othe sites. Now I've gone back & looked again & it seems like there's way fewer of them? (less guar. prizepool MTT's).

Anyone else notice this?

I haven't played much on there because frankly I don't like the software (espeically don't like the bet slider & bet thing where #'s are entered... seems to often f k up on me, put out wrong-sized bets or have to fumble around with it which I find distracting & time-consuming). I also try to make the tables as plain as possible in appearance, having the cards stand out with good contrast vs. the table background, chips/bets to stand out, etc. It feels like I'm playing in a cartoon though. I just don't like it much.

That's the shits about a promo or whatever, not staying consistent (ie. like your's you've mentioned here... that sucks!!!)

I know they just changed a bunch of stuff but i think those freerolls will still be on. The ones at the end of Feb were on and they have a few weeks to put the March ones up. Tournament schedule will probably be getting updated too. I'll keep an eye on it and let you know.

They had the march vip games up,and I was registered in it,but they took them down yesterday...so we shall see if they put them back up or not...

As PokerOrafice said,there does seem to be alot less games choices also...I was looking thru Cakepoker and skins,and they removed all kinds of great games.I dont know what sites are thinking,but removing games is not the answer....for myself,If I cant find a game I like,I just will not play any.
Put more games up,not less,if you want my business!

Whenever they do a big upgrade they re-jig the tourney schedule. At first it looks a bit barren but bit by bit they fill them up. I'm pretty sure they'll go back up before the end of the month as they're still advertised all over the VIP promo stuff. As the man with pingpong balls for eyes used to say...'Patience grasshopper'. :)

Cool,I emailed them and they gave me a $60 coupon,cause Im in the water level of vip.for my birthday...they said the vip freerolls will run too,but im not sure about the qualifications to get into it.
I play a few double-up sngs thru the month,but I dont grind a whole lot there.We will see later I guess.
If you been playin a carbon a few years,you need to check n see what level you are.Theres a few perks you may be missing...I didnt know I was at this high level,until jan of this year,bummer huh!
