I guess anyone who's backed on merge won't be playing anymore.

Well this sucks. Now I feel really lucky for getting the CC stake on Carbon before this happened. This will dry up the games a lot

Yea I'm on a CC stake right now. I'm wondering what to do now if I double(knock on wood). I guess I can just ship paypal. Though it kind of just seems like a sneaky way of getting me to deposit :p:p:p

Don't understand why they'd do this. Guess that'll put me off going thru the painful verification process a bit more now.

HMMM I get it now MERGE is so scarred people will xfer enough to cash out and I guess they cant afford to cash people out. ITs the only logical reason, I bet most people only deposit the min in case of shutdown and now since they dont want to take credit cards they dont want people to get their money RED FLAGS BEING THROWN BY THIS Site ALL OVER THE PLACE

No big deal, I couldn't sign up to a Merge site anyway because I'm American.

Carbon will be running their own, separate, cashier in conjunction with their sportsbook after the merger of those two operations in Nov.
They'll still be Merge.
idk if they will allow ptp transfers to other Carbon players.

Uhm, does this only apply to Black Chip Poker, or Merge in totality?

Guess I'm gonna start opening some Merge rooms and checking it out.

EDIT: Don't see the transfer screen in Carbon or RPM. This is the writing on the wall, people. If I could wager on it, I'd bet that Merge and Revolution are going down, won't be around past middle of 2013. Merge can't take credit cards? Only the most hardcore people deposit via Western Union. Obviously Merge and Revo know about the markets on places like 2p2 where people trade money. People outside the USA can buy Merge at 75% or whatever, play through the rollover, and then cashout through skrill/Moneybookers. Merge and Revo obviously have a cash flow problem (e.g. no one is depositing!!!)

I'm curios too.

Obv it isn't a smart move for them. So I'm just wondering what made this a necessary move. You would think sites would just look at the industry leaders (PS, FT, Titan, Party) and attempt to mimic them. I would imagine they think that since ppl aren't allowed to have money transferred, they will just deposit. Which is just illogical thinking.

This isn't a monopoly. Keep taking away our priveleges and we will just go elsewhere. At least thats my opinion.
