EGaming Supply writes their Rules & Regulations in a perfect way to manipulate you. How so? Hear me out...
I registered at eGamingSupply.com with entering all sorts of information including an email address. Then I was redirected, saying I need to check my email for a confirmation (to be expected, rite). I checked my email... Nothing. Usually its instant, but maybe I'll wait 5 minutes...
Nothing.
So I made another account (this is the internet, people - or at least me - expect results INSTANTLY - no patience here on the internet). Same process but with a different email. Checked my email again. Oh hey, the confirmation email arrived INSTANTLY. So I confirmed my account but as I triy to use their services, I was redirected with a message saying: Banned: Reason not given. Ban lift: Never.
I clicked on Contact Us immediately because I was confused... Wtf did I do? Then I was redirected AGAIN. It said that making multiple accounts was BANNED. Oh okay, I understand - so thats what I did - and I agree, thats a good precaution - I guess - wait, whats the big deal? Hmm... But this next is what REALLY ticks me off... Then I read on to be informed that to unban my account, I could acquire a TrustWho certificate for... A mesely $10. Eh, I rather use the services which were free, for free.
So I search for more information. I tried logging in my old account but I did not have sufficent "privilages" until confirmation. Tried to find a way to resend confirmation, but no luck. They even have a section just for activation in their FAQ (how convenient - guess this happens a lot?) stating that the email normally surfaces instantly and if it does not occur within 30 minutes, its not their fault. They have a link in the FAQ page to resend the confirmation email, but its a dead link...
Very VERY disappointed. Very manipulative of their own Rules & Regulations AND very shady to try to have me nudged over to pay them $10 just to have the an account unbanned... One I never used and apparently was "violating their Rules & Regulations" (how convenient for them). Even if the rules weren't BS, they manipulated this so I would violate them. I'm sure they don't do this to everyone or that'll ruin their rep, but perhaps they automate it to screw with a certain small percentage, hoping for some capital out of this SCAM!
Its just a forum. Why do I have to pay $10 to use a forum?! BS!
I'm so disappointed... EGaming Supply will probably respond in like months or years from now in some professional yet subtly condescending manner, trying to flip this on me. I can already see it now... Well, in advance, if complaint don't mind me being blunt: F* you eGaming Supply! If this wasn't intentional (highly unlikely), then you guys are just RETARDED! Money makes the world go around... Around with a bunch of A*holes like you.
