Welcome! READ BEFORE POSTING! FAQ and other awesome information

Welcome to the Home Poker forum!

Welcome to the Home Poker forum on the 2+2 poker website. Please read this entire sticky, especially before you post. If you have any questions or need something, feel free to PM the mods of this forum.

READ BEFORE YOU POST!

Finding Players or Games
DO NOT post about any online game, whether or not it is called "Home Poker."

If you want to list your home game, or if you are looking for a home game, go to the Home Game Listings sub-forum.

Here is a screenshot of the link from the Home Poker forum:

Also, please DO NOT publicly advertise specific home games before reading the sticky thread "FAQ: READ FIRST! Rules, and How to find....

Any games that are raked or require any type of fee to play in should be posted in the [U]Pay-to-Play Game Listings thread[/U].

Additional Guidelines
The other guidelines for posting here are simple. We try to take a very liberal view on acceptable topics in this forum, provided it is related to home poker games in some way.

While home games often have a bit of fun trash-talking, we try to keep the tone friendly and supportive. Do not write something overtly offensive or blatantly trollish that wouldn't be tolerated if we were all sitting around a poker table in a home game.

While we don't mind threads about general poker strategy, probability, basic rules of the games themselves, there are other forums for that which might give you a better response.

Product and company reviews are encouraged when the products or services sold are related to home poker. When posting a review, please try to provide as much relevant, factual information as possible. Avoid rants, axe-grinding, and posting old/outdated information. If you are a vendor, you are permitted to respond to reviews as long as you adhere to the vendor guidelines listed below.

Vendors
2+2 allows most vendors to post on our forums without advertising with us. However, they need to verify their account with us and post within some very narrow restrictions:

• You cannot post at all until you get approval as a site/room representative.
  
• No site/room name, portion of site name, or initials are allowed in your screen name.
  
• No site logo in your avatar.
  
• No promotional posts of any kind are permitted unless you have an advertising/sponsorship agreement with 2+2. You can answer questions, but you can't advertisewithout an agreement.
  
• You cannot start your own support thread; you can only reply in existing threads to direct questions that aren’t promotional in nature.
  
• Violations of the promotional post rule, including having friends/shills lob out fake questions, will be dealt with harshly.
