If the rumors are true of Cory charging back and Cory doesn't have any decent explanation (like the book didn't pay him or was going under or something) than I feel the whole case was Karma. Karma she's a bitch! It doesn't make EZ right in even the smallest way but it is one of those examples of justice served in some way. Sort of like when the burglar goes out to rob a bank only to come home and find his house was robbed.
From what I gathered on Hedge in the old EZ thread is that he seemed to really tout EZ while he was getting his free payouts. Once he said that he had cleared his EZ balance his tone changed. He didn't side with Cory but he then admitted that EZ might not be the best book and he wouldn't return. I can respect someone for trying to protect their investment. I would probably do the same if it were me. There were others however who did seem to just shill but who cares since it was very easy to see through.
The people, sorry to say, who came to Cory's regular defense and spammed appeared to be very young or not very "seasoned" in their gambling lives. Which is what made the whole thread seem like a cancer toward the end. These "unseasoned" players came with the attitude of "who cares what really happened, just screw the book". The type of attitude that comes from people who look at the books as some evil entity who steals their money and they want revenge at any cost. For the rest of us we view the books (those that are highly rated) as a respected opponent. We give them our money in trust that if we beat them they will pay up. They take our money with the mutual respect that if we beat them fair and square they will pay us what we are due. It's this foundation that a good book to customer relationship is founded. People who ********** chip away at this relationship that should blindly exist in the industry. I am sorry, I do not respect someone who chargesback unless there is a good reason (book isn't paying them among only a few others). While I do not **********, those people who do ********** make things more complex for me when I want a withdrawal. Back in the early days of online gambling you never had to provide documents and ID. Now you have to practically fill out a mortgage application just to get a payout. Why? Fraud and chargebacks!
In the end I would never bet at EZ if you gave me the money to do it. I hope Cory wins just to watch EZ and TheRX lose their domains but if the "rumors" are true on Cory and his chargebacks then this was his come around and Karma snapped back. I have spoken to Cory a handful of times and he seems like a good guy. I don't wish him ill in this like many people do.
I think the purpose of these forums is to share ideas and once a topic has been exhausted it should be closed. The S&I forum is my favorite here and the constant spamming on all sides really didn't make this forum look good. Forums to me should be maintained like rose bushes; let them grow but once the buds have run their course it is time to cut them off, prune it back, and watch new growth come in its place. Watching the same old topics bumped with no new information is like watching a rose bush consume itself and turn into a throny nest with no flowers because nobody took the time to properly manage it.

That's pretty much the argument of the pro scam book group.
