We're trying to gauge if vBookie is still a popular feature.. we understand some of you still enjoy it but we have to look at it in proportion with the entire user-base and decide if it's still used as much as it once was and is worth keeping.

Please vote in the poll and we'll make a decision that we feel is best for the website and its users. The results of this poll (yes to no ratio) will not make up our decision in its entirety, as although I would expect it to favour 'yes' (as the people who would bother voting in this are likely to be in favour, those who aren't are just disinterested) it is more of a matter of how many people do.

Voted no. The only reason people will vote for it is so they can increase their already extreme amounts of vbux. Everyone who bets on it has millions of vbux. I say just remove it, save that space and effort of people advertising it when only a select few care.

I voted no.
The majority of NGU have millions of vBux, which most of them "giveaway" for free, which gains them a little reputation here and there.
I have never used vBookie unless I needed the vBux, people have way too much now. Talk about over inflation.

Edit: Wow, people groaned this. (I see no reason as to why)

It wouldn't be a lost cause if you guys promoted it more and got decent vBookies in. Today's UK games haven't even been settled. On one of the games, it's been 6 and a half motherfucking hours and I want my money.

Seriously guys, voting no isn't going to make your NGU experience better nor worse. Getting rid of vBookie would simply make vBux even more useless, and I am not just saying that because I am a bookie.

Actually having vbookie makes vbux more useless by the day. Yours for example, I bet you bet on vbookie a lot which gives you extremely high amounts of vbux, and you arent the only person who has that many.
