How to add Poker News Facebook application
June 15, 2009Pokernews has just launched a new application in Facebook called "Poker News from PokerNews". You can add it to your profile or your Facebook Page. Here are some small guidelines on how to do it.
Step 1. Opening the application
Please go to http://apps.new.facebook.com/poker-news/ where you will find the entire Poker News application. In the right column you can select the categories you would like to see filtered. If you do not select anything, the application will show all the news stories.
Step 2. Adding it to your profile
If you want to add this application to your profile, please click "Add to profile" button at the right-bottom box called Pokernews.com Tools. A splash screen with your application preview will appear. You may then select where you want to place it – on your Wall and info Tabs or in the Box tab. Let's try Wall and Info Tabs first.
Once you have clicked the "Add" button at the bottom you are then redirected to your profile. Facebook suggests keeping it just below your friends' box. Please click the "Keep" button. Facebook adds this application to your profile, but you may drag and drop it yourself anywhere you want.
Step 3. Moving it to the Boxes tab
Boxes tab is less visible than the profile information to your friends; therefore I would recommend keeping this application in your profile. You could have moved the application to the Boxes tab by following Step 2, just using the Boxes tab instead of Wall. There is a little pencil icon next to the name of the application. If you click it, you will see 2 options: Move to Boxes tab or (I shouldn't have mentioned the second option) Remove Box. Please click 'Move to Boxes' tab.
Here you go! You are redirected to the Boxes page and you can see the application just at the top.
Of course, you can move it to any position you want simply by dragging it and dropping. Please remember that the Right column in the Boxes is narrow, therefore the looks of the application will change. If you want to return it to the Wall tab, just click on the pencil (edit) icon.
Step 4. Adding it to your page
If you are the administrator of any Facebook page, you can easily add the Poker News application to it. Just go to the start page of the application and instead of "add to Profile" click the small link below – "Add to Page"
Select the page you want to add it to and then approve the access to this page by clicking "Add Pokernews" button.
Then go to the Edit page and make sure the settings have the wall and Tab enabled.
Then go to the page and click "+" at the end of your tabs to add Pokernews as a new tab.
You can change the order of tabs by drag&dropping the Tabs.
Done! Congratulations! You now have all the latest and best quality poker news from PokerNews.com. You can always check on how it looks at Pokernews Facebook Page (please become a PokerNews Fan as you have already took a visit

Get rid off Private Messages spammer yourself
May 23, 2008Recently the editors complained that some smart members are spamming the Private messages with their affiliate offers and even this type of spam "I need to cash out 1 mill dollars through your account so send me $100" occur. As I cannot know all the spammers - I cannot ban them immediately. Therefore we have (always had) the anti-spam feature - black list.
If over a period of time (I will not provide exact numbers on purpose) the same message sender is blocked by few people, he cannot send private messages at all. When you will receive spam message from some spammer, please do not delete it immediately. Before deleting, just read it and click "Block this users messages" below the sender's nickname.
Block spammer!The spammer will go to your black list. If you will want to unban him, you will need delete the nickname from the black list.
Dear editors and moderators!
If you see that spammer sent the private messages to particular people of your community, please organize the "block the spammer" activities.
Dear spammers!
Please use blogroll for your affiliate links and write normal blog to attract the readers. This way of earning is better than spamming to the PMs as i will ban you all. Do not waist mine and your time
