Basics:
So What is Pokerowned?
Pokerowned is essentially a GetPaidTo website that enables you to earn points through doing various things which u can then redeem for either free roll entry, poker cash and online shopping cash/vouchers.
Pokerowned is also a forum where poker players can come together and discuss many topics all divided into subsections to make it easier for you the member to find. Subjects range from bad beats, tourney discussions, advice and heads up on promos that any poker site may be holding at that current time. This thread will teach you how to navigate the forum to effectively post in the right section to ensure that you can get the best reaction possible to whatever it is you are posting about.
Pokerowned is an affiliate, this means that it as a site is closely linked to many of the poker skins at which it hosts freerolls for and it means that you can trust poker owned to deliver the best possible service when dealing with redeems/issues. The admins at this site are committed to helping us members with any and all issues that we may come across when dealing with the free rolls they host or any promotions that are linked with Pokerowned.

Chatbox:
On the home page you will have noticed the chatbox, this is an instant messaging part of the site that is open to all users once you have made at least 1 post in the forums. It is a good place to meet new people, make new rivals and have a laugh. There is a strict no drama policy and mods have the ability to ban you from the chatbox for a length of time they deem fit (standard is a 30 min chat ban). There are 2 channels, ch1 is for general chat and ch2 is for trade advertisements, although it is advised that you use the marketplace section of the thread for best results.

Bubble chat:
At the bottom of the website you will notice a personal, instant chat feature of the site known as buble chat. It allows you to talk to members on a more private level and is a good way to make new friends or ask for help.

Search feature:
Pokerowned has a search function so that you can find a specific thread or topic, this tool is incredibly useful if you are looking for something that may not appear on the first page of the desired sub forum and can save you as a member a lot of time and energy.
