I've been playing play money on full tilt poker for quite a while now and i think i'm ready to move to real money.

I like to play tournaments a lot, and occassionally the cash games. Which online poker room should i use? Several people have told me to stick to full tilt if i'm playing cash, and poker stars if i'm going to play tournaments.

Any suggestions?

would we be correct in assuming you didn't sign up on FTP through a rakeback affiliate?

If you have never played a raked hand on FTP you can still get rackback.

You may have to get a new screen name tho.

They seem to have more fish at Poker Stars, I think it has to do with them having twice as many players.

Disagree that stars is fishier than FT.

Both have juicy tables and nitty tables, and neither is better on average. Just use table selection is all....

If you just want to play with fishtwits and don't care about the overall poker experience, try an online sports book or something. I <3 Stars myself though.
