I logged out an hour ago and can't log back in. Anyone else having the same problem by chance?

$royal$flush$ · 12-15-2008, 02:13 PM

Nope.

**gtpitch** · 12-15-2008, 02:30 PM

Uh oh...

That's never a good sign. Shoot an email off to support and security.

My buddy just had the same thing happen to him. Just curious...have you hit the level you needed to qualify for your year-end Iron Man bonus? He hasn't yet and was thinking, if this was widespread, that perhaps it was a guise to keep from paying out some of those bonuses. He uses nothing but PT3 while playing.

Full Tilt Poker Security and Fraud

PT3 is all I use, and I don't use tabletracker. I 16-table 100NL. WTF.

Do you datamine?

RaeNegley · 12-15-2008, 05:54 PM

Do you guys think FTS falls under prohibited programs?

I keep reading and rereading the terms and can't decide.

I don't think that it would. With FTS you still have to make the decisions. FTS just makes the actions easier. But you are still "playing"

RaeNegley · 12-15-2008, 06:17 PM

Just read under the FTS thread and the programer specifically says that it and FTTO are ok. Just seemed by the wording that you could make an argument for them being prohibited.

No, but that doesn't appear to be what they're investigating anyway. I do occasionally visit tableratings, but never while playing.

I briefly jumped to 16 tables of 200NL last night (like 200 hands). FT wouldn't lock an account based on someone sending an email saying something like "OMG look this guy is 16-tabling 200NL he must be a bot," would they?

Well maybe but I doubt it if it was just one person. I mean people 16 table on FTP fairly regularly AFAIK.
