^This is my understanding of the latest shambles.

It's as if this is a new company making loads of mistakes, trying to find their feet, yet they have almost a monopoly on the market.

If there was any decent competitor, it would be the end of Pokerstars.

I was joking with this post, but I just updated and apparently that's EXACTLY what they have done.

This way they can spin it as a free 20% increase in StarsCoins on Jan 1st (instead of the devaluation it really is).

Even tho im against every single change of amayastars, I dont like this offensive behaviour. They did not lie at all (regarding this aspect, lel.) and if you had an at least average intelligence you could figure yourself.

everything is already listed in starscoins.. was that not supposed to happen in 2016?

FPPs aren't really going away. What is happening is they are just changing the name and stealing some of the money back from players with a devaluation.

These software updates show you how it's all just a sleight of hand. Really sad.

This is an artifact of a very complex client deployment process across a matrix of licenses (BE, BG, EE, EU, COM, etc.) and devices / Operating Systems (desktop, phone, tablet / Win, Mac, iOS, Android). The client deployments take about two to three weeks to roll out across all permutations of this matrix.

For a program that we want to initiate in January, we have to have the relevant components in place in the client in the December build deployments. Many of the functions/graphics can remain hidden until the switch is thrown in January, but not everything.

So, for a few weeks, the FPPs will show as StarsCoin, but the actual exchange won't happen until January, when the new VIP Steps program is turned on.

Sorry for any confusion this has caused.

so the conversion to "starscoins" already happened?? thought that was 2016.

If pokerstars doesn't make it right will negranos resignation come into play again?

Until the higher ups tell him to STFU and he says, "shucks guys well I tried"

Only as an artifact of a very complex client deployment process across a matrix of licenses and devices.

Hahahahahahaha, nice try

super complex matrix **** you guys wouldn't understand, do you know how hard it is to show a "star symbol" instead of an little 'F'? **** takes months of prep work.

PS matt you look like a goof in almost every reply

Don't look in the mirror brah.

Got my shiny new stars coins today. I feel all warm and tingly.

Its for the greater good of the eco system.

I was gonna check on my StarsCoin balance the other day but cannot get into my account. Had SMS code verification enabled and no code was ever sent in five attempts lol.

Just logged on to use FPPs before they change them... but they've been converted to StarsCoin already.... how come?

they haven't been converted yet, just renamed in advance to create more confusion... but the value is same as before, it's safe to exchange them now. their value will get stolen on Jan 1st.

Alright cheers!

man that lie sounds great, need to use this more often

-it's not what you think!!
-who is she then?
-an artifact of a very complex client deployment process across a matrix of licenses and devices
-oh, ok carry on

Just me or has the point earning also stopped?
I'm not getting any starscoins what so ever and the FPP has certainly all but disappeared.

^ It now arrives in steps. So it is a chunk at a time, once you have completed/cleared that step.

For the UK site, but my account is for the .com right now as I'm out of the UK more often than not.
There aren't any steps on the .com site and my coins are stuck at 92.xx after earning over 100 vpp.
