Personally I hope they roll back this anonymisation ASAP and give us back our HHs. It's been too long now...
That's the wrong way to enforce something. If you want to stop HUDs, you ban huds. Banning screen scrapping, because some converters can use it to build a HUD is a long way to enforce your new policy.
You can use memory grabber (PT4 does it btw!), or you can even write down names every time someone join the table. Screen scrap is only one option.
As I said, I still didn't see anything from PartyPoker saying HH converters are not allowed.
Truth is they don't care... they are just trying to make poker a soft game for recs, to get more traffic. (It's fair, they want to make money! But it is not fair allow bots/converters to have an advantage on us)
Hope they roll back.
It's a joke the way they say "unfair advantage" for cash games, but allow it for Tournaments.
