Organized Party Poker sitout, in protest of sitout scum.

As most of you reading this know party is filled with scum that insta sitout sitin, table block etc. Party has acknowledged this issue for over a year and said a fix was coming but has never produced and has not made a single public statement on the matter. This thread is to organize a sitout protest blocking the MSNL games on April 3rd.

I encourage party to come forward and publicly give a definitive date for the upcoming fix along with details of it. I would also ask them to acknowledge why it has taken so long to come forward and take these issues seriously. Maybe with enough correspondence the sitout on april 3rd could be cancelled.

Lets tentatively say April 3rd starting at 1pm EST. As that is right before peak time I believe.

I strongly encourage players to join in this and help.

So far we have:

Kanu
Jspill
Jeanchris
amurophil
Lessu
Wodka
Lima
harangutang
10k-for clay
And me

With a few more we could make a real impact to the games, one that will force them to take these issues serious.

Thanks all

Background discussion of the issue in the zoo thread (cross link in case Party reads this thread and never read the other):

Request for Party to consult with players to improve the mid and high stakes games

Dear VIP support,

As you may be aware, an organised sitout protest is set to take place on PartyPoker on April 3rd.

http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/56...-scum-1185077/

As detailed in several threads on the 2+2 forums, many regular players at the stakes of 400NL and up are very concerned with the recent deterioration of the number of games and the reduced level of fun being offered to recreational players.

A number of issues and possible solutions have been raised but Party has yet to take action or make a public statement. Striking and blocking all tables, as was done in the past when Party attempted to implement a $5 rake cap, has been decided as an unfortunate necessity.

The main issues have been discussed and can be commented on by Party_Rep here, in order to prevent protest action:

http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/28...games-1169881/

On the latest 2+2 Pokercast, noted high stakes reg Alex 'Kanu' Millar talks about these issues, specifically calling PartyPoker a 'waste of time' and 'not a nice environment', saying that he has 'given up trying to play' there and is 'surprised it's taken so long for sites to do something', which only industry leader PokerStars has done so far (e.g. temp-banning repeat sit-out offenders, and forcibly removing them from tables in some cases). Partypoker 'neglects' the recreational player experience.

These public comments are a testament to how this problem is becoming more and more well-known in the poker community.

On behalf of the 2+2 community, which comprises many high-volume VIP players, I would like to ask that you talk with forum members to discuss simple software updates that would alleviate table-blocking issues, and make PartyPoker a much more pleasant environment for recreational players, as it has been in previous years.

Regards

I would also like to add, that i believe starting immediately, even while still developing the 'fix' they should be at a minimum warning repeat table blockers/sitouters. They should have someone watching the tables with the ability to remove players etc.

Anyone else find it ironic that because of an issue with players sitting out the protest is to sit out?

Re: Organized Party Poker sitout, in protest of sitout scum.

it sounds funny at first but its just a sneak peak into the future if nothing is done all tables will be full of sitouters at any time.

Not sure if you need to stop the inactivity disconnect popup, if all of the table is also sat out, i.e. does party remove you from the table or not? But if so here it is:

PHP Code:
Loop 
{
WinWaitPartyPoker.comPoker Lobby Good luck XXXX,
IfWinNotActivePartyPoker.comPoker Lobby Good luck XXXX
WinActivatePartyPoker.comPoker Lobby Good luck XXXX
Sleep100
WinWait
PartyPoker.comPoker Lobby Good luck XXXX
IfWinNotActivePartyPoker.comPoker Lobby Good luck XXXX
WinActivatePartyPoker.comPoker Lobby Good luck XXXX
MouseClickleft,  14,  97
Sleep
100
MouseClick
left,  14,  97
Sleep
100
MouseClick
left,  14,  97
MouseClick
left,  14,  97
Sleep
100
Sleep
520000

You just copy and paste that into a notepad file, and replace XXXX with your original account name (one that is shown at top of party lobby in 'Good luck XXXX')

Then save as -> all types -> add .ahk extension

Download and install autohotkey, free program for running scripts. Run autohotkey, and the script (double click the file)

It should move your mouse cursor to click the top left menu button client, every 10 mins or so, timed to stop the disconnection each time

can PM me if any problems, e.g. if need to adjust the co-ordinates
