- I also agree here. What kind of "punishment" is deserved, though?
It doesn't have to be anything crazy. I'd deal with it how you deal with other minor violations. The process for these people is generally a series of warnings followed by closing down the account pending a security review, then re-open it, and if substantial evidence continues that the player is not willing to play in a way that agrees with your Terms and Conditions, a ban (no money confiscated of course). In reality, timing down will decrease a ton simply if it's against the rules, and things very rarely will get past the "future violations will result in disciplinary action up to and including a ban from our site" phase of like the third warning or whatever. It is a pretty small subset of players who are timing down, but that means it's not going to be all that much extra work on the administrative end, and it disproportionately affects your highest-raking players.
People come to FTP to play poker, and the benefit to players is more than worth it.

Modifying the structures, though, is certainly a possibility. We're going to have some discussion soon about all the feedback and see what kinds of changes we can make. If any changes do happen here, it's unlikely they'll happen before mid-to-late April though, sorry.
5. Make it so that we can see who is registered in a HUSNG lobby without opening it?
- This is coming as a new widget. I'm not sure exactly when, but I know it's being worked on.
Very pleased with these two things and the "add a new table with someone checkbox. I really do think it's mutually beneficial to keep the rake in the superturbos lower and I understand why they're not going away completely.
