it was just thrown out there in another thread by another reg to boycott the site for a day or two...maybe this will wake acr up and just maybe they will try and put some money back into their systems to fix it...
if boycotting the site for just a day or two sounds like a valid idea to the regs lets talk about it I'm here and choose a day to do it...if they lose tens of thousands of rake in a day or two and actually see what could happen if we all leave, maybe they will actually fix it

Sooooo Boycott??????? when?

Agree, but who would do it?

This is a network that pulled the cash cow known as jackpot poker for a month leaving only $2 games up and you think a boycott will phase them?

These talks of boycotts are silly with hundreds of people trying to orchestrate one over the years and for all of them to fail.

If traffic falls enough and they have to hand out rebates because of their unstable software crashing then maybe they will try harder but for now it's just a waiting game.

As I type this I clicked the jackpot tab and all I see is the little spinning circle so I assume they must be down again.

Been considering starting a similar thread the last few days but didn't have the balls to make it, I'm on board for a sit-out

What is happening with the Jackpots is complete negligence. We knew weeks (months?) ago that they were not a stable offering but not only did WPN keep them available, they introduced new stakes. This is a slap in the face to loyal customers

As someone with limited options, I want WPN to thrive as much as anyone, but at some point they have to realize that removing the current state of Jackpots is a better long-term solution than offering a product that costs their loyal customers significant sums of money. How many customers have said "**** it" and sworn off the site during this period as a result of the glitches?

Any thoughts on a date for the boycott?

You may convince a person or two to boycott, but serious grinders want to make money. They won't stop for a couple of days just because someone is being whiney in these forums.

Also if I were ACR, I would look into your account to see what kind of money you're bringing into them and weigh the option of just completely banning you for even trying to stir this up.

First off, you clearly are not a reg. If you were, you would understand that almost every reg would gladly skip one day of play if it meant something getting accomplished by acr.
Secondly acr couldn't look up someone's account since it's not linked to 2p2 account. Gtfo

Lol and they won't ban you because they want $. You can literally say or do whatever you want. It's the Wild West. There aren't any rules on this site. They aren't enforced.

Do you even understand what you just said here? You say the serious grinders want to make money but the problem is that they CAN'T make money because of the current state of the software. For what its worth count me in for a boycott although my boycott started awhile ago.

What I cant wrap my head around is the fact that not only is the network hurting the players but themselves also. They should have more incentive to fix these issues than anyone. I wonder, is the resistance to fix all of the issues at the point of the ceo of wpn or higher up?

Ok guys you caught us out.

We love when servers crash, we love annoying the players. We want it to happen more often but didnt want to make it obvious!!

Do you all feel better now?

Nobody once accused you guys of liking when this happens...not once, not ever
However how much money/time/manpower is being invested to solve the issues?? Clearly not enough if other sites don't have the issues you guys have. Their software/servers are clearly better and work better. Something needs to be done and after years of nothing improving, it is super evident that nothing is being done to fix it. Or not nearly enough is being done

I imagine you werent playing on WPN over a year ago.

When you after years of nothing improving tells me that.

Come on man...seriously are you trying to justify the site improving over the years?? Are the endless amounts of complaints from hundreds of people that have been playing for years not enough proof? What else do you want?
I've been playing online long enough to know that other sites don't have the issues like acr does. And back during stars and ft days when online poker was in inphancy stages, the issues that are happening today didn't happen. So after years of technology improving why hasn't acr been able to fix its issues?? You can't honestly sit behind your desk and justify things.

That's right go and attack the CUSTOMERS of your network. Tell you what, if you really want to show everyone wpn cares pick any issue, go talk to the people who are in charge of fixing these issues, get a deadline from them when it will be fixed and them come back to us with the date. If you can show everyone that the network is committed to fixing just ONE issue by ONE deadline maybe everyone will cut wpn some slack.

I am no justifying anything. I hate it as much as you guys. I cant tell you why they happen sometimes. I am just telling you that roughly 2 years ago i was up until 2am everyday cancelling and suspending as it was a daily thing.

The truth is, poker players will be poker players. Always looking for something to complain about. I to was/am the same. Im not saying you dont have reason.. What i guess im trying to say is.. We work everyday on trying to fix any and every issue. I know other sites do have many issues and i also know that on Sunday stars was having issues as i got lagged out of a hand which i had 2nd nuts. I didnt email them or anything and they obviously deal with these issues much better than anyone.

I am not attacking customers but you have to think about it outside the box a little.

Do you really think we are not trying to fix these issues? Just happy that they happen every so often.

I actually had to stop playing on a different network to respond to this. What the hell does that mean when you say be happy they happen every so often? Does that mean that just because problems don't happen everyday everyone should just except it? That's like saying you went to a restaurant 10 times but the meal was bad only three times so you might as well keep going back. Your network has essentially accepted that fact that providing sub par service is acceptable, you don't strive to get better you just strive not to get worse, big difference.

And why should anyone have to think outside the box? The fact of the matter is that the games are unplayable far to often period. Nobody cares why that is, just that it is and they want changes.

I suggest you communicate to your ceo that there needs to be a far better commitment to improving service and set some deadlines.

I think you completely missed the point .. infact you did.

We are not happy at all ... we feel the pain everytime something happens.

You guys come here and complain about this but the fact of the matter is .. we try to fix it. We dont plan on this happening. We all care obviously.

Do not think we just accept and move on with our lives because that is not the case.

So you mean that one time stars had an issue? Yeah every site has its issues however they have them so much less frequently that it is laughable. Yeah we as poker players are complaining but our complaints are justified. We also understand that you are not able to provide us answers but someone may be able to but no one ever does. Every deadline that you guys set is never met. And you guys at acr expect us to just be grateful and take it. Clearly it is getting to the point where we are tired of just taking getting **** shoveled on us.

Do not think we just accept and move on with our lives because that is not the case.[/QUOTE]

Yes. This is exactly what we think. Until we are proven otherwise our views will not change.

As i said.. think outside the poker players box!

Its insane that you think this. Every time its a different problem or the cause.

So now you know that we do care. We do try and fix it and we hate it just as much or more than you guys.

How many different reasons can there be for a site to crash?? Considering it crashes multiple times a week I'm going to guess that there are some recurring issues. Lmao

Many reasons!

Clearly we are getting no answers

Where is everyone on the actual boycott? Anytime next week?

You asked a question. I gave you an answer.

Its not always just a faulty cable that i promise you.

Outdated servers..cheap equipment..poor techs
Anyway you slice it, money needs to be put back into the company.

Thats the way you sliced it.. I am not going to lie and say i understand anything tech wise.

I am just making my point. We do care and we are always trying to fix it!!
