Besides, why do you care if there's a new group of tables being introduced. It's not like you guys are going to have to program it yourselves, right? It won't bother me. I'll use the filters to block those tables out.
Why would they mess with that? Well, obviously FT has had enough complaints about the short stackers that they feel the need to do something. That's why.
If your hoping for major change from ftp, i doubt that is going to happen. They just want to create a balance. I like the idea of a 8 hour or something extreme recycle periods. I think people can buyin for whatever, but the going south and coming back is what people should have an issue with. That way short doubles and stays, which good % fish shorts do.

The only people I can think of who might be upset by this are short stackers who want to play against full stackers.
But no short stacker seems to be saying that their game is taking pots off full stackers, so that can't be it.
I just can't figure out who suffers here.
But your elminating a type of table completely. Why would you do that? That is a major change to change the most popular table at your site. If you want a new type of type of table im sure ftp will consider and people can choose if they want to play it.

I am not a shortstacker(unless playing mtt's then we are all!). I don't mind playing against them. Maybe at like 1/2 + they have become somewhat of an issue because they are winning (however players are allowed to win at poker) but generally at the low limits , especially 6max, SS's are often just free money. However the issue is based on your ability to make money more than anything.
It is lol because a player shouldn't have to see an empty seat and not be able to take because there are too many full stacks, too many SS's too many midstacks. I assume if your putting a limit on shorts, the limit would also apply to full stacks right? you can't just pick on one buyin. If you did, people who wouldn't normally SS would because it implies it is better to short since there are only a limited number of short seats.
