Doug, I think you guys should make a platinum level on your ironman levels. Something for the higher stakes player that are generating tons of rake. Make it a huge jump from the 200 points/day(iron) level. For example make them earn 1500-2000 ftp points/day for 24 days of the month.

Reward them generously..imo

I know this will take time but I think it will really be appreciated by the high stake players and will also generate more rake for Full Tilt Poker.

By doing this, you already earn 10-15 bonus medals per day, so you can easily double your monthly Iron medals. But yes, there are definitely diminishing returns once you go over 200 medals, and that part sucks.

Just tried playing a session on FT and had to stop after 10 minutes because the lobby is so inefficient.

There are so many empty tables between stakes its really hard to scroll between them. I didnt see an option to hide empty tables.

The new filters are really badly needed.

Really simple... every time I open/close a table why does the lobby have to pop up and get in the way of my other tables? I know where the lobby is, I'll click it when I need to. I don't need to see it 12 times when I'm trying to open up/close my tables.

Doug, I noticed the Sony Vaio laptop has been removed from the Full Tilt store. Why is this? Are you bringing it back or having another option for a laptop besides the Mac?

The below was posted in the News, Views, and Gossip thread. Many people had the same experience. Please explain.

"I received a solicitation from a new online poker site in the mail today. It was addressed to the name I have registered with fulltilt, not my actual name. Anyone else?"

Thank you.

I am frustrated that each time a table invitation pops up it overrides the bet I am making, forcing a mistake. Why can't Fulltilt address this problem for anyone who plays more then one table and fix it?

Thank you.

No one cares. Just answer these questions which you have avoided the whole time:

What for you is a reasonable amount of checks to request? Is that up to the customers to figure out or is that up to FTP to set guidelines?

Thats the whole point that you are missing. I know your responses here are tailored to try and make yourself look good and others bad, but can you just answer a question without stating how smart you are or how how other people are screwing everything up for you?

FTPDoug,

With the AP/UB scandal pointing back at Chief Norton. Can you check into the possibility of Full Tilt Poker:

1. Moving their servers off Kahnawake land
2. Stop paying the Kahnawake for the licensing
3. Attempt to be licensed by ANYONE else

After seeing this thread http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/sh...d.php?t=251958

Having anything to do with the Kahnawake is a liability.

Thank You

I'd like to address some of the issues/concerns that have been raised in this thread:

1. Full Tilt has never sold or given personal information to a third party unless explicity allowed (the one case I can think of was our PPA membership drive where users opted in and allowed us to pass along their details to the PPA).

2. Given that the information wasn't acquired in any official capacity, we're investigating how this may have happened. If it did come from us in any way, we take this as a very serious breach of security and will do whatever we can to ensure it doesn't happen again.

3. We take the security of everyone's personal information seriously. Only a select few people have access to our database (including the database team, some business analysts, and some marketing people). Our customer support can obviously access a player's details one player at a time, but it would take years to cull a big list. That said, it does look like something happened here and we're looking at every possibility.

4. As far as our password policy that MicroBob brought up: Our system has been set up to make it impossible for anyone, including senior management, employees, customer support, consultants or anyone else to access passwords. The feature simply doesn't exist. If you forget your password you have to request a new one. Customer support will never ask anyone for their password.

5. This doesn't pertain to the current situation since it looks like it was snail mail addresses, but some spammers actually grab screen names from the game itself and just spam ftpscreenname@yahoo/gmail/hotmail.com hoping it hits. I'd recommend never using your in game name as your email address.

Let me apologize to everyone that this happened to. We're actively trying to figure out what happened and how, and if we find any pertinent information I will post an update.

Doug

Doug,

Thank you for the above candor.

Since you were willing to go there, I have a more politically sensitive question that you may not be able to answer because of the politics.

The highest games on FT often still have players playing under multiple accounts. Several of us who play in these games regularly approached Howard about a few issues. Among the issues were allowing players to play under different names (of course these are only a hand full of pros), checking IP addresses in these games, and a general feeling that when there are one or two players we don't know in the games, without added security makes us uncomfortable. Howard's response was "then don't play in the games".

I plan on having a private discussion with him about this. However, there are several key points;
1. These games have millions of dollars moving through them. They are ripe for cheating. They help attract players to Fulltilt - people want to watch us. FT should want to protect them and take our concerns seriously.
2. In ALL games fulltilt should want the highest level of security. FT already had one public cheating scandal. Protecting the integrity of ALL games on the site is mandatory to protect it's billion dollar business. Yet, a cavalier attitude seems to be developing about security and therefore the integrity of the games.

What extra steps is FT doing to protect their business and the games?

Thank you.

Thanks for getting "Cash Pickup" option available to us.

Now if we could only pickup our cash within a reasonable time. Stars has been pumping them out typically within 24 hours. What seems reasonable for FTP compared with stars? 72 hours is clearly not acceptable.

lol really?

Plan better.

72 hours is def acceptable to the vast majority of players at FTP. If you find 72 hours unacceptable, then I guess you won't be able to use the option/play at FTP.

I doubt this is going to change.

I think bonus medals shud be paid
500 points 2 medals (normal)
1000 points 4 (3 currently)
1500 6 (5 atm)
2k and up is fine

it makes me stop playign at 500 points per day or play a massive 3k-5k point day.

please adjust

Thanks for this chance to voice my opinion
