Based on what? There definitely seems to be a new problem but it only affects some of the players.

+1, you are not getting an answer here so please dont fill the forum with the same request over and over...

I have no problems and nobody reported problems on large local forums that I follow. But Party should do something about it anyway of course!

Why shouldn't seat selection be allowed? It's not like you can do it instantly either, you have to sit out first, then wait for the current hand to be completed before you can get up and change seats. It would be pretty easy for Party to put a stop to it (e.g. just make a 5 minute wait time for reseating at the same table), but changing seats is allowed in any poker game I've ever heard of, not sure why Party should be different.

seat selection != seat switching

Since you can't seat select until you sit down, it's effectively the same thing.

I am not an affiliate manager - contact your affiliate team or the affiliate in question - this is not an issue for this thread
I responded to your last post - which was rather rude - and informed you of the same. Please direct your query to a relevant team member

Sorry - I have no details regarding this bonus
Can you contact Customer service who can likely share the details however can you not view the T&Cs in My bonus section?

We have been looking into the issue - it certainly does not effect all players and for most a clean installation resolves the issue in full
I have not ignored the issue - and as per my last post regarding the same I asked users to provide further details via PM as per our tech team request
This will help pin point the exact issue and allow the relevant team to look into the problem in more detail as we are unable to recreate this in the office

HI for what is worth have the same issue with table freezing. It started with me switching to Windows 10 so maybe it is operating system related? However I just recently started playing on Party too so it is a clean instalation. Collette just let me know if you need someone to help with fixing it I will PM you if it is possible so maybe you could ask the technical team what details do they neet to fix it

anyone have issues logging in atm?

I don't know what this means - we are talking about players leaving a table then re-joining to get what they think is a better seat. It's not that common,yet anyway, but it's toally scummy and awful for the game. I mean, do you really want donators to see regs regularly battle to sit on their left by leaving and re-sitting, on top of all the scummy sitting out etc that already happens? It should be cut out straight away - either with a minimum time interval or having to sit at the same seat.

I really don't want to be disadvantaged any more against scumbags just because I don't do this.

lol?
people always talk about how they want to be online poker more like live poker with global waitlist and stuff. switching seats is THE most common thing in live poker cash games (1st seat change, 2nd seat change, etc).

lol?

Honestly, if you can't see why this is bad for the game then there is no point in having a debate.

Also, I've had an odd pop-up appear today a few times saying that I can't sit at a seat as it's reserved, even though I've been at the same tables for ages and havn't been trying to join a table. I can close the box and nothing bad happens.

No freezes for two days though. Jay for that.

Yes you can. Just don't use the seat me buttons but instead open individual tables.

I mean you can't see any player names until you've dealt a hand, so any seat selection before then is basically a guess. You can guess by stack size I guess, but that's it.

If you can't be bothered seat or table selecting that's up to you. It doesn't make people who choose to change seats scumbags. If you've got a maniac to your left and 2 solid regs to your right then you aren't making any money on that table, but feel free to take what you think is the moral high ground if you wish.

Also I don't really see how it's "terrible for the game" for some other reg to be sitting to the fish's left instead of me. Seems to me the result for the fish is the same.

The original point was that someone had joined a table but didn't have position to the fish. They would then leave and rejoin the same table. You could obv see from the stack sizes where the fish is and take a better position.

If you are talking about casual cash games, there are often multiple people with less than a full buyin, some are bigger fish than others.

Yes obviously this is the point and it's not about table selection or where you originally sit down. Obviously fish will notice seat switching sometimes, obviously it's bad for the game etc. At least to me, but it seems like some people don't see it that way and they regard people who don't do it as lazy.

I don't understand what point you are trying to make. If there are two regs and one whale with 188bb then it's easy to leave and re-join with position on that player.

If all regs do it then it doesn't mean more gets donated overall and it may even be less if it pisses of the whale. It just means more hassle and button clicking for regs with the same pool of players (minus the odd fish who gets pissed off and leaves). So why not cut it out.

The freezing issue might be related to third party software since I haven't used HM2 for 3 days and didn't experience freezes since.

Might be variance so anybody to confirm it would help.
