TBH I thought that was the norm for both sites, and helping Bwin was the last thing I wanted. I am really pissed about the freeze or 1x per month option on cashing in player points.
If you remember earlier this year, Collette was advising to players to save the player points, and sure enough they screwed the players with thier points store changes. Now Bwin instead of just lying, they go with a unannouced change that you can only cash in player points once in a 30 day period.

Thanks.... it appears I may be incorrect, went to post screen shot, and decided pull up a more tables... the same notes were also being shown on the other tables. So it looks as I was talking out my a@@.



Sorry

Thank you for your e-mail.

Please be advised that as from 12.10.2015, it is only possible to purchase 1 Poker item per calendar month. This decision has been made by the management and we are in the process to introduce a new loyalty scheme.



Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any further queries.

Kind regards,

Your bwin customer service team

This is so completely stupid, as they claim they are trying to protect rec. players, and only allowing a once a month pick of bonus claiming. This sounds again like a points grab, as you can read in the PS thread that they had over $1,5 mil. in FPP on thier liabilities and are planning to cut that liability through thier new changes by 25%.
So Bwin 1st doubles up on store prices, and locks out players to redeem, and have a new loyality scheme to be introduced at a later date.

Colleen is this what you mean by "ad hoc"
My name is Colette
No - this is not what was referred to as ad hoc bonuses in a previous post - this was regarding the random bonus drops - please do not misquote me.

If you are unhappy with the communication from bwin - please contact the Customer Service team via email or telephone.
https://www.bwin.com/en/account/contact

I have shared your comments with the bwin team. I have no further feedback to offer - sorry.

@Colette, can this be confirmed? Also, what about PartyPoker? Will they be having changes in their store? Even if its unofficial, we'd rather know now even if its rumours than not at all/when its too late. Thank you.
As I have stated many times- partypoker already changed its loyalty store as you are all well aware - for now there are no further planned changes I am aware of - planned changes on bwin will not affect the party loyalty store.

tks
The bonus is released in 10 x slabs - for the minimum $10 this is released as $1 per slab for 12 points earned.

The bonus is only available on the day of the relevant offer and can not be claimed as a later date.

Thanks

This has been reported incorrectly as per the players last post - this is not the case and bwin and party are functioning as expected after recent changes. The team have tested and confirmed.

Thanks

Colette, with all the talk about the scripts being back and all the hassle these cause party developers constantly having to try to block them, why does party not just outright make a verbal ban on them and anyone further using them have there accounts closed?

Hi

Some of the third party tools will still be able to run alongside the software however partypoker does not officially support their use and cannot guarantee that they will work.
With the next step of our ecology changes -these are not yet complete, as I explained previously these will take sometime to be implemented in full- we are confident we will see decreased issues as per above

Thanks

I understand that and am grateful for it, but what I don't understand is why if party is going through such efforts to stop those tools for like scripts from
Being effective-- then why not just outright ban them? Seems a lot clearier that way.

Bad example, but it's like a house robber for instance, where there is no law against breaking into houses and it is causing a problem in society, so the police suggest everyone go out and buy new locks and they add extra patrol units, but they never make a law against house robbery. Wouldn't that make you scratch your head a little?

you are under the false impression that any site has the ability to actually do that. makes sense to make s/w changes to limit their use and or make them obsolete, but you cant ban undetectable s/w. and yes it can be made undetectable quite easily as had been proven repeatedly with other 'banned' s/w's

I mean it's not that hard to sit down at any 2/4+ table with a single player and see the exact same group of seat scriptors instantly sit to your left on every single table. Playing an orbit will reveal the same common names like Noesis and other players who have been doing it for over a year.

YouSureSir is right, Party is pussyfooting around an issue that just about every player besides the ones scripting despise. If they won't come out and outright say that seating scripts are banned all the while making huge lobby and table changes to "level the playing field" then it leads me and many others to believe that the changes weren't actually made to level the playing field.

how can they not detect it? They can detect how long it takes from the time a person opens a table to the time they sit at a spot. They can detect how the sit in is made and if the clicking on the buttons is in the exact same spot or different. They can detect patterns that are not human and software on the computer. Lastly, they could even just hire one full time employee to watch the tables and it is pretty obvious who has a script by how they all pop onto a table instantly. Do you not think scripters would think twice about using one if they were told that if they got caught they would have there accounts closed? I don't think the minimized edge they can gain from using a script under the new system would create an edge valuable enough to risk it for most players. Bots? well, there edge might be greater so the risk is more worth it I suppose.

But if they are going to try and rid the site of negative things like scripts why not start by banning them, and follow it up by limiting there ability through software, and finish with people monitoring, warning and ultimately banning users.

Partyrep,

I know this has been asked already but with new developments happening at PS will PP and 888 merge the player pool together? Or is this never going to happen 100%. Cheers!

888 didn't buy party, GVC did. So no pools will ever be merged with 888.

You have green notes for players with nicknames Player3 and Player5, not for real nicknames.
You can open 10 tables and see 10 green marks on Player3 and Player5.

you can write novel after novel of the way you want things to be, it has nothing to do with realistic implementation. they already said they are going to make yet more changes since the scripters have already modified. but its not happening until post pokerfest.

Hi

1. I have no update on the store token- the promotional team who manage the store have provided no updates - I will again raise this with the relevant team though this looks unlikely in the near future

2. Yes - I have no timeline to confirm and will share any updates when possible - likely the first 1/4 of 2016 - this will be our own version and the project is currently with tech

Thanks

Colette
