Sorry but im speechless, dont even know how to comment on above statement.

Its mind blowing

Did you just find 15-20 new players from a country with 7 million people and asked them to deposit and go live on the tables so you can test how they earn points or something?

We will have planned maintenance - Thursday 23rd - between 08:00- 09:00CET
During this time our poker offerings will be unavailable
Our team will ensure we have no scheduled tournaments during this period including our cash games and SNG/SNG HERO games

Thanks , Colette

All have been checked and flagged via our Risk teams We have run the relevant process tests etc. and we will continue to monitor each account

We hope this resolves your concerns and I can assure you our team are working around the clock to find players using 3rd party tools etc and take the relevant action when necessary

We appreciate the support from the players in flagging the accounts identified in this case and would urge players to continue to flag anything suspicious with us at the earliest opportunity

Kind regards,

Colette
This is hilarious!

So basically you admit you have outsourced house players put into your fair play ecological environment that are clearly connected to each other via your outsourcee.
Despite playing very similar style with identical betsizes they are totally human, independent and dont affect your regular customers in any way when joining each other at the same tables.
They obviously arent marked in any way thus your (less observant) regular customers have no idea they are not facing normal opponents without reading this thread.

I must say Im really happy for not being able to play at your site anymore

Jesus ****ing christ
Depending on the background of those "people" even if they are real it's as bad as if they are bots and you are ignoring them
Actually, given the lack of transparency it is worse, no matter what, because the fact that those people are even connected is highly relevant, and if nobody would ask about it we would have never even found out

Also I feel a bit for Colette, he/she isn't making those dumb decisions but has to defend them all the time. I hope our anger gets passed to the people in charge.

Also can you give us more background? What are they testing? Which partners are involved? Which affiliates?

Since creating an account on Party on 1st December 2016 I have played 1.3million hands, and raked $105,000 in that time. Party's inability to catch bots/people using HH converters, coupled with the ridiculous Hud changes and the sheer lack of promos for cash game players are all bad enough, but the above is just ****ing ludicrous. I am officially out.

I can't understand how an issue like that isn't handled by the PR department.

Colette: "Yeah they've become aware of the Serbian testers - should I let Ann in communications handle this?"

Party: "Nah just deny they're bots, be grand"

This is literally a company that got lucky to be in the market when it exploded and made too much money compared to competency. They literally have no ****ing idea how to do anything ethically or properly. Because of their market position they still have too much money than they know what to do with and thus can make so many idiotic decisions over the years and still be in business.

Or maybe this is a symptom of being public and their talking bobble head executives are just throwing arrows in the dark while hustling their bonus'. Just look at how great Pokerstars was until these publicly traded executive business ******s took over.

Looks like just another pump it up with fast talking/**** you decisions trying to squeak out a bigger bonus before they can retire or move on to the next company to **** everyone else over.

It is too bad too, I really liked playing there last year and promoting their previous position of building a good poker environment with fair games and loyalty promos. Even got people to sign up. Now I tell everyone to avoid it or be cheated by extreme botting/software

This reminds me of that time someone posted a screenshot itt of a party table full of players all with the screen names AI INFESTATION xx and asked for an explanation, which I don't think we ever got. I figured at the time it wouldn't actually be bots as no bot maker would be stupid enough to draw attention to themselves with screen names like that, so assumed it must be some unfortunately named undeclared testing programme. But, as we never got an answer, who knows wtf was going on.

Shady stuff.

I disagree - as stated we are testing the new loyalty program before launch
Would you prefer we launched without testing so you can all find problems to post about?
New products need to be tested in a real environment

Would you prefer a lengthy , over worded post or the truth?
It was bought up on the forum - we stated our position and offered an explanation

They are not BOTS
They are "real" people testing the software which is essential before launch

I see that when you click the tab for 2/5NL 6max in the lobby you get 2/5 AND 2/4 tables. Wil the 2/4 be phased out or why is there a waitlist only for the 2/5 tables?
