This is true but in years past I don't think Mother's Day created an overlay like that is this event.

When is Ignition going to start doing DFS?

Anyone else just get DC'ed? Every table I was on DC'ed me, then they all closed suddenly. Had the nut flush in an 80BB pot at 200nl obviously. Now I can't get rejoin the tournament I was in.

Edit: Finally got back into the tournament after logging out and restarting the client. Didn't have a single DC issue until the recent updates, now I get disconnected at least once per hour. So 4-5 times per day. It's pretty ridiculous and tilting, especially since it's so hard to get back on the tables with the new lobby setup. I wish Ignition liked money

Has Ignition even acknowledged the disconnection issues yet? So many have complained on this forum, they must be getting a lot of complaints from the playerbase.

I usually get disconnected about once per hour, sometimes I am booted from the table, sometimes not. Today I was disconnected while four-tabling and on three of them I was booted and had to resit with 100 bbs, and on the fourth I kept my seat and stack.

I feel like the better I get at zone the worse I get at poker overall

IMO Zone just makes you lazy. That's why I stopped playing Zone.

Every session for about 3 weeks I have had at least 1 DQ on all 4 tables at the same time.

re: DCs

happened to me several times and if im in the middle of a hand, i'm always brought back into it without being folded; if im not in the hand and it boots me from the table, i can insta-rejoin. rly not worth complaining about imo, it's a marked improvement from the DC situations before the update where it picked you up and froze you out for 5 mins

Looks like they fixed the SNG lobby

This is usually, but not always, the case. Sometimes when I'm DC'ed all of my tables close, whether I'm in a hand or not.

seems to be the case

good for you that you've always been brought back when in middle of hand. Same had been my experience til Friday when I got booted out on river and didn't get brought back in time. Looked up the hand and the guy had A-high (which I beat) and jammed when I check'd cause of timing out while DC'd. Over $300 in that pot. People here are getting multiple DC a night and you're telling them it's not worth complaining about bc it's allegedly less of a nightmare than previous DC's? wtf is that a level?

smh. They didn't put me in a coma this time. They just punched me in the face a few times. Guess there's no reason to report it.

^lmao... exactly

take your bad beat stories over to BBV, bunch of bawling children itt

ooh domestic violence references now itt, so let's expand a bit on this hyperbole. if your boyfriend is so abusive, why do you keep going back to him? nobody wants to be the shoulder you perpetually cry on if, at the end of the day, you're just gonna suck it up and go running back to him to get beat on some more.

their software sucks and it costs money to do server upgrades/maintenance- you should know by now that ignition isn't into forking out extra dough for the sake of a regular player's grinding experience, no matter how much you cry on 2+2. the crappy software and all its buggery is literally part of their business model- they aren't going to be upset if you withdraw your bankroll and leave, and probably nobody else will be either.

like sry to come off callously but come on- while still very imperfect, the disconnect situation is inarguably light years ahead of where it was months ago.

I haven't played at the site since it switched to Ignition. I just check this thread from time to time.

What you typed there is literally what I was implying, without so many words, about you. You're in a dysfunctional relationship and because it's not the worst, or as bad as it was in the past, you are giving them a pass.

People have a right to voice their displeasure and should, right here in this thread, when the software isn't working properly.

except that i'm not the one looking for a shoulder to cry on, am i?

edit: you're def free to do whatever, and that includes moaning itt. knock yourself out if that's what you want. but if you'll look back at my posts about this, you'll see that really all i'm trying to do is help people understand more about how the site works and to adopt a different perspective that will cause less stress and make all the garbage easier to deal with. the disconnects, the ****ty software, the new lobby, the increased rake, etc, it's all just the cost of doing business at a site that is softer than average. like anything else in life, it's a two-way street.

lots of you have a fundamental disconnect with reality here. the software sucks BY DESIGN as a deterrent for regs/grinders. no sync breaks in mtts, anonymous games, 4 table max in cash, cant rail or datamine games for more than a couple orbits, minimal site maintenance, etc. so when a bunch of grinders ***** and complain about things on 2+2, you think that's gonna give them a reason to make positive changes to help you? LOL. and if they did make positive changes to be more grinder-friendly, that would only further reduce the quality of the games as more grinders flood into the site, which is something nobody wants anyway.

their stance on these issues is very clear- if you dont like it you can deal with it or you can leave for greener pastures.

One of the best poker decisions I've ever made and it took me about 8 months too long.

more power to u bro, do whats best for yourself. always keep expectations realistic in order to minimize pain tho

for me personally, dealing with random disconnects is a worthy trade-off compared to 30 hands per hour in a live game or a fractional winrate and higher variance on a different site.

I don't need them to be grinder friendly to make money. I just need the software to function properly. I'm sure recs would like that as well.

I am intrigued by your theory that they keep software they know regularly disconnects as it might lead some to play casino games instead of waiting to get back on the tables.

except the recs are all basically stuck there regardless of connection issues because they're gambling addicts, lol

bovada is one of the only places they can place sports bets in the comfort of their own home- the payouts are always reliable so that's a really strong reason for them to keep an ignition account active to do their pokering on. not to mention the games have more action and are more fun to play in than their other option, ACR.

if there's one thing you can guarantee the site does, it's a bunch of cost/benefit analysis and analytics wrt site traffic. as stated before, the DC issue used to be way worse than it is now and if they're not taking steps to make it better, that's because they've decided it isn't worth the time/effort/money. i know that moaning is cathartic and believe me i do plenty of it, but i dont expect it to affect any real positive change and nobody else should either.

Putting aside my tendency to eye roll when people talk about "rights" in such a trivial context, after reading this thread for over a year, I have never quite understood people who seem to believe its use is to provide Bovada/Ignition feedback (I'm not saying you believe this, you just got me thinking about it). I see so many posts that basically say "you should do xyz" as if there is someone reading the thread who both 1) gives a crap what they want and 2) can actually make it happen.

There are some people who complain to the actual customer support and post a report of their interactions here. That is useful.

But I suspect that there is a significant portion of people who ***** on here and never actually direct their complaint to the one place it might do some good. Bitching on 2+2 does serve a limited purpose as a warning to people who are considering switching to Ignition or who have been away for a while. But that function is served by the first several posts on a particular topic. After that point there are diminishing returns because it buries other useful content.

If I'm remembering correctly it used to serve that purpose as I believe there used to even be a rep here. Nowadays I'd be shocked if any Bodog brand employees gave any mind to this thread at all.
