Have been away from BUP for a couple of months, and juat started back playing again about two weeks ago. I use Firefox as my browser and am finding that I'm having some software issues.
1) This first problem is one I've had since I started playing on BUP back in August but it seems to have gotten worse since I've been away. When I first join a game or tourney, often the table will come up in the popup window so hugely oversized that only about 1/4 of it is showing. Closing the table & re-joining always used to fix it, but now sometimes it takes two or three re-joins before the table is the same size as the window.
2) Thanks for making it so we can resize the table window in Firefox, to make it smaller. However, it doesn't work every time. Often when I make the window smaller, the table doesn't resize, and I can only see part of it, so have to close the window & re-join. This may be related somehow to Issue 1.
3) Often during play, I will go to type in the Chat and find out that I can't. Sometimes it takes closing the table & re-joining several times before it gets fixed. Plus I can't seem to chat until AFTER I pay my blinds, so I have to wait til then to see if I can actually chat or not. If not, I have to close the window and re-join the game again. This gets old really quick, and I'm sure it disrupts the game for the other players, and I can't even tell them why I keep joining and leaving so quickly.
4) Several times I've had my bet controls totally freeze up, so I'm unable to bet, fold or check, and also can't chat. Again, it's close the table window and re-join the game, and then apologize to the table (assuming I can actually chat when I re-join the game, which sometimes I haven't been able to do).
5) I had hoped the software would get faster as time went on, but I see that it hasn't. It's bad enough that the games play so slowly because of watching ads, and because of that the long amount of time players have to take action, but clicking the buttons to Check or Fold seem to have a few seconds lag before they register, and sometimes I have to click them twice because the first click doesn't always take. Sorry, but BUP games are only slightly faster than watching paint dry. Sometimes the slow pace is kinda tranquilizing and zen, but more often than not to me it's just annoying as hell
