Partypoker, when is the new software scheduled for release?
We should begin to roll out new stages at the beginning/mid August
Further improvements and changes will then be rolled out over the coming months
By the end of the year our project to provide improved software/lobby etc should be complete

One thing has changed in terms of support. They issied an immediate 48 hour template for a response but you're still ultimately ignored or wait 1-2 weeks.

Numerous people in fact have sent emails requesting account closures on your site and support has flat out IGNORED these requests and these players fontinue to lose money to cheaters you are unable or unwilling to stop/ban. (Albeit not a lot of money but moot point). Is this not in direct violation of the simplest liscence obligations from site to player? You people are not running a proper safe business no matter what you say in here

And to Colette, if you don't want to post here and only do because nobody else wants too don't. As a business you have an obligation to interact woth customers to grow your business, improve and quite frankly it seems like a lot of people here know whats going in regards to game integrity than your employees and yourselves which is f' up!
Please provide proof of the above claim of emails being ignored and I will follow up myself with the customer service management
You can provide usernames in the post or via PM

I will respond regularly to queries on either of the Official partypoker threads found under Internet or MTT community sections

Customer service is currently mid an improvement project with 30 new staff being trained and ongoing improvements in all areas are a top priority for our CS management teams

It is far far better than pre stars changes.

Guess 50-55% RB > 1-4% RB.

Then I googled another player from that table and found this:

It's 5/10 cashgame hand from Partypoker uploaded by bicas (not necessary Partypoker screenname) 5 days ago. Showing other opponents screennames.

Ofcourse I could just send these to partypoker support but I don't care because I don't play at Partypoker anymore because of this. So I just post these here.

Maybe partypoker security team should try google to detect converter users

But yeah:

Watch this space..

12 hours go by and Colette conpletely ignores your post. Nothing will change here. Game integrity is a disgrace.

I've heard from various sources that there are stables that get special benefits on Party. BRS does ring a bell.

Party should consider offering new games like 2-7 triple draw, FL Omaha high/low, 8game and others to get some of the Stars traffic in those games.

And a new software is really needed. It looks and feels like its 10 years old....

New software is really needed and it would be a shame if it takes another 6 months from now till the software is released

Hi Pads,

if you don't mind could you please ask if there is any plan to increase maximum stakes for HUPLO? I asked support and they said it's a decision made by the promotions team and they can't comment on it. Totally get if you want to run smaller PLO games, but it's capped at 100 plo and NLH is available up to 2.5k nlh. Bit of a big difference, no?

Secondly, I asked in chat if they could close casino for me and make it take at least 24 hours or whatever to re-open. I was advised that this could be done via e-mail (as doing in the my account section is instant on re-opens). I did that, waited a day and tested it out, but was able to snap re-open as I thought may be the case. This defeats the purpose of casino exclusions.

I see you guys are catching a lot of flack, but at least you're out here in the trenches answering questions and trying to get something done,

Cheers.

Can confirm. I work for one. We offer various incentives pushing people beyond 50%.

very fair to the honest pp player who plays by the sites rules... PP is shady af! Affiliates and staking companies should all be cut off, it is disgusting.

Don't give it a rest!
They are obviously allowing cheating to happen on many levels: bots playing for years, some people using software that is supposedly not allowed and best of all: their poker ambasador owns a stable. We are supposed to believe he is not ghosting his players or they are not sharing hand histories and hole cards if they come really deep in a big tourney? To make matters worse, there are stables that get preferencial treatment with loyalty points and manipulate/stop the possible overlays.

If you want more reasons not to play here I'll give you more: Party is the only site where I literally lost around 50 HU SNG's in my 4 years playing there due to disconnections on "my end" while every ***** time everything was perfect with my internet. Only once have I gotten a refund in form of a ticket, and that one time I threatened them with gambling commission.
They were for years the only big company with withdrawal fees (another money grab, transferring operational costs to players).
Also, they always used cheap tricks: while clearing one bonus they give you the lower value one, hoping you will switch and lose value, they put in opt-in buttons so people miss out on promotions etc etc
I only played there as I played fixed limit and had a very limited choice of sites.
I see they are luring in some regs with opposite of Stars strategy but they will just rake money in reg wars and then die out when fish are exterminated. Don't fall for that trap, there are better and certainly fairer sites, just look actively around you.

just know that no site wants winning players! Then you realize why all this stuff is going on everywhere to cut your profits. Time to quit online pokerz.

Affiliate deals are actually good for poker. The more we receive the more we give back. It allows more players to stay in the game. As well it extracts more money from the site and gives back to the players.

We have a lot of guys earning a fair clip extra because they wanted to maximize their earnings.

Ya that is why sites have no money to actually offer nice promos to the casual players or put money into marketing campaigns like tv ads to aquire new players or to invest money into improving their software. You guys are bad for online poker.
Also, the rake on PP or other sites would probably be lower without affiliates involved.

Hate to sound like a shill as I don't work for Party lol.

As a Canadian, PP is offering a great promo right now for free tickets with $2200 dollar tickets for a live event in Montreal. Missions are great for casual players.

PP is in a perfect spot to hit the marketing hard and upgrade their software to capture the stars backlash. They need to open the war chest and splurge.

ya its pretty simple what online poker wants atm is way less rake taken in the tables and no rakeback at all .

1)reduces big volume based play and increases quality of play(regs play less tables equals better reg to rec ratio)

2)reduces variance therefore the experience of all players winners and losers
(just imagine how the experience of a big loser/gambler facing a downswing that deposits occasionally and likes blowing some hundo$ with the current rake )
etc etc

http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/29...ystem-1267710/

but who cares for the long run ??? most are here for the short run(SITES +REGS) and not cause they love the game

It's extra money being taken out of the poker economy and given to a third party (an affiliate) that doesn't really provide anything of value. It's also something most recs don't or can't take advantage of.

The model should be lower effective rake for all, shiny prizes for recs/net depositors.
Five reasons to not play on Party Poker Quote
07-12-2017 , 09:49 AM
yeah its money taken out of net depositors(that usually don't take advantage of those affiliates) accounts to an account that didn't even play. thats complete bull**** and nonsense .

and again that is the exact definition about what i said that noone cares about the long term sustainability and fun of the game as long as they can make good short term profit for a few months and come here after 1-2 years and moan why sites **** them up / not enough recs on the games /poker is dead cuz I cant win etc etc


sry for the derail just cant help myself reading this bull****. they also feel proud. lmao
