Hi 888 Rep

Started playing a bit of snap poker lately and the traffic is really low, a maximum of 50 players in the entire world. There's me, bob from Timbuktu and Joey from some place left of the tallest igloo in Antarctica.

I would suggest to boost traffic for Snap Poker you should have a $20 freeroll 'snap poker week' where everyone on 888 is credited $20 for one week that can only be used for Snap. At the end of the week everything above $20 you get to keep.

This would encourage people to give snap a go and may even make them keep playing it.

Just a rough idea.

Apologies if this is in the wrong forum.


Cheers

Grant

Hey 888, some constructive criticism. The flaws I see are:

- Rake is absolutely terrible. It's hit so hard at the microstakes whose players get almost non-existent rakeback.
- The customer support takes too long to reply, it's always 72hours+. And the live chat is always unavailable even though it says available from xx - xx.

Can you please send me your poker user name and I will have this rechecked for you.

Seems websites are blocked but not clients.

Someone copied a email from stars support saying its business as usual for them at least so I doubt there would be a problem for 888.

Wouldn't be disastrous if Russia players couldn't play. Traffic is already declining.

traffic is more than declining. it's fallen off a cliff. 888 needs to get off their ass and do their ONLY job necessary to keep printing themselves $

No, it's business as usual as far as that's concerned.

there was one random one i tried (cant even remember name atm, also just smoke blunt tho, might remember later) that works with 888 but it was a massive piece of **** so it wasnt +eV to use

tblninja support has told me directly they have plans to support 888 in the future but no date set for release

i suspect demand from us via email to their support would be the best way to change that

actually I just got TableDroid to work by changing back standard themes, but mouse scroll seems to be bugging, so yeah, pretty much useless.

Party have just introduced a sit out one sit out all feature in their software for ring games.

Could you send it over to the team 888 rep that something similar would benefit your room and protect the ecology on 888 madsively? Thanks.

Party do a lot of stuff really badly, infact most of it is terrible which is why I played three sessions there over the last couple of months and can't bear to open up the lobby again as it's such a tilting mess, but this is one of the things they have gotten exactly spot on.

such a feature would be a ludicrous over adjustment

i have to sit out because someone else is sitting out?

you think this will make games more enjoyable for recreational players?

worst idea i've ever heard ainec

you and party need to get comfortable with the neverending fact that poker has always been and will always be a game where the weak are hunted

it is embedded in the fabric of the game itself

to ignore this would be to foolishly misunderstand the objective of the game from the start

these sites are not making these adjustments to defend the game

they are making these adjustments in AN ATTEMPT to protect their revenue source (you)

the game is dying, and dying fast

these piss poor attempts to extend the life support are pathetic and an embarrassment to the game itself

Perhaps you should understand what the feature is, before you go off on a rant.
