Is there any news on the full face cards and the mouse wheel to in- and decrease blinds function that you scrapped? Please bring those back.

888rep,

Its not a prime time now, but for a moment there are at least 9 scripters. As example on the screenshot u can see that 9 players are monitoring this table. If u dont know: seat scripts are working only at opened/monitoring tables.

There is no other sense why 2/6 table has 9 viewers.

Today i mentioned because of the hand of the day promo is only on Snap tables, i just had a hand and i looked at the stats, i had very bad luck yesterday 3 times set over set and so on but not only that, there are players i dont know what they play normally, but propably nl20-nl50 and now they practise lose aggresive play and i wonder, why my redline sucks the last 2 days.
Rake is superhigh at NL10 snap,its 6% but before the promo there were weak tight regs and some fishes, the last 2 days it was so aggro, dont know how it will change, but if there are also bots now at snap (thay easily can use stats knowing to 3-bet the right persons and knowing to open SB and so on) then i think i cant beat this game anymore.

Again, i dont like your change to 6% at NL10, its like 888 took all my money i won and i have to play thousands of freerolls i normally wouldnt to get something.
Here is a hand, i hadnt players like this before the promo, look at the 3-bet values.

If this dont change i cant play anymore, i had a small winrate but the last two days i lost 10 stacks, unlucky and then all this aggrofishes went allin the hole time and now its not 7 bb /100 rake but 11.

This guy tilted me that much today, that i instapotted the river, he 3-bet 20% omg.

Your new promo will propably be even less Rakeback and with all the bots the games arent that soft anymore, many will chose to play at other sites, also you dont benefit massgrinders, best is to play 100 hands nl2 per day and play the freerolls, you give the money to the spinners instead of making promos for people playing regular, all the time 10k people and i see it that they dont play all day because in the hand of day promo there are only 1500 people and the 2k is running 3 times a day, so milions of players that dont play at all get the money you offer each day and yes i managed to win something like over 120 dollars in 3 month but i raked 1500 and i have to play theese games and it cost time.

And lately i mentioned you dont offer anymore 10 dollars for 900 points, also i didnt played this much to reach silver but your 1% more rake is like 20% -RB, thank you.

Yep, to further this question: Are there any acute plans to try to target players that are disappointed by certain other sites and get them to play on 888 and become loyal customers?

There will be no problem to exchange points for cash for the same value after the change.
