REMOVE the deadbeats from tournaments if they have not played a SINGLE hand after 30 minutes OR have not acknowledged taking their seat within 15 minutes. (ESPECIALLY in the VIP Freerolls)

time bank issues are covered earlier in the thread. However this request is a little different:

+ability for support to reset time banks.

sometimes stuff goes wrong or it's just fair to reset a time bank and the software doesn't permit it. for example, I was playing in a tournament and, without timing out or calling time, my time bank was zero. it was the beginning of the tournament - 10 hands in - I check thed hand history and I had not timed out.

1. I've got 10+ tables up (Overlapped/Stacked), its mine turn to act on like 5 tables and out of no where another one of my tables pops up in front of me and all it says is You've been moved to another table. Now I have to click that button and then minimize that table in order to get to the 5 tables that needed me to make a decision. I'd like to either see an option to turn table changes off or not have that table jump in front of the others I need to act on.

2. Again I've got 10+ tables up, an important decision on 1 table requires me to take an extra few seconds to decide, in the meantime I am timing out of my other tables. So this means, I have to bring up every table I'm on to make sure I'm not sitting out and getting blinded to death. I'd like there to be a notice either on the "find a player" window or the "registered in" window that shows if I'm sitting out on any tables; this way I could just refresh the Find a Player window and click on the table I'm sitting out on. Another idea would be to create an option to turn on/off automatic time bank; This option when ON would use timebank always instead of auto-folding your hand and when OFF could stay just as it is now.

Although I have some other minor issues, these two are of most importance to me so I'm gonna end on that note.
Scripts son. Use some scripts.

Why can I filter "out" the 50BB tables, but not filter to show only the 50BB min tables?

Oh and I know this is new, but how about some 50BB min fast tables? Just a thought.

Really starting to bug me, don't fold a hand when a player times out, check it and make the other player . If you insist on doing so get better software thats less laggy and resource intensive, and also don't let people play 24 tables. It's pretty silly to fold the hand, which seems like a big anti multitabler stance, while being the biggest multitabling site in online poker

No sometimes I arrive late. By blinding off I may get a smaller stack, but so be it. Not to mention, if someone has purchased a tournament entry, then its not stars right to pull them off the table if they do not show up.

For any game I play, if I fold my hand I can mouse over my avatar and PokerStars shows me my folded cards.

I want this same capability but for my opponents folded up cards in stud like games. Example: I'm on the button in a razz game and the first 3 players snap fold I have trouble remembering what their upcards were because they get mucked so quickly. This kills the ability to multitable these games (even as few as 2 or 3 tables) unless you want to give up a huge edge.

That and 50BB minimum buyin tables at microstakes.

I wanna be able to see a players notes when I put my cursor over their avatar. Its a pain to rightclick---> notes while multitabling.

Id also like some kind of timer like ftp has to show how long you have until u start ur timbank. Its a total pain in the ass when you have already used up ur timebank and you have the nuts and time out and are autofolded becuz your not aware how much time is left to act.

This is a great idea, ftp already does this.

Also some people think it's a waste of time to play the first hour in deepstacked tournaments and actively choose to start late as part of their strategy. Their choice.

1. Please give us an option to show stack sizes of players who are sitting out without having to hover over them. When playing DoNs it's sometimes very important to know the stack sizes of people who are sitting out to know who's gonna be blinded out first. Now it says 'name / sitting out' when it would be much better (at least in DoNs) to have it say 'sitting out / $567'. Hovering over the name is an annoyance when other tables pop up. I don't wanna see the name of a player, I wanna see his stack size.

2. It surely has been mentioned before: new SnG tables popping up twice in front of all other tables is highly annoying when playing cascaded/stacked. Please let me turn it off.

Double clicking their avatar brings up their notes.

This is probably in here somewhere but make tournament announcements clickable links that open the lobby of the tourney.

I like this. If people want to sit out the first hour -- fine. Whatever. But you should at least have to acknowledge taking a seat first.

Last week I played in the supernova freeroll at a table 4-handed with everyone else sitting out -- usually as a no show. And the blinds are so small early on that the dead money is more or less irrelevant compared to the fact that you have to play 4-handed.

I still don't get why there are:
a) Fast tables
b) 50BB Min tables
c) PL tables
and
d) None of the above tables

Am I the only one who can see how those could be combined at will?

And how come I can deselect (a) and (b) and (d) but not (c)?

If I could just stop accidentally sitting at PL tables by being able to filter them without having to filter all non-fast tables, I would be a very happy enduser.

Just wanna get this idea back out in the open here. Any ETA on when this might be implemented? Within two months? Three? Six? Will it be this year? A rough estimate would be appreciated. This is the biggest feature addition I can think of that actually has a good chance of seeing the light of day.

I like the waiting on tables shortcut but if there was a way to unjoin waiting lists without opening up each table that would help. Or just an unjoin all waiting last.
