Wow I thought I was the only one nitty enough to be bothered by this so I didn't post about it. Yeah, I liked the way this used to work, but it changed a couple months or so ago. If you alt-tab or if another table pops up, then when you switch back to the table you were typing a note on, the cursor used to stay in it's original position so you could continue typing where you left off. But now the focus is off the note-box entirely and requires reaching back over to the mouse. It is a pretty minor thing, but it can be frustrating when trying to take notes when playing a lot of tables where they are constantly popping up.

Some things that should be improved and I am probably not the first one who posts this:

1. An option for bigger sliders and boxes and/or pre-select buttons.
That way people who are not so good at shootergames can play multitable also.
I used to play at least twice as many tables as I can at Pokerstars and I am not even that bad at shootergames.

2. NLO8 games (sit and goes).
For some weird reason Pokerstars don't have these except at low stakes turbo with 18 people.
These literally fill up 10 times as fast as the pot limit tourneys that are also available, so it is clear they are much more popular.
At the other network I used to play 4 of these -non turbo- tourneys all the time and I miss that a lot.

3. Accounts in euro's. Obviously if you have a few K bankroll you don't want the dollar to drop 10% or so.

I hope Pokerstars understands these kind of things can be important enough to join or leave a network.

Did anything happen to the to the HH-formats or the names of the table or something like that? Seems like a lot of AHK software is going bananas since the update.

The currency ISO code (eg. USD, EUR) was added to the window title of the table.

The colors used for tables I'm seated at and tables I'm on the waiting list for (red and pink) are too similar. You should use colors which are easier to tell apart, like red and blue. Making them bold could possibly help as well.

Or your could just give us the ability to change the colors ourselves.

i spent 3 hours to repair StarsReads AHK.

The filename of the saved Stars-HHs doesn't match the window-titles any more. i had to replace all "USD -" to "- USD" in the extracted window-titles.

Some questions then:

Why doesn't Pokerstars have the option to use bigger sliders and/or pre select buttons (u can preselect and slide from there if you wish)?
It would mean a lot of their customers could play a lot more games.
They would like that and Pokerstars would have more traffic.

Why doesn't Pokerstars have NLO8 s&g's while they can see in their own -turbo- rooms they are much much more popular than the pot limit games?
Again the customers would like that and Pokerstars would have more traffic.

Is Pokerstars flexible and fast enough?
If they implement suggestions from threads like these people will get more involved and more willing to share their ideas.
I for example have many, but not much confidence they will be taken very serious.
It would be great if Pokerstars proved me wrong.

Right now, all your competitors have other deficiencies that make it unfeasible for me to switch, but that won't be true forever.

Other than this issue, I do think you guys do a great job, and I know this is probably out of your control. But if you can, let people at Stars know that this is important to their high-volume players.

Mine's working fine.

Did you try closing and then reopening holdem manager and/or table manager?

will you guys immediately transfer your bankroll from dollar to euro, or will you wait for a better exchange-rate?
