Default Re: Hi, WSEX GM here, looking forward to being part of this board.

Just a few little things I noticed when I was playing on WPEX (haven't played poker anywhere at all for a while, so this may already be changed):

-The chat dialog, when you try to scroll upward and read earlier stuff, automatically goes to the bottom every time something happens on the table and it updates. This is annoying and makes it almost impossible to read through earlier hands and whatnot. Other sites' chat doesn't do this.

-Pot-limit Omaha would be nice, since right now there is just limit Omaha Hi/Lo. Both PLO and PLO8 would be nice to have.

-The action buttons, e.g. bet/raise/etc. could stand to be a little bigger/stand out better/whatever.

-Transferring money into the gaming server or whatever it's called from the poker server sometimes can take a long time and be a pain in the rear. I play a fair amount of blackjack and other games and the time lag to transfer money was a real annoyance. If there is some way to make this transfer faster or, ideally, unnecessary then that would increase participation in your casino business.

A lot of little stuff I guess. Nothing big but there are definitely some annoyances with the software. You already know the big stuff, well, the stuff most of 2+2 wants. I do think, though, that if you make too many changes that encourage WPEX to be filled with 8-tabling 2+2ers this will make the games bad (casual players will rarely win). I'm not a pro but I'm not really a casual player either. I like a good gamble as much as the next guy ... and if I see WPEX filled with multi-tabling TAGs then I will take my action elsewhere, rake or not. I really think I speak for a lot of casual players when I say that.

In general I guess what I am trying to say is that different changes will tend to attract different clientele ... evaluate these changes with this in mind.
