How about for the double bonus? Will we need 175% or 150%?

I continue my statement that I haven't had a single problem with the upgrade, I think it is the best thing that a poker site has done in a long time, and that lowering the bonus points required for the week is very generous. This makes a great promotion even better.

I'm not going to lie, I hate the software upgrade, but I think the promotion is pretty sweet. I have to play a touch more than usual, but it's worth it, especially since I think I can make it all 8 weeks. In addition, it's an external source of motivation to get hands in, which for most serious players should be welcome.

Being a total ass like this just lowers the chances that any of the poker rooms will visit these forums.

Who's being an ass? Oh, you mean that offering honest criticism in an arguably funny tone should not be tolerated. Criticism of an irresponsible, poorly executed software upgrade that has had many problems ranging from silly things like button display problems to much more serious things like removing files from the computer that it has no business making changes to - all the while showing complete deniability to their customer base.

Expressing displeasure about this should not be condoned - is that what you're telling me?? Hey, as long as they offer 20% to $100, who cares, right??

You [censored] sheep amaze me. As the nice lady said to start this thread - enjoy!

I'm as critical as anyone about party's problems.
I'm certainly not a sheep (at least, I don't think I am).
But I don't think that all the "F You Party!!!" statements that we get in thread after thread after thread is really going to help anyone.

It's just players venting out of frustration and it doesn't really accomplish a whole lot.

I agree that it would be nice if they addressed a couple of the issues that I don't think they have responded to (such as the removing files and images and all that business that I don't really understand).

But instead of saying, "Hey you stupid pieces of s---....are you going to acknowledge your responsibility or not?"

I choose to say, "Ummm....perhaps you would care to address this issue. Some players here are reporting that their computer has gotten REALLY messed up because of your software upgrade. We would appreciate an explanation."

If you just want to insult Party then go with the first method.
If you actually want to increase the chances that Party will respond then go with the second.

I am as bothered as anybody by certain situations with Party. But I just don't see why bashing them in an internet-forum that we are TRYING to get them to participate in is going to actually make things better.

Why don't you guys hire somebody for 40k a year to answer the questions on this board? I'm sure you'd make it back in goodwill.

P.S. I'm available.

I'm interested in this as well, I'm guessing its 150%?

I have to say that this is an extremely nice gesture partypoker and I almost feel bad about some of the comments I've made previously. If you continue to treat VIPs this well, I'll be forced to move your site to #1 in my book.

BTW-can you do something about the lag and resource hogging on the new partypoker client?
