PokerStars: Please fix your annoying-as-hell lobby window
 

[ QUOTE ]
This is a known "behavioural difference" caused by a recent software update. Management is aware of the reports of this, and the behaviour should go back to what it was in a future build (likely in November, but not guaranteed to be then).

The software team is aware of this change that was introduced with the revamped lobby in the most recent release, and of the volume of comments about it. While this wasn't deemed serious enough to warrant a special update before the next scheduled release, I'm told that it will probably be changed back to its old way of working in the next scheduled release.

It's been a month and 2-3 updates since this annoyance was introduced. Fix plz!

could you be more vague?

Re: PokerStars: Please fix your annoying-as-hell lobby window
 

Yes.

Re: PokerStars: Please fix your annoying-as-hell lobby window
 

You put up a good argument.

Re: PokerStars: Please fix your annoying-as-hell lobby window
 

I could not agree more. Every time that damn lobby does that thing it just drives me nuts. I don't understand how they can get away with it.

Re: PokerStars: Please fix your annoying-as-hell lobby window
 

Excellent.

Re: PokerStars: Please fix your annoying-as-hell lobby window

I don't believe it has been 2-3 updates since this was introduced. This was introduced with the client release that accompanied the server deployment of October 3rd. While there were a few interim client updates in the day or two after that, those were emergency fixes to correct the performance problems that were also introduced.

As I wrote and quote to you above, I believe (but am not certain) that the client release that accompanies the November server deployment will contain a modification to address this annoyance. The server deployment was this morning, so the client release is not very far behind.

Please note that if the client release doesn't contain the fix this time, it will be December at the earliest before it is fixed. Feature changes are never introduced mid-cycle -- the are discussed and approved for deployment in conjunction with server releases shortly after the first Wednesday of each month.

As this was first noted with the October monthly build, the very earliest you could have possibly expected a change is shortly after the November server deployment....today. The only time you should see a client release issued other than shortly after the first Wednesday of the month is in an emergency, when the change just cannot wait.

I just got the internal release notes for the upcoming client release, and now I'm certain -- the change you've been hoping for *will* be present. Only a matter of hours or a very few days now. (It will show up on PokerStars.NET first, and only if that release remains stable in general release will the same client be released to .COM users).
