I hate that I cant "auto post big blind" when I join a non fast table and I click "sit out until blinds" I want my blind automatically posted when I get to the blind, I dont wanna have to wait until im playing before I can finally click the stupid "auto post" button.

k, thanks

You really HATE that? Seems like a pretty petty complaint.

Also a one time name change. Or perhaps a once a year name change.

I think the main problem with all the sites is that you shouldn't be allowed to use any aids (PokerTracker, PAHUD) whilst playing. It's OK to go over your PokerTracker AFTER the session. The casual player doesn't stand a chance and it's not a level playing field at all. You're not allowed to use computer aids in a live casino, why should you online? Never mind the UIGEA, 12-tabling computer savvy grinders using all the aids are the real threat to the future of online poker.

If you're going to allow PokerTracker whilst in play you should have a disclaimer when new players join that other players are using this and you should get one yourself. That would only be fair.

I agree 100 percent with all of this. I think many players are under the false impression that they should never lose - well, if recreational players get sheared each and every time they log in, they will not enjoy themselves and will ultimately not return (possibly bc of being busto, possibly bc they get no positive reinforcement). Truly recreational players are NOT given a good gamble online, and I think that is one of the reasons the games are (at best) not what they used to be and at worst, terrible.

If Stars says that players who have a certain status (Gold Star? Platinum? Supernova?) do recieve the max. bonus anyway (without a deposit), as long as they will play the amount needed to get the bonus if they had made the deposit

[/ QUOTE ]

Already available as award bonuses.

That what I think Sunday Warmup tourney is for. Stars needs to offer a guarantee on it too.

Piece of cake.

Find or create a blank background image of any color you want. Paint or any of a zillion programs will do it for you.

Then, in the PokerStars main lobby...

View->Themes

Click on Background. It will bring you to a file browser. Find and select your blank bakcground.

All done [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

Thank you, Lee Jones,

I have never used Paint, nor a file browser, but I guess I'll learn how;-) ...it doesn't sound like it could be too difficult to follow those two steps which you outlined.

This pop up on every table telling me that hand xxx is close then that hand xxx is about to be dealt and then again telling me who won the hand is really annoying. My tables are shrunk a little bit so I have to wait for go away before I can either see the board or my hole cards. I only play tournaments and you cant even win anything from this promotion, it should only display on cash tables or just the chat box would be enough.....rant over.

Why are you even trying to hit Nova if you are so determined that the games are so lousy and that online in general is so bad?

I don't get it.
