Default Would more blinds make for better games?

The games on the net are in bad shape.I would like to see a site try adding more blinds in a game to loosen them up a bit,maybe 4 blinds (2big 2 small).
Or is this just a bad idea?

UB has kill games.

Just go sit at one until the game fills.

Antes and kill games dont have the same effects as a double blind game. If people would play them think how wild some of the games would get.

Fix those tables now. FT, PS, PP or anyone. Make it a special tab in the lobby and call it "Loosey Goosey Poker" or something and I'll certainly sit down.

The industry needs to think outside the box and come up with new ideas (or games) that makes playing more fun and action packed for everyone. Ideas that also breaks the spell of games constantly getting tighter and tighter. This 4 blind game is one idea I would welcome. Especially for Limit Games although I don't play it that much.

I like it, 4-blinds seem too much and "non-standard". However, I do think the games (both limit and NL) can improve with the introduction of 3 blinds.

No, less multi-tablers would. This is evident in the sites that are not frequented by the 'Pro' Multi-tabler. The Boss Network is a good example

I agree 100%. WE don't need more blinds, just games with less mutli tablers

How about what Los Angeles does with NL games. Cap the buyins at 20-40BB instead of 100. Fish loose less, it requires some gambling to get to a decent size stack for the limit. The action at these tables is much better than on the net. Pushes players to a higher blind level if they want to gamble with the same amount of money.
