So, is anyone going to address the dramatic drop in traffic over the last month? I literally am not going to be able to play there anymore. this is just ridiculous.

I've been wondering the same thing. Things seemed like they were really picking up for a minute there. It will be a real shame if this whole thing eventually peters out.

Looks like Priming the Pump has turned into Pumping the Stump. [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

Whats their to address??

The majority, as usual are paying hundreds even a week for a service that is now free now at worldpx.com. Stupidly...
People just need to wise up.

Worldpx.com really has nothing too lose(besides promotional money) to stay rake free and alot to gain by staying rakefree. I mean if they start raking people just will leave. If they stay rakefree.. then at least they have a chance at new customers who will bet on sports and casino games.

The whole WPX debacle reminds me of the age old dilemma of being too nice to a girl; she will view it with suspicion at best. Then she'll go seek out her comfort zone, ultimately settling in with someone that treats her like [censored].

2 big bets per 100 for breaking even and all everyone does is bitch. Absolutely mind boggling, these effing ingrates.

Seriously, if I were Fred & Co. I'd tell everyone to go [censored] themselves and pull the plug.

I wish I knew. It's getting to the point where I'm just going to end up playing NL most of the time because there aren't enough (or any) LHE games. Hopefully I can get the hang of NL fast enough to make it worthwhile. I think I'm going to have to re-deposit at Stars and/or Full Tilt.

I bet if they added names to the HH, they would get more players. Or maybe not, it does seem the way it is going now they don't need to try anything different .... Oh wait...

No way that traffic has naturally tapered off like this in one month. Something happened.

I think WPEX found all the bots this month and yanked them. Which is awesome if they did, but it would be nice to let some of us regulars know what is going on.

I hope they took every last nickel from the bot accounts.

I have been playing regularly wsex nl00 and 200. I learned NL and built my stack there ( 100 rakeback equals to great success at lower stakes). My problem is I'm doing better 6 tabling NL200-400 elseware with bonus and rakback, probably close to 45% rakeback a month (large number of hands).

I would play wsex at once they add Pahud support. No doubt in my mind. Playing on the internet you need some information about the other players. This information I can easily get by 3-table at wsex myself. But playing more tables is just too much. This advantage of Pahud thing is exxagerated. Most important stats is for me VPIP, PFR, postflop aggression and "fold to cbet" and number of hands. This is not hard to figure out if you play only 2-3 tables without any tools, but is off course hard multitabling. Some people use it badly and others dont mind because they play up to three tables. Pahud is also free for all. I think more people avoids the software of wsex, rather than joining it because of the Pahud ban.

Please add support and let people play as many tables as they want. Why do things different than all other successfull softwares?

I haven't seen a bot in days at 5/10 and up. I think you're right, DDY. They seemed to have cleaned out the first wave of bots about two weeks ago, and then another batch showed up. But the new bots seemed to have disappeared 2-3 days ago. I'm also interested in what happened, and really hope that WPEX tells us about it.

Yes, there's fewer games, but it's so nice to be able to sit down at 10/20 game and not have 3 guys at the table with notes that say "def. bot" or "probably bot."

Either the bots took their winnings and left, they were not winning bots and cut their losses, or WPEX busted their asses. I think we need to hear from WPEX about which is the case.

I asked the guy maintaining the list for it and was told they all went away/got bustoed recently, so yeah, seconding the guy above me.

That is perhaps the only reason I could have heard for the player number drop that both makes sense and makes me happy. Go WPEX! [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
