Default Re: To All Sites: Stealing Focus actually slows down the games

[ QUOTE ]
It depends on what you're trying to do. In your example, you talked about different sites stealing focus from one another, which TweakUI should cure. If, however, you're trying to prevent different tables on the SAME site from stealing focus from one another, TweakUI will NOT work. That would be something the sites would have to fix, as you are requesting.

This is the worst. Some sites actually steal the focus out of their own buyin prompts or noteboxes. Trying to type a quick note while four tabling takes 5x longer and slows down the game as you have to keep refocusing the note box to type the last [censored] 3 words so you can get back to playing.

To all online poker sites:

Fix your software so that any window needing player action steals focus and does not allow the cursor out of the window until the action is complete.

For users who have several tables open, if a second table should require an action before the player has completed his action on the first table fold the players hand on the second table immediately!

Should a player "fix" the software to prevent a table window from stealing and holding focus, fold the players hand immediately upon failure to acquire and hold focus!

NOW THIS WOULD DEFINITELY SPEED UP THE GAME.

Don't most of the sites have an option for this? Under multi-table options for Stars, for instance, you can uncheck popup table when action required.

I have mine unchecked but it still pops up. I start writing a comment on one table and when I finish and hit enter it is posted on another. Players are like "wtf are you talking about".

Mind you I have comments like that anyway
