Default PokerStars: Fix This or Get Boycotted.

PokerStars 3/6 Hold'em (5 handed)

Preflop: Hero is SB with Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, Button calls, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Button calls.

Flop: (5 SB) Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, Button calls.

Turn: (3.50 BB) J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, Button calls.

River: (5.50 BB) 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero folds.

Final Pot: 5.50 BB

I was multitabling and this happened. Why does PokerStars do that? They could have just made my action a check. Open folding is not a logical option.

This is a disgusting, irrational, idiotic, annoying, and unfair feature of their software. I suggest everyone email them asking them to change it and if they don't, we organize a mass boycott of their site until they do.

Frankly I'm glad they do this and I'm a multitabler too. Suck it up or play fewer tables.

As opposed to you taking forever to act being rude, obnoxious, selfish, and bad for the game? I'm with Pokerstars on this one. If you can't act in the 15 or 20 seconds allotted, then you deserve to forfeit the pot. Pay attention or cut some tables. For the sake of a little more profit, you slow down the games of 50+ players. So please, boycott the site and [censored] off.

I think Stars would be more responsive to a hunger strike.
