Ability to buy anything you want in FPP store with your accumalated FPP's regardless of current status such as Silver/Gold/Supernova, etc.. I really don't see why there are separate stores. If I save the FPP's over long period let me spend them as I wish. I can understand an occasional special for certain levels.

yep - annoys the hell out of me too and loses them some business as I am now have enough FPP's to buy some good stuff but can't play enough hands in a month to get to a level to buy it.

[/ QUOTE ]

Good to see I'm not alone feeling that way. I easily maintain Silver and occasionally Gold but anything higher would be hard to reach at my stakes without seriously playing over my bankroll.

[/ QUOTE ]

Me too. The lower levels pay more in rake/FPP (because they don't get the bonus FPP's of the higher levels), so saving up for 186k FPP (for example) will result in stars making much more profit from a bronze player than a supernova. The fact that the current rules prohibit a lower volume player saving up for a big gift is a terrible business practice IMO.

It is a terrible business practice to give a lower volume player incentive to play more?

The rules regarding your VIP level and ordering an item from the store are pretty flexible so far as I know... If you're a little short of Gold but want an item that requires it, mails support & ask.

Lifetime supply of condoms with the Pokerstars logo. At least it would make for honest advertising, considering their dreaded 'doomswitch.'

Giving the bonus FPP's is an incentive for players to play more per month. Restricting FPP redemption is a disincentive for long term loyalty.

oI was reading twoplustwo forums today and saw that the Xbox360 and
Playstation 3 would soon be added as a prize to the FPP store. I was
curious if there were any intentions of adding the Nintendo Wii along with these two consoles.

Thanks for your reply,
Thomas

Hello Thomas,

Sorry, I am not sure if the Nintendo Wii will be added as well. I have
forwarded your email to Management for future consideration.

Thank you for making PokerStars your online site of choice.


Regards,

Thomas
