Ongame, for the love of god.

[The once and future king]

Ongame has some great bonus/rb possibilities, but I just cant play there because their lobby puts me on tilt. Its so un user friendly and retarded. Also tables poping up without warning or dialogue boxes..wtf.

Just cant stand it, clearing bonus then Im outer there.

I always hear people complaining about how horrible their software is, but it doesn't really bother me that much...except for this:

WTF is right. I have my table sound turned off, get on waiting lists, and I'll be busy doing something else while I wait for tables. About 10 minutes later I might remember that nothing has come up yet, and I'll check and what do you know? There's a table that has popped up UNDER my Internet Explorer window, who knows how long it's been there, and my seat is long gone. FFS OnGame...FIX THIS!!!

Yea but even choosing what tables you want to play on is a nightmare. No filters, no way of selecting by pot size etc, the way the tables jump about as people stand up/sit down.

Most players including me in the past do not seem to like the Ongame software. I started at PokerRoom in 2001 or 2002 and desided to get out when I had cleared the bonus. I went back in the Ongame in 2007 and as Stars got rigged on me (I don't mean you won't win there, and I can still win there but I get the red flag if I play too much), had to make it my main place (though it rates to be rigged in the long run according to the stats I have from some other 2+2 players, but staying inside the unwritten limitations so the player base won't suffer, one should do fine, but over that is the same as when one does too much fishing, there being laws against it). It sure feels playable these days to me, not sure what it's about in the beginning.

One tip is to drop the table on the graphics file or whtever it's called that has the table from a skin one prefers (I use the Betsson's table where ever I play at, some prefer some other). One needs to drop it after one has opened the software as it updates everything every time one starts the software.

so stars is rigged i knew that .. but ongame is rigged too ? dammit i wanted to set up shop there.

The software is extremely poor written, for me it often becomes non responsive for 4-5 seconds and refuses to accept any input.

Especially if I multitable 4-5 tables with PAHUd, flickering problems, slow as a turtle in a tarpit in general.

What tilts me the most is that you have to sit out to rebuy (thereby missing out on a hand if you are unlucky in your timting).

Table list in lobby keeps jumping around randomly.

Waitinglist tables popup on top on my active tables.

Clicking hand history launches an external browser which takes 5-6 seconds to load while hanging the rest of my tables.

It´s not the software that cause the lag, it´s pahud. Try turning it off and everything is going smooth again. Delete the statistics file from /databases before every session and you should be able to get in 3-4000 hands before it grows so big pahud is struggling with it again.

[mocky]

Hey Mr Wishbone could you tell a noob how to do this please?ty

[londomollari]

What tilts me is when a table disappears in the middle of a [censored] hand :@. I have a 3Ghz dual core with 2gb of ram so it isn't my computer.

[SinkRox]

Has the software been noticeably laggier for others over the last few days?
