Unknown,
IMO its fine sometimes, basically as long as you aren't constantly moving around like every 10 hands to get position on who you want.

It isnt even possible most of the time. There is usually just 1 seat available at a juicy table anyway and if another one opens there`s ppl on the wl occupying it.
I do it whenever I have a chance to get position on a fish. I can understand it`s considered bad style but I guess I can live with that.

It's a shame you can't jump seats to get position on someone any more, but it's a small price to pay to eliminate the shortstackers, I guess. I really wish they'd implement a 'request seat change' feature although I'm fairly certain that will never happen.

Jumping seats to get position on someone is such a [censored] scummy move. Its def a good thing you can't do that anymore.

i'm pretty sure you can still jump seats -- i just did 5 mins ago

I tried leaving a table and when I opened it back up it automatically popped me right back in my original seat with my former chip stack. This is what we want for the shortstackers, but it seems to be stopping me from jumping seats when a good one opens up.

As Expected party elects to choose greed over meeting the demands of their high volume players. They would never actually make it difficult for short stackers because they might actually lose some business/players. They just make a small cosmetic change to keep the high volume players happy for a few weeks, till they realize it didn't do a god damn thing.

oh yeah and why did this take 3 months to test and put in place again? party is the worst company in the history of online poker and that includes absolute.
