Default *Official* Suggestions for Stars Thread

I dunno why nobody's made this yet. Looks like lots of us are moving to Stars, and looks like Stars is interested in what we have to say, so I think we should gather all our suggestions into one thread.

Anyway, post your suggestions for PokerStars here. Hopefully Lee'll read it.

Edit: Also, we really want Lee Jones to read this thread and take it seriously. In order to encourage him to do so, please don't complain about how Stars is rigged or ask for things that Lee's already said he won't do (like rakeback).

Software is too slow, so speed it up. It shouldn't be too hard to fix, and it would also mean more money to them.

Points to cash at a rate of 50%+ rakeback. Online poker is absurdly expensive and whilst Stars' rake schedule is better than most it's still criminally high considering the overheads. They are in a position to set up a near monopoly if they were to do this.

They won't of course, not a chance, but that's what we all want. Until then, I'm staying at Full Tilt. Better games and less rake.

I'll start:

1) Speed up everything. The crazy drama every time someone goes all in is costing both professional players and Stars money. It obviously doesn't appeal to the average player that much because the average player played a lot on Party, where everything was very fast.

2) Synch up the breaks of your MTTs. I.e., have all MTTs break from 1 PM to 1:05 PM and then from 2 PM to 2:05, etc (maybe every hour and a half would be better?). This will make multitabling tournaments WAY easier.

3) Allow users some way to queue up tournaments. I.e., if I want to play 12 25+2, 9-man turbos, let me sign up for 12 at once instead of having to go back and forth between the lobby and my tables.

4) Allow me to rebuy in fewer clicks (preferably one). Right now, maintaining an 100 BB stack on multiple tables is very difficult because I have to click the chips then the "Add more chips", then OK.

5) Keep up the good work. Stars is awesome.

1. speed up software
2. turbo tourneys
3. satellites to daily tourneys
4. more big tourneys
5. more limit tourneys, maybe one day of super limit
6. start tourneys with 2500 chips rather than 1500 (i know they won't)
7. wpt winner's choice tourneys
8. automate deal making process
9. make buying in for the max the default in nl or make an option button to automatically do this
