Default pokerstars-mail...HU SNG\'s

Hi,
in my opinion the 1 minute waitingtime before every singel hu sng sucks big time. I play ~10 minutes a hu sng (i am suere there a lot guys who play way faster) and that makes 6 minutes waitingtime a hour or in other words a miss the time to play 6/10 of another hu sng. If i am a 10% roi winner i lose 6% roi every hour just because of useless waitingtime.
But it's not only a disadvatage for the players... pokerstars does also lose rake trough this waitingtime so it should also be in pokerstars interest to abolish this extra waitingtime.

Would be somedbody here so kind and formulate a e-mail which he could puplish in this forum so that evrybody can send it to pokerstars?
My english isn't the best which i think you can see so i would be happy if somebody could write a mail.

Anybody interested in this?

I think we could use your first paragraph as a request. I'm with you, but my English is also not perfect. Great idea.

PokerStars is there for the fish's enjoyment. If the fish was able to play more games without a waiting time and a limit on tables, then the fish would bust out faster and be less likely to deposit. Suppose Fish deposits into Stars and Tilt. The combination of slower software, the waiting time, the table limits, and the added levels makes the money run out slower. The fish looks at $100 he deposited on Stars and sees it lasted 2 weeks. That same $100 he deposited on Tilt last 1 week and 2 days. Who is Fish more likely to keep on using? Who is the more popular site?

Sorry but this is in my opinion just nonsens. They are not keeping the 1 min so that the losing players on their site can be happy about having money on their account for a longer period of time.

*edit*

I do not play on Poker Stars but I think it is a great idea to make such an e-mail and send it to Stars.

how about 30 seconds?

i agree 1 minute is definetly too long and i'm not sure why they have it?

edit/ i guess it's so that someone who registers and waits for someone else and walks away doesn't miss any hands

While your at it, get them to shorten the disconnect waiting times.
