Ryan - Site updates

A lot of folks are wanting to have some updates to the site. Other Mod's can chime in.

1st - we need to fix the lag and log out issues first and foremost. This is driving players away, and new players. We still have folks paying for this site and we want to add more... so, help us, help you! I am sure that this goes for Kdice as well.

2nd - Need an added bonus for members in the members tourney. Payout structure needs to be revised..if they are already paying, then paying a buyin, need to entice players to WANT to be a member. The 25k a month can (and often is) lost in a single hand.

3rd - Give Mods the ability to see all the accounts when moderating. This is currently broken and is hard to confirm if users are breaking the rules... which leads to unhappy users that are abiding by them. It used to work, where we could enter a player name and it would list all other players on the same IP. I think we all get that there are some players that are on a shared IP (school, library, work, etc.) and I would hope that you would trust us to make good decisions.

4th - In Tourney, If Away, player should be forced into every big blind. Granted, need to fix the 1st one. Too many play tables and tourneys at the same time and being away can take away from a player's placement in a tourney.

5th - There is no incentive to being a Mod, and I havent been here for years, but I am back! Others have continued to be here and help moderate this site for all users. I cannot even give another mod a contribution... So, maybe something can be done to show some appreciation to these folks that have worked hard.

Just my 2 cents. I will likely send as an email as well, but thought that we could all chime in on some things that we would like to see for the site(s) we love.

Gives Mods ability to see the email address tied to account. Too many times players cannot remember their email to log into accounts. When we search a player and it will provide their email address, we can help them remember.

Can we get the social media platforms fixed? Have players that cannot play without. This could help drive more traffic as well.

Also, could we run some Ads? Might help generate traffic and could help with monetary to help keep the site running.

There are other sites now that are comparable to GPokr, so it is more competitive now to retain players. This site is unique in its is social atmosphere that we all enjoy and we can use that to an advantage.

Could we schedule meeting/call with you to discuss options/issues? It may be challenging with different time zones, but just a thought.

I loved this site for years, then life happened to me and have been gone a while. But, I would really like to see it be what it once was and would like to help any way I can.

Thank you for your time in considering these suggestions!

would like to see FB login working, still have many players that use this that can't play. would like to make sure email confirmations are working correctly. access to emails would be helpful to help players, but i think mods should be allowed to change emails for them. no offense, but it takes much more time to give Ryan the info and wait for it to be fixed. mods need to be allowed to zero chips out when players caught cheating

Could Mods have ability to reset chips for someone caught cheating? It is not hard to confirm cheating, especially if we have some of the things implemented here that could help. Perhaps even 2 Mods need to confirm one another on the decision to do so?

It was a problem years ago, that remains. Cheaters are awarded medals because they still have chips which can eliminate other players from getting a medal who play fair. There are several that are getting medals this month, that should not.

When you are at a table and have chips bet on a hand and then have to refresh for the table lagging...you shouldnt get sat out and taken off the table...i personally have lost many chips and lost good hands because of this happening...dont know if this can be fixed,but it should be looked into....
