Moanings and complains after vote are here ONLY

[BlackLava]

Hi all,

I know we will face tons of moanings after the poll.
Threads will be closed or even deleted! You need to post here, it will be the only spot I will read.
For repetitive attempt to spam the forum with complains you could even be banned now : Important information and help queries are lost in the pool of recurring messages.
Our forum needs to still be readable!

Hello BL
No complaints, it is your decision after all and there are a number of positive points about the new script.
How to encourage all old players back is most important now and if we can get it as close to the old site as possible with avatars, that should go a long way.
It is great that you take the time and patience to listen to all your players.

Hey Lava,
I dont really have anything to complain about but, with the refund thread closed, how am I supposed to get a refund. For me it has been 24hrs, so I'm unsure as to what to do or who to talk to. Or should I just wait. I just need some clarification please.

Thank You
Sandz

Yes make it exactly the same

Also was there a point to the poll?

[PatrickM234]

well i was looking forward to coming on here and viewing the guaranteed win on the poll for going back to the old site, which I did, only to find out it wont be adhered to. Now even with Blacklava's "excuses" I have lostall respect for him. It is obvious to me now that he never had any intention of going back to te old site. I am very disappointed and I will not be coming back here anymore, more because I dont have any respect for Lava now more than the fact that the new script is not to my liking. Im just sorry I didnt listen to Roo in the first place. I would like to say bye to all who have been friends with me during my time on OP66 and I hope you all have a happy future. seeya around.

P.S Im sorry if that sounds harsh but lava talks about us needing to trust him, yet he didnt trust us!

I know there will be a number of people who will be unhappy about Lava's decision, but I would urge all of you to at least give the new script a fair trial. I was very dissapointed at first, but over the past few days I have started to enjoy my poker again and realise that there is A way forward.

OK granted it was not the choice of the majority but I think Lava has taken the sensible approach.

Why don't we all give it a go for a week and then see how we feel. I expect there will be some people who leave the site ( I hope not ) but that will be their choice. If the lag and connectivity problems had continued or got any worse on the old script I feel sure that we would have lost even more in the long run.


SO I say .. LET's GIVE IT A CHANCE

This is BL's business and livelihood and this is a business decision. Nothing stays the same and everything has to grow, or not as the case may be. I think this is an opportunity to grow with it, as long as all the changes are made to make it as close as possible to the old script.

I have to say, I was dead set on just packing it in, but I may just take some of your advice and give it a go for a week and see what happens, I am not sure if I will come round but i think I have to forget the old site and judge the new one singly which may help. thanks jock

[telboy]

i agree with jockney one week is not a fair trial for new script
i will stay and hopefully the familly will grow back as the script improves good luck blacklava with all your hard work

[SandzSizzle]

It was a business decision and we all know the higher power who Lava must eventually answer to..........

I would love the old site back, but hopefully with all the things being done to make as far a possible like the old 1
IE Av's, Top list and everything else, things can only get better.

It is surly UP TOO US TO MAKE IT A GREAT PLACE TO PLAY POKER AGAIN, WITH A GREAT SENSE OF COMMUNITY, LAUGHTER AND FRIENDSHIP.


It was the people who made O66 the best place to play free poker with Lava's help.

So I hope more and more of you great people will come back we miss you.

Spread the Love.

Hope this has not upset anyone.


P.s.

The one thing that I am disappointed about is the big tourney as the old site was certainly a better system for those. As I mostly play them it has affected me the most. All the same buy-ins 6 hourly and not the same points system grrrrrrr. Hope they will evolve into something more like the old site when Lava can get round to it please.

well said i totaly agree but what balck also said was to run both scripts in jucton with each other

[faceless]

i wont laeve this site because i'm unhappy, also dont want to start a war but as far as i know all over the world majority rules....doesnt it..if u said in the beginning that you have a 90% vote i dont think ppl would have voted.......i think u knew u were gonna go with the new script but just had a voting to keep unhappy players happy for a while(naughty naughty naughty lmao) why did u still set up a poll for voting then.........

[GRAVY]

I cannot believe ANY of you did not realise the poll was irrelevant.....

A new site was created and during the week Lava has been adding and changing things throughout the week....

What would be the point of doing that if you were going to back to the old site ...(NONE) (simplified anallergy......its like putting your house up for sale for £250k, then adding a 25 grand extension and selling it for the original asking price)

I knew nothing would change ... I cant believe people REALLY thought we would go back... I told people last weekend we would NEVER go back but people only hear what they want to...

FYI ... I HATE the new site and wish we were on the OLD site.. I also dislike some of the muppets on the "other side",in fact the ONLY thing i like is the folded cards view....

We have 2 choices...

1. Grin and bear it
2. Leave and play somewhere else

i know what i will do ... you can make your own decisions as to which path you may choose

[faceless]

well said gravy.. think i'll go with option nr 1....just wish they would change my damn name as i have requested.....

PHEW.... For a moment I thought every1 lost their sense of humor. Glad u liked it.

[ChineseIrish]

I genuinely feel that I have wasted 5 months of my life.I put so much time into This sited I always believed OP66 was democratic. Lava, I mentioned my repect for you many times, but am lost for words. why the vote?

I simply cannot play with stupid people typing stupid things in the chatbox, and I cant play with players called strokemyc**k. There is no community now. OP66 was a unique poker site, but now its just like the countless other generic clones. These blow ins from other sites have no respect.

There will be fallout, and you will lose a lot of long timers here. People like 1ou 1ou. I hope it was worth it.

something beautiful, that brought together people from all walks of life has been destroyed.

WELCOME TO CONFORMITY


EDIT:Its interesting to see the title of this thread. If the voice of the majority is not heard, the majority is rightly expected to take issue
