Good news for OnlinePoker66 players

[BlackLava]

Hi all,

as you could have noticed the traffic on real money tables was going down a bit through the last weeks/months, this will be fixed with the upcoming merge of our actual network (Everleaf) with UPN (another new European one handled by Everleaf too) : The merge should come around january 20th and will allow double currency at the same time ($ and Euros), this will double or triple the traffic on tables and sit&go!
I'm posting that in real money side because as you may know our free chips SNG and tournaments are private and only available to op66 players so it's mostly something for real money players and should trigger much faster action on SNGs which should fill up in a better way

This is some work and we will have more times afterward to fix remaining issues and queries (like the 2009 toplists archives and other modified tournaments)

with the new players comming in (gr8 news by the way) would this be a good or even posable time to lift the chat block on nework players ????????

A network is a group of poker sites using same tables to play in order to benefit from shared softwares updates and hosting plus higher number of availables tables sng and tournaments.

About chat : Removing filter would be an awfull move as UPN is at first an European network with Italian speaking players... And the merge will unfortunately higher the languages issues

Never mind.

Great news (last days no players for fill satellites for big tourneys,
and S&G all time same ppl, game long forever)
Im litle sad about chat restriction, and im think that
should be fix somehow, chatbox is lame way for cheating (there are
other ways for cheating), and i dont see other reason for blockin chat.
Liberate that Lava!

As I just said : UPN is filled by European players and mostly Italians, removing chat filter would be very messy as we have an english only rules (which is a good rule to build a community and avoid issues).
I know your point of vue Joya and I know others acknowledge with that but from a moderation point of vue and in regards of past issues we will stick to actual setup for now.

This merge can't happen soon enough...money side is way to quiet..sit and goes only games going on or double ups which I like too but I prefer a proper sit and go game. Also come on Op 66 players, play some proper sit and goes small stakes... plenty of players around with loose change in pockets from outlaws

The past issues I believe you are referring to are when we were with Pit, while I acknowledge the vast majority of players there were polite there were some real nasty ones too.

The main problem that I could see was that our moderation team could do nothing and the pit team would ignore OP66 players. This does not seem to be the case with everleaf every time I have a problem I now go to them as

I normally cant find a moderator who deals with the real money side and the 24/7 have been very helpful.

Is it not possible to lift chat restrictions just on the real money side Im a big cat and can take as good as I get, just like I have to in live poker games and as they say if you cant stand the heat stay out of the kitchen.
