Chat box/ massive bet glitch

edited January 2016 in Poker Chat
To be honest im Really really annoyed....

This is an issue thats come up before and im sure will come up again, but how can it be acceptable that your download client allows a glitch where you cna be chatting in one chat box you hit enter to send the message and all of a sudden youve placed a large completely random bet elsewhere. ive started this thread so others that have had the issue can post so here so maybe something will be done about it.

i've actually asked CC to ban me from chatting at tables so this never happens to me again, so for anyone i bump into at the tables gl have a good game if they ever fix it let me know and ill try and get myself unbanned

    Hi Bus Bloke,

    Your annoyance is understandable, & it's something that has bitten us all at some stage.
     
    I'm not sure it is limited to the Download either, I seem to recall it used to happen on the browser, too, though it's been years since I used that.

    Truth to tell, I very much doubt there is a quick fix, because the "table to act" pops up.

    My solution is "once bitten twice shy" & I'm very very careful now.

    Wish I could give you a better answer, but that's my read.

    Barbra  W: Hi you're through Barbra  how may I assist you today ?

    RTL16: Hello Barbra , I was playing poker at the tables and I was chatting and I pressed enter 
    Another window popped up and a large bet was made on another  table , I hadnt intended to make this bet
    as I was talking elsewhere, this needs fixing, sorry if Im babbling, but Im pretty annoyed and Its tilting me.
    Its an on going issue , it has been mentioned before.


    Barbra W: Can I have your usename please

    RTL16 : RTL16 or ***** or something.... 


    Barbra W : Can I have your mothers maiden name,  D.O.B and first line of your address please.


    RTL16: ***********, **/**/** ,** ***** ******. ** ****

    Barbra W: Thank you , Ill retreive your details.

    Barbra W : Thank you for waiting, what table  did this occur?

    RTL16: Oh, Im not sure,I dont remember, the table isnt important, It could happen at any table.

    Barbra W : Okay , I could probably locate the table , What browser are you using? 

    RTL16 : Oh,, err Firefox..

    RTL16 : I dont see...

    Barbra W : Thank you , can you switch to I.E. and download the latest version please.


    RTL16: !!!! OKay, ill do that later, if its any help, it was a £16 DYM at 9:00, I finished 4th. Just 10 minutes ago ?

    Barbra W: Thank you, one moment please...........
    ..........................................
    ..........................................


    Barbra W: Okay, thank you , I think I have found It. You raised 2,600 leaving yourself 400 behind
     the blinds were only 20/40 .

    RTL16 : Yes, thats the one , Is there any way I can be chat banned, so this cant happen to me again, Im going to post something  in the forums about this.

    Barbra W: Im Sorry, we cant just chatban for no reason, have you considered improving your Bet-sizing ? I see you were in position
    A flat call would have been better. I looks like  would have lost the hand anyways, your opponent had a straight and you had 7 high.

    RTL16 : LOOK< WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO DO TO GET CHAT BANNED AROUND HERE , FFS !!!! ??????

    Barbra W : Im sorry,I dont need to be spoken to like this.....

    the only thing you missed mumsie was them asking me to have my phone ready to take a screen shot every time i hit enter in chat, as my prt screen button doesnt work on pc :/

    and they do actually chat ban you if you ask them to, although the first guy i asked messed that up aswell it went something like this..

    lee: hi asad can you chat ban me please

    asad: yes sure if you want me to

    lee: yes please thanks

    asad: ok thats done for you

    ...........
    ............
    ............
    ..........

    loads up £11 dym

    types in chat to see if ban has been placed

    lee: hi andy can you see this?

    andy: nice chat ban!!

    lee: ffs..... they cant even get that right

    agree with the part in bold, which is why i asked them to chat ban me. with all the facebook groups and the forum anyway i firgure i can stil talk to people that way.

    and this will also help with my tilt issues cant get lairy with people in chat if i cant chat :)

    This is why i still use the old tables.

    This happened me a few times lost a 5.50 dym because of it lucky the other couple of times i didnt get called.

    I think this has been mentioned a number of times over the last 2 years or since the new software came out.

    Without exception, I probably make at least two raises like this every day.
    Doesn't bother me as I only play low stakes, but yes, it's a weird glitch for sure.

    ps. If you want to be chat banned, lets play a min stake HU game, get a bit sweary and I'll report it. I know it's daft, but no more daft than CC not removing your chat ability at your own request.

    Serves you right for talking too much imo.

    No sympathy.
  • edited January 2016
    I don't want sympathy because I don't care, so there, Mr. Smartypants.
    And, I don't talk that much.

    I'm willing to sit on a table with you, and have you shower me with abuse, and then I'll report your backside.

    The things I do for the forum....

    Ive done it many times but when were 8/10 tabling we shouldnt be chatting to much RLT16 as this can happen and to hard to keep up with tables. Im usually happy to chat when im 1/4 tabling.

    You know your trouble Timmy? Every post of yours I read, on every topic, makes me more convinced of this - you suffer from something called common-sense.
