    Innit!

    I love your name Sir.

    Do you mean that players are playing too slowly, i.e the timer goes down the whole way before they act? If, so, i don't have a problem with this because we all have 15 seconds to act per hand on this site, which is a relatively short time frame in any case.

    It is perfectly acceptable to take the full time on every hand imo. Because, some players might be beginners, and genuinely thinking about what to do, and some of us think faster than others. As you say it is only a handful players, i don't see the problem personally. If he is timing out, it could be that he just hasn't thought in time... or that he has a poor connection... who knows...

    Bananadog has proved in the clinic that slow-playing is over-rated ;)
