Sky Poker Forums is upgrading its look! Stay tuned for the big reveal!
**YOUR SUGGESTIONS WILL BE ANSWERED!!**
Hi Everyone,
I realise that this section of the website has become a bit stale in recent months (through no fault of your own!) so I am going to give it a full revamp!
The section will soon have specific areas of discussion, from the types of tournaments you enjoy playing to what you like seeing on the website!
Feel free to post some topic suggestions below and I will sift through them and get this section up and running properly!
Sorry if this has taken a while but, rest assured, it is soon to change!!
Cheers,
Jordan

Its a shame they don't do a post of the week cause IMO this would be a strong contender.
Steve
That would definitely be up there in a "post of the week" competition! Shame we don't have one at the minute (maybe that is a suggestion in itself!)
Hope you continue using the site and enjoy playing on here!
Good luck!
KaiQom - You can add Sky Poker friends by going to 'My Profile' searching for your friend's Alias and then adding them as a friend.
You cannot block users I am afraid but you can remove them as a friend again if needs be.
The suggestion for new avatars has been raised recently so watch this space...In the meantime you could try this: http://www.zwinky.com/dl/index.jhtml?spu=true&partner=ZJxdm348&theme=cartoon
Maxally - We don't have the option to mark a post as 'Unread' however we can see who posted the last comment and how long ago which (kind of) works in the same way.
belsibub - This is now in place so the 'Technical Queries' section will be replied to at least once daily, even if the actual resolution may take a bit longer.
Sikas - The downloadable client is currently at our testing stage so it should be available to you shortly. We will let everyone know once that is in action though!
In terms of rebuys, they are to remain as they are at the moment as they are proving popular, however I have passed your comments on so if there are any changes I will let you know.
We cannot do a player to player transfer I am afraid as it is seen as chip dumping and not part of the Sky Poker etiquette.
We often give out prizes etc if you knock out Tikay and/or Richard Orford albeit not all the time.
Your tables should pop to the front when it requires an action. If you have trouble with this try toggling between Internet Explorer 8 and Mozilla Firefox to see which one works best. If you have done this already maybe you could contact customer services to see if they can help you further.
I have forwarded your comment about 'Deals' forward, however, I am not confident that is something the "powers that be" would be interested in. I will let you know if they come back with anything that is likely to change though.
Cheers guys.

POST OF THE WEEK
THREAD OF THE MONTH
FUNNIEST POST OF THE WEEK
ETC.
GETS MY VOTE .
I had a telephone call from Sky Adam about this matter so is it possoble that he could be our point of call, im not to sure Adam will be happy with me putting his name up for this but if it helps to solve this matter im sure he wont mind .
If this suggestion is agreed could you please ask Adam to let the whole forum know that he is now our contact at Sky Poker . Thank you .
to be fair the above suggestions arent 'that' important to me personally, there'd just be some nice features to see, but what i would say is that im very regular player that must generate a fair amount of rake for the site when i go thru my stints of playin here, but what keeps Sky Poker from being my personal favourite and most used is the lack of tournaments ( all the good ones are only between 8:00-9:30) and the lack of options to spend your excess accrued poker points.
Its ok Jordan i am only joking but can you give us a clue when you will be answering these suggestions . Thank you . Mick .
I live in Hope
Lisa x
(they do on other sites)
I posted this suggestion on the 22/9/2010 at 6-10pm and i am still waiting for a responce ,is it possible that you can let me know what is happening to this suggestion .Thank you .
Cheers
Mick .
Once again, apologies for the lack of response, I have been off for the last couple of days! The disconnection issue should be resolved now, the technical team believe they have sorted it. What did customer care say when you contacted them? Hopeully we can sort this asap.
Sorry for the delay again!
Sikas-Hi again, the download is expected in a couple of weeks rather than months, our testers are putting the final touches to it now. I have forwarded your post to our poker management team so as soon as I get a response I will let you know about everything else.
Hi Lisa, Thanks for your suggestion, I have asked the question if it can be implemented. In the meantime you can click on 'Online Chat' at the bottom right of the screen as soon as you see any abuse and the customer care team can look into it straight away.
Hope that helps.
Thanks again everyone,
Jordan
Thank you for getting back to me on the subject of disconnections,you say "should be resolved now, the technical team believe they have sorted it ".
First of all when they say "sorted it " what have they sorted ,what was the problem, are they not going to tell us what all this was about ??.Also if this problem is now sorted are they going to tell us if as we all believe the problem was down to SKY POKER, because everyone at CC said that if there was a problem it was nothing to do with them .
But the fact that they "believe they have sorted it " surely shows that the problem was at there end and not as CC kept tell us .Is it possible to let me know when this was "sorted" as i played in the 7-10pm last night and still had problems with disconnections .
When Sky Adam rang me the other day about this matter i asked him to keep the forum up to date on what was happening ,which he said he would do that is why i suggested that he be our contact at Sky Poker about this matter. Has my suggestion been put to Adam if it has what was his answer ,if my suggestion hasent been put to Adam can you please tell me why not.This problem has effected to many people to be just dropped as being "sorted " we need to know what was wrong .
I look forward to Skys answers to this matter
Thank you .........Mick .
Once again Thank you .....Mick .
I'll be honest, I don't know what the problem is/was but I will make sure somebody posts on here tomorrow AND the disconnections thread to give you an update/resolution.
I have kept Adam in the loop with this as well, he returns next week.
Cheers,
Jordan
Once again thank you for getting back to me on this matter , i look forward to seeing what will be posted tomorrow.
Cheers
Mick .
You told me that it had been sorted ,so why was i just disconnected .I was playing the 7-10 pm ofordable i was on final table 5 players left just gone all in and bang DISCONNECTED YET AGAIN .
I didnt even get a chance to see what cards came down ,when i got re -connected i had to go back to the table and ask the other players what happened .
This is one very very unhappy poker player ,you have got all my system details so i dont expect to have to give them to you again .
The hand number was 0293224988 the time was 21-51 can you pass these details onto Sky Adam and also please make sure that SKY DES is informed about this as he asked me to report to him .
I will also e-mail Des about this matter it has now gone way beyond a joke as i have said all along THIS IS YOUR SITE AND YOUR PROBLEM .
FROM A VERY VERY VERY NOT HAPPY PERSON .
Mick.
Sorry for any confusion caused here to Mick and anyone else who may have read this thread, I've just placed an update on the disconnections thread in the Technical area here
Since we have not found any evidence of issues with the Sky Poker platform, we cannot say that this has been resolved or fixed, because we haven't found a problem.
It's definitely worth upgrading to the latest version of Adobe flash player (they upgraded in the last few days) as commented on that thread, which seems to have helped some users.
Unfortunately disconnections will occur occasionally on Sky Poker, as they will on any online poker site, but we are committed to providing as stable and robust a platform as possible for our customers to enjoy their poker on.
Once again apologies to Mick and anyone else for any confusion caused by this thread.
Kind regards
Adam
