    APOLOGY . This past week many of you have had to witness and suffer me being unbelievable grumpy . I have moaned and groaned pretty much non stop. Normally , i like to think ,i am laid back about things . Generally i take losing at poker well and my normal response to bad beats ,bad calls , 3 outers and the rest of the stuff that everyone knows to well ,is to laugh and type in ,lol nh. Sometimes it takes a few seconds but i normally see the funny side of things quickly.So what has ruffled my feathers !?! Its been a build up of several things .Firstly , my gf lives in the Philippines and i have been worried sick. Today , another typhoon hit the country and to my relieve she is fine .  I also drove my mums best friend to hospital this week , where she was given the news she has cancer. Myself , i have been in horrid pain with a kidney stone ..Its just been one of those weeks .Yes and then there is poker . Have seen my bankroll shrink and shrink and this week with everything going on , didn't take losing at all well . So , i would like to say sorry to everyone and thank you for putting up with me .Also ,nutter ty m8, i have no doubt that if sky rich and the community would of been around back then ,every thing would of been sorted  much sooner. gl all.

    Hi Rich

    I also have had lots of trouble with the poker site and yes customer care are not great to say the least.
    I told them a table would not launch in the 60p roulette, which I pointed out was a bit unfortunate with the blind structure. Having discussed the usual what flash player are you using,have you deleted your cache and internet files recently ect ect, They then explained to me that with the roulette games all the chips go in and the best hand wins. If I not been so cross that they took 10minutes to advise me of that little gem I would have thought it funny. As we all know the game they were talking about was STT not MTT. Well no worries they are going to refund buy- in... holding my breath on that one. Last week I was on a table that would not launch with saint07 whose table also would not launch, well after one player went out that left the table with 3 players and just for a laugh I watched the poker lobby saints and my blinds were going so fast the 3rd player was obviously having no problems. My problems this week are according to the sky care team just me....what a surprise. Anyway I think I have now worked it out... a while ago when I was again having problems I was told by a few players to download google chrome, I did this and everything was fine for a while. I had previously been using Explorer 8. Now the point of this story is that now I have trouble with google chrome and the sky site but Explorer 8 now works fine. Back now to my question could it be that when sky make upgrades it affects only certain search engines and if this is the case would it not be helpful if sky let us know which search engines are compatible with the site on any given day. I really love this site but it does occassionaly leave you very frustrated and cross.

    hi rich--can we get avatars for the customer care agents?---then we can virtually poke them in the eye with our pointer arrows--lol

    tiggerace dont use chrome ..stick with exp8  .. i used to have alot of prob's with loading  tried java and all that yadda yadda  ...exp8 is fine for me .. the only thing I do now is when game starts    is come off games menu and click  on to community forum  --it appears by doing that your not carrying the whole games server with  your own game... I know it sounds silly but works for me            glk

    Hi Rik

    Now that is a really good idea.
    What I love about the "agents" is even when your held in a queue they confirm that noone else is having problems.
    Hey its just me then

    Hi Benny

    Thanks for that info.
    I agree that explorer8 is ok at the moment but has had problems in the past.
    Likewise google chrome was ok and now is not.
