PI had done it again even they could see the results of the MISSING information from last time

Yes, as you can see I am a very dissapointed player. So dissapointed that I seriously consider to start playing again at another site in the iPoker network.

lol..even the typing doesnt work now. Of some reasons this line could not be written in Heading 3.

For around 3-4 months ago PI promissed the members that they would tell if something didnt work correctly or if they were going to change challenges etc. They would either write it under announcements in the forum or sending it out with a newsletter. I wonder why they told us that when they didnt kept their promises. Just see last months. The updating didnt work more than half of the time for the month. And there were absolute NO information regarding this. First when I open a topic asking what was going on, we could get an answer. And the answers were the usually ones. Our programmers are working on it or we contacted BetMost Poker regarding this. Sorry to say this but I know quite a lot of programming and when the same errors happen again and again, then I think that either the programmers arent not good enough or the server capacity are way to small.

You can already see the result of the last time regarding the missing updates and the lack of information. Normally there were a lot of posts under announcement in this forum. Both new topics and comments but for the last 2 months there have not been much activity in here and especially after the last problems. In fact this post is the first member post under "Normal" for more than one week!! The missing activity in here is also the reason to why I had stopped posting and updating my topics in here.

Now PI done it again!!! Without any words even promised earlier they have again removed the cash prize pool from the team challenge. Its only 2 months ago the started the new promotion for the team challenge regarding the best hand jackpot. Ok it looks amazing but as you will see there will not be won prizes for that every month. Mayby a straight flush 1-2 times yearly and 4 of a kind from jacks and up will likely be there 4-6 times a year. royal flush in spades maybe 1 time for every 50 years. And now just 2 monts after the start they removed the prize pool again. Now there are again only freeroll tokens. How amazing is it to win the challenge for getting a freeroll token where you had to win again??? Many 1-3 place finishers in the challenge will be very dissapointed for winning nothing. So yet again I have lost my interest for that challenge because I think it is yet again worthless.

Hey,

1) The cash prizes were changed at the start of the month because of the complaints we got previously about changing things 5 days into a new months. Therefore,  we changed this at the start of the month so that all members would see it when the challenge started.

2) The team challenge is an added benefit ontop of the main benefit of the leaderboards or being on a custom plan... which many of our members are. Therefore,  you're already being rewarded highly for your play...and the team concept is just something extra so players can win some extra money and play as a team for fun.

3) We also added to Jackpot prizes which are huge. Even without them the team challenge is giving out $1,000 a month minimum...which is a great added benefit.

We're constantly giving our members more benefits and changing other benefits and making the site a better place. But you have to realize that certain extra benefits are temporary and extras that will change. And if changed it will be done at the beginning of a month so that members are aware of the change before the months starts...and they start playing.

Good luck at the tables.

Here is a list of all the benefits you get from PokerInside while you play. I mgiht have missed a few...but I think I go them all.

1) Poker payback leaderboards
2)Custom payback plans
3) LB 1,2,3 tournaments
4) Player Freeroll
5) Gambler Freeroll
6) $500 and $350 team freerolls
7)$250 referral commission plan
8)$500 referral freeroll
9)$50,000 Jackpot Hand Bonus
10) ALl the prizes from the VIP Levels on PokerInside.

P.S- I don't see how people can say we're not rewarding players for being members on our site...or upset when minor extra benefits change due to the promotion expiring or something new being added.

Now wasn't the prise money for this taken from the Gambler's & Players Freerolls? We were told that any $$$ in the Team hadda come from somewhere and you took it, now your taking it away?? You could of announced it in the newsletter before it happened, but you know what would happen, now this?

I don't know what else to say, but maybe good bye?!

no more 3x350 fr'sx4= 4200, players cut from 1000 to 700 x 4= 1200 (also changed from a vip fr to a what have you done lately, same as the LBs) gambler's 500- 250 x 4 = 1000 add that all together you get 6400 mnthly!

 As for the other benefits, what about the benefits PI gets when our teams play 40,000 or so RH's monthly?

You're not taking into account all the things that are added and the players that are put on custom plans....that is earning members tens of thousands of dollars or more then they would get with the standard payscale for the leaderboards. Also, the added $50,000 jackpot hand bonus that was added to the team concept.

i think PI got one of the best bonuses on ipoker network so please don't change it,but i see too that bonuses are smaller and smaller:(

I wonder if they notice the drop in Rake this month

If I can have a word in this too...

Why not skip this $50,000 jackpot and make something funnier instead!

I can only speak for me self, but this jackpot thing does not motivate me to play more, because it feels impossible to get. It is more like playing lotto. I rather play for something I can get.... 

Agree with you,i think its impossible to get 50k,maybe make some more smaller promotions for that money.

maybe add a 50 000 prize pool tourney instead for the players of ipoker the ones who get enough nibs or raked hands that would be fun

As I said in some other topic, I think good idea would be to remove this 50,000 Best Hand Jackpot and put back cash prizes for top places in Team Play instead...

It would be great, but I don't think it is a working option.
