Some say you are testing for bots with them, ok, whatever, but once in a while should be enough, not every 5 bloody minutes.

Dear Kevin,

Thank you for contacting us.

If you are referring to the tournament pop-ups, they are designed to act as a reminder for players who have registered for tournaments.

They will include the date and time of the start of the tournament. All you are then required to do is login to the tournament lobby at the pre designated time and you will be taken to the tables.

If you are referring to the regular pop ups, we understand they are becoming an increasing annoyance.
