Party-Poker player-ID change

[Mukkbert]

It's possible now to change player ID at PP. I realy don't like it. People already have 3 accounts (Party,Empire and Intertops) and now you can change the playername as often you want to. Pokertracker becomes worthless. I was wondering about all that new players and asked 24h help. All you need to do is give them a new name. Then log out for 5 min and your new ID is set. And it looks that everybody is doing it. I have 100000 hands in Pokertracker and all off the sudden find 15-30 games with 9 unknown players. What do you guys think about it?? I want this to stop !!!

Only good players change their names. Won't affect known fish.

That was my first thought too. But it seems to be the other way around. However, i found out that when you put the players in your buddylist at the server , then the player ID will autochange on the list also. It's a lot of work but at least a little help. The good thing is that you can create aliases with Pokertracker. Anyway, i think they should not allow that ; but as long it's ok to do it i also will [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img] change at least once per week.

also.. about pokertracker, i find it's greatest use is to track MY play, not other people's... i don't need to study thousands of hand histories to find out that so and so is a poor player, i know within 5 minutes
