UPDATE: Dropped Connection Problem at Party/IGM - SOLVED - Page 2

MasterShakes · #11 07-19-2005, 08:03 PM

I actually called Party just a few minutes ago. They acknowledge that lots of people are having problems, but at the same time, they are unwilling to admit responsibility for the problem. They give me the same BS as usual, "disconnections can and will occur..." blah blah blah. In one sentence, they acknowledge that it is a widespread problem, and in the next, they tell me to get in touch with my ISP.

They can't let this go on very long. Casual and professional players alike will take their business elsewhere (namely, Stars).

One more thing and then I'm done... I'm very surprised that this isn't a bigger issue on this forum right now. It seems like it should be the only thing to talk about, given how many here play on party.

Still an issue for me. I'm trying to play off the Empire bonus and have had disconnect problems.

KeysrSoze · #14 07-19-2005, 08:11 PM

Ditto. 4 tabled, 1 would constantly lose connection with 2-8 players every few minutes.

I'm just mad that my 40BB pot I won yesterday wasn't recorded in PT (and I cant find the hand number) because of a disconnect in the middle of the hand. Now if it folded me, there'd be hell to pay [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]

Well, I'm about to find out about hell to pay as it did happen to me where it cost me a pot. I'm waiting for a response from support now, but the situation was I flopped a set in the 30-60 game, we were getting all kinds of bets in on the turn, then suddently the "establishing connection" message comes up. So I wait (as I've done hundreds of times over the last week or so) and it finally does reconnect but instead of having time to act it says I have ONE second to act then it folds me. Simply ridiculous.

Another ditto. Played alright for about 45 min. then the delay/disconnects started.

This began for me on Saturday....have played every day and encountered the same problem each one. That is four days running for this problem at least.

Does that seem right, or did it start even earlier?

Their rather cavalier attitude about this is amazing.

Amazing, yes. Not surprising though, given their history of nearly complete ineptitude.

Tried playing some Stud yesterday and went through two DP's inside of 20 minutes, it was a complete jopke.

Won't play there until the issue is resolved, unfortunately. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]
