im of the thinking if you dont like sky then dont play on the site, no good twining but for the past couple of months ive stopped enjoying my poker, been winning aswell so that makes it even stranger, i just thought i needed a break but after playing elswhere lately ive realised its not me its sky im fed up with, night after night of rubbish tournaments has just took its toll on me and after a change of sites i feel ready to play away til my hearts content.
its such a shame aswell because ive played here since 2008 and given 95% of my play to sky and ive made decent coin from the site so i cant complain and if it wasnt for sky poker tv id have never gotten any better but until sky provide a decent schedule of mtts i think i will only be playing selcted tournaments on here from now on and dedicating my time elsewhere. 

any other sky stalwarts feel the same or just me?

    Probably not a bad idea to qualify your arguments.

    What dont you like?

    Whats wrong with the MTTs?

    How would you like to see it improved?

    Maybe then this will be seen as a meaningful post rather than a moan & hence ignored?

    i havent got time to write about mtts on sky to be fair, it would turn into an essay, this is a moan to be fair so il take the critisim but i feel i have right to moan, ive played here for 5 years, why shouldnt i moan if i think somethings not right, if you want to see why i dont like the mtt schedule just take a look in the lobby now, i dont really have to say anything the lobby says it all!!

    It wouldn't be an essay to write one line of what tournaments you are referring to.

    If you point out exactly what you are not happy about it, Sky could take it on board.

    What's the formats you like on other sites? Why not bring that up as a suggestion.

    Well you saw me moaning about mtts. Tbf at least sky have picked up on what I had to say. But I get what your saying. Its like looking for a new partner after youve been divorced, weird but you know you have to move on!

    I would say go an play on other sites, and play the odd one on sky that you do like. That way you get the best of all worlds.

    Nowt wrong with having a moan, I was only pointing out that from your OP there was not a lot to go on to enable anyone to make a meaningful reply.

    What a pointless post.

    Of all the sites I have played on, I consider Sky by far the best at asking for its memberrs opinions and input. Why bother typing that and not bother talking to Sky about your ideas/concerns?

    have a moan if you will - but don't be derogatory as that will just get you forum banned

    provide constructive ideas - there has been various threads recently calling for mtts to be changed, repriced or retimed.

    and if it still isn't working then sure - follow mr gooners advice

    I play around 15 tournaments a day across various sites however with the schedule i would only be looking to play 3 tournaments a week on sky because of the structures which are the £55 bounty hunter,£110 bh and the £55 primo.  The £110 sky roller was also a great structure aswell as was the £33 double stack.  Also the super roller is a great structure and it would be great to have this on every week.  But yea as an mtt grinder there isnt enough tournies with good structures it would be great to see a bigger selection. Also the site really needs antes to come in.

    you did call him a little idiot.......

    his post was blunt but relevant - you are clearly frustrated but your OP was more a moan than a constructive criticism - which you have started to address subsequently
