    RAKEBACK!!!!! Why do people play for anything other than micro stakes without any rakeback? Especially when 99% of online poker rooms offer in the region of 30% rakeback?  More value for points!   Points are pretty worthless as they are now. More freerolls. A small time bank (additional 15-30 seconds) that a player can choose to use when needed. Once used, its only refilled after say 5 minutes or 5 hands. Better hand history/downloadable hand history. More 10max tables. More cash tables. Decrease max buy in amount for micro stakes. Its very off putting to play at micro stakes when someone sits down with £10 and calls every hand, every street, and pushes all in on the river. Earlier start times for larger tourny's.

    Agree with this.....

    100 BB limit is spot on!

    In Response to Re: What improvements would you make to the site? : Completely agree. In fact this has been suggested previously but (I personally feel) has been ignored. Apparently bigger max buy ins is what the majority of micro stake punters want but I disagree. I play a fair amount of 4/8 & 5/10 cash and hate the fact that someone can sit down at 5/10 with £20. If I wanna play with £20 then I go play 10/20. Besides, as far as I can tell (I only play on 1 other site) every other site has a cash buy in limit of 100BB unless it specifically states it's a deep stack table.

    Agree with this..... 

    Does Sky take any notice of this, and are there any plans for any of these changes???

    Resizable tables- small to full screen [like FT]
    Better points
    More freerolls- & register hour or 2 before so players are available not away!
    Stop the laggigng n freezing n timing out [propa timer/number countdown not that bar that moves at dif speeds]

    Have just read a bit about the Avatars that was posted last year, new to the site and this is first time to read these posts. I think improved Avatars would be great, I feel we are very limited in the ones on offer, why can't there be more?

    Definitely more cash tables, esp. at lower stakes, I can't ever get on to play!!

    I agree, also there should not be scope for some players to have seats at more than one table if others are waiting who have no seat!!

    still beats me how 2 and 3 outers r hit on the river so often surely if it were random this wouldn happen so much.

    Believe me, if this site was rigged, I'd have lost every penny as Sky must hate me.

    I have been banned from the chat
    I get angry on here
    I call the number for customer services angrily regularly

    You need to improve your game methinks!

    Can we have longer when we have sat out before we are kicked of the table?

    Seems to me that when I have sat out  the amount of time given varies.

    Can we have at least say 5 mins before we get kicked of the table?

    Some sort of optional limiter on what levels you can play, like the cool off function where you can stop yourself playing but for specific levels to aid bankroll management...

    I decided late last week I'd start off with £10.. play 30p/55p and 60p sit n go's and when I get to 50 buy-ins for the next buy-in up, I'd raise the stakes.
    But 2 or 3 dodgy beats in a row and variable odd's rattle round in my head, and its off to a higher stake to attempt to keep the trend going up, because surely I can't lose 4 in a row?!
    So far I've been lucky and won both of the higher staked games I've played, but the whole point of leaving 50bb's is to allow for a bad streak of beats..

    I am certain I'm not alone when it comes to very poor bankroll management! as it is so easy to enter a STT that only requires one more player to start, and while entering thinking if I win this I'm back on course towards my target..

    If some whiz could come up with a very complex function that only allows you to play in games that you set yourself for a period of time, or until you reach a number in your bankroll, I'm sure I would and everyone else interested in serious bankroll management would be grateful!

    for example.. if I decide I only want to play at 60p or below levels for 4 weeks unless my bankroll = £57.50 (50 1.15 buy-ins).. it becomes impossible for me to play games above 60p for 4 weeks, unless my bankroll is sufficient enough to move up to the next level! 

    A lot to ask for possibly a little problem but would help the fight the greedy side in most of us and promote better bankroll management on the site

    A quicker way to sit out and leave a cash table, every time i sit out and close the table it popps up again and so i havto wait til the current hand is over before exiting.

    in cash games to have a a few 50bb minimum tables coz i hate playing with short stackers.

    A "remember buy in amount" button would be great in cash and a quicker way to top up to that amount after gettin a bad beat lol

    Lastly a time bank would be great those extra seconds could be crucial in making the correct decision (not a long time bank mind!) 
     

    THANK YOU SKY!!

    I've played on many other sites in the past, mainly on stars, and the 1 thing i would change about this 1 is the inability to go full screen, or drag it to the side to do the screen split on Windows 7.

    Just a small comment. I would like to be able to use emoticons!I'm new to the site and find it quite good. I'm not sure I'd like to add more time i.e. time banks-unless it was for a shorter period than a minute-maybe 15/20 seconds. As for the avatars-I agree you should be able to download your own pictures. Thanks. I apologise if this is repeating what someone else has written.GL
