Sky - please stop spamming the tables

I was just in the middle of a session and am sat on 9 tables when a message comes up on each and every table informing of the £11 bounty hunter thats about to start.

Please dont spam every table Sky if i want to play the £11 bounty hunter let me go to the lobby and register...if people are not entering the tourney and you think they cant find where to register then improve the lobby rather than shoving a message in my face on every table.

also, on a technical note my Skypoker completely crashed less than a minute after the message was brought up on every table.

i dont mind if its on chat but to put a message that needs to be responded to on every table is a joke and difficult to deal with when multi tabling

    i've moaned numerous times about this yet still they keep doing them when obviously they're extremely annoying/inconvenient

    they didn't even have a timer on these ones so they'll be there forever till you click close, that's really something i want to be doing on 10tables

    Agreed, put it in chat if you must, but not a pop up when you could be multi tabling with no time to react

    I think we need a pop up to warn us of these pops up so we're ready to click close on 9 tables.

    This pop up was massive though, much bigger than the usual ones.

    I still don't think you'd lose a pot because of it but it's just a little annoying.

    Oh I didn't think you could press teh action buttons before closing the popup, Still though, they often block the community cards which could be detrimental with 10+ tables going

    Its the one thing on sky i really dislike!

    Don't want reminders of tournaments on cash tables. I PLAY CASH! Why would i want to be told about MTT's?

    Don't want anything in chat box other than chat thanks! Does'nt really affect me cos i am in mini most of the time.

    Even in mini you get reminders. Just stop it please. I am a bit OCDish and need to clear them out of the way so it pesses me off when multi tabling.

    One more moan. When posting on the forum and a reminder pops up, it wont let me click 'Done' mid post so have to start again. Again, really tilting when you are half way thru a big post in the clinic or something. 

    I have seen threads like this before and nothing happens! C'mon sky, your making enough money, stop spamming please, we dont want it!
