Does anyone else find this ANNOYING!

I was in the $200 tourney last night and down to 13 people and I get booted. When I get back my hand is folded. Within the next 10 minutes I was booted again but this time I got back in time before my hand was folded..BUT I couldn't see my cards because that stupid banner was covering them that said..THIS IS YOUR SEAT. Well DUH! I can see that for myself because it's the seat with the cards FACE UP! By the time I figured out what I had the hand was folded. We are talking huge blinds where every hand counted! It really pissed me off. Is it really necessary for that stupid banner to cover your cards? I did end up winning the tourney, in spite of that stupid little yellow annoucement.

I am lucky that I can get right back in when I get booted but I know that others it takes longer. But I am glad that you ended up winning despite the boot. Congratulations!; ▶ Reply to This

I got back in time but I couldn't see my cards because the banner was covering them that said..this is your seat. I honestly don't see a need for that banner. Obviously, if the cards are face up, it's your seat..lol. Thanks for the congrats!; ▶ Reply to This

Had to rewrite the whole thing and resend it...........Just to get no reply
I also mentioned about the annoying ads on the side......You know......the ones that take forever to open up when you hit them accidentally..... or the way you have to keep clicking into the chat box, when a new hand starts, it's your turn, someone raises.....ect

I even complained about the fact that NLOP is the only site that shows everyone your hand even when you choose not to show..

Yup, " i " complains alot...; ▶ Reply to This

to get anything changed around here.
This issue has been brought up before, elsewhere, to no avail,...I sure hope someone from NLOP
sees this discussion and looks into it, this needs to be fixed.; ▶ Reply to This
