Add another gripe to add to the list, the amount of time it takes to re-balance tables in MTTs, it does my head in!

You can be sitting 6 handed & every other tables got 9 & it can go on for ages 

Flushy, with Full Tilt just disable the avatars & choose a blank background, it makes a huge difference as I hate the fussy graphics as well.

i think trebbecca has the best layout for finding games, the best mix of games, just dislike the blind structure, most games end up as 8xbb stack crap shoots

I really like the  Tribecca software. However, I seldom play there these days.  My reasons for this include the fact the tables are so large for my laptop screen. I like to play a couple of STT at the same time and the constant switching around between 2/3 tables is distracting.  My main concern arose from a record I kept over a 14 day period.  I used one of the tribeca sites and compared it with pokerstars for reliability.  On tribeca I had 9 disconnects while playing STT, on pokerstars I had none. As  I have a limited bankroll, I need to have 100% faith in the software I am using.  With Pokerstars, I have confidence it will not cut out on me, but tribeca has let me down so many times a decision had to be made.

I still regard tribeca as one of my favorite sites for appearance, the manager chat option is a great idea as well.  However it has other aspects which don't appeal to me .  I will continue to play at the Blonde site as I feel loyal to the Blonde forum, but tribeca does have it's obvious flaws in my view

I'm confused as to how the discussion got onto a freezeout vs rebuy argument. Each type of tourney requires different play. If you aren't willing to rebuy a few times then there is no advantage in playing a rebuyand you're just adding dead money. If you're normal mtt stakes are say a $10 tourney then if you are going to play a rebuy it shouldnt be more than a $2 entry.

tribecca re buys are great apart from the juice which is disgusting.

I used to hate re buys but now i love them, the play after the re buys with deepstacks is where the real poker happens

I agree that the raked re-buys are poor. Not a defense but they are not the only ones who do this and they're not the most expensive.

Take Paradise for instance where the rake is 'hidden' as they take 9% of the total pot at the end and so in effect are charging 9% of the re-buys and addons too.

I play on tribecca mostly because to be honest it is the site where I have made the most on a consistent basis - I have got used to it I suppose and know the most people there (inc the blondites) which makes it more enjoyable

Re-buys v freezeouts?   Horses for courses!   (This is not a dig at Flushy!)

Yeah its just how small the cards are on Tilt! Twice i have re-raised all in with 89 thinking i had 99.

I stick up for tribeca because i like it, i have played on every major site and IMO it is the best.

Table balancing is being sorted in the next upgrade (i believe) in that the last hand thing will come back aswell.

The extra rake i don't like it but its a price worth paying!

There is an option to click that shows the full card in your hand (rather than the half card that it defaults to. Have you spotted this?

They are still small however.

If the holder of a Pilots License cant see em what chance have the rest of us got?   LOL
