I think there should be a Suggestion Box where we can leave our suggestions, in how to improve this great site -- making it better. Maybe it's here but I think there should be a Suggestion Box of some sort. To name a few things I'd like to see or hear comments on are: 1) Should only the Host be able to Remove someone from a table? What happens when they don't exit the site and leave everyone at the table hanging -- waiting to call a yellow to have them removed. Or worse yet, when they are the ones that should be removed from a table. There are a lot of folks here that only play as the host so they have this unfair privilege -- booting people left and right! 2) HELP ME FIND A GAME is a nice feature but why not have a programmer create a VARIABLE called USER STATED SKILL LEVEL and let the software find a match for him/her? The program would then look for a match to find someone available with the same skill-level.

1) Problem # 1: Dummies are sending question marks and critical messages to their partners during the hand. Or they are telling Declarer to claim prematurely. Dummies seem to forget they are the only ones to see all the hands I guess? Proposed Fix: Mute the dummies! 2) Problem #2: Recently I visited a table when there were several Kibitzers on hand. The declarer was making stupendous plays when I noted the radio button for ALLOW CHAT WITH KIBITZERS was activated. To remove my suspicions I kindly asked the Host to deactivate this feature that shouldn't be there in the first place in my opinion. He made it clear to me his loyalties were to the Kibs and not his opponents denying my request. Yes of course I left but come on; should this feature ever be fair since we all know Kibs are in the habit of saying something when they have the chance to do so. This is especially unfair since they see all four hands. Proposed Fix: Why is the Host empowered to control features that anyone at the table should have a voice in? By default ALLOW CHAT WITH KIBITZERS is always ON and should have a default setting to be in the OFF position. Problem #3: People keep asking for resets, play a few hands and then leave as though their whole purpose was to visit as many tables as they can and ask for resets so they can move onto the next table. I swear this is more fun to some than the actual game is. Proposed Fix: Allow individuals to have their own running tallies since so many seem to put so much emphasis on score rather than on the hands they play.
