    and the location comes up as UNITED STATES. really narrows it down!

    cant fathom the rationale behind this change.

    please consider going back to the old way of cities! or maybe a cool new idea, fuck it even copy ULTIMATE BET and do first name. ehgljkdshgljkdsh

    NOTE: sorry if A) this is a report or B) stars has changed this (ive been on vacation and not playing any pokers for a week)

    they did it, because people got tired of looking at things like 'GOFKURMUTHER' as a location, when i play against people... i wanna know they can actually withdraw their money to a real location.

    I love the new option on the tables where you can see the country instead of the town / location.

    Its only realllly annoying when making transfers...

    Please add the first letter of the person his city in there as well. Like FTP does.... Will make less future mistakes.

    That's all...

    stars should use the persons image! This is more unique than first name or city.

    I've always thought everyone should have a unique number just for transfer confirmation windows. The problem with countries, cities, city names, avatars, etc is that a scammer can always copy it if they pick a name that is similar to a well-known guy in the hopes of getting some errant transfers.

    Let's say in your cashier you just have a number like 84882328 listed there as your transfer confirmation number. So someone would put in your name and then the transfer confirmation number would pop up like the city/country/etc pops up now. You'd confirm with your friend that you have the right transfer confirmation number and then you'd just hit send. That way you wouldn't be thrown off by a character, spaces, etc because a scammer wouldn't be able to choose their transfer confirmation number and theoretically the numbers would be wildly different.

    Thoughts?
