I signed up just now. Originally I tried through Chrome and was advised I'd need to install a plugin or something like that.. When I clicked that, I was advised this thing would have access to sites I've visited and other personal data, so I declined.
I then went through IE and had no issues..
However - when I launched the software, I had many problems, I couldn't verify my account as the software would just 'lock-up' and not go passed the submit code screen.
I believe (correct me if I am wrong Mr.Rep) the software is somewhat browser-based.. I then tried launching the software by going through IE (not-default browser) again and clicking the 'play now' button from their website - this launched the software and I was then able to complete the registration/verification process.. Awaiting bonus now.

But you are talking about the poker room download? After doing the first download, it asks you to do another, is that it? You are saying you didn’t got to the part of registering your account, is that why you consider it a fake? I never downloaded that room, but you are talking about a bonus, so I believe it’s a BRM bonus, am I right? I saw it is also available for my country, but I still haven’t had the chance to try it, which I will definitely do, but if BRM offers this opportunity, I don’t believe it’s a fake. If so, I am sure BRM will quickly look at this situation and advice all of us, if not, maybe your Pc already have a virus that is not allowing you to do this correctly.

Cliffs: Don't use chrome. IE seems to work OK.
That's odd. I'm forwarding this to our team so it doesn't happen again. Thank you for trying Kingdom of Poker, despite the inconveniences you experienced. I promise you once you get to the tables there's no problems, just great action.

Posted by hedgerocker: Hi guys! what about trackers? PO/HM/PT? do they work there? what about traffic?
We are working on support with all the stat tracking software. Traffic has been picking up lately. Yes, there wasn't much when the site first debuted, as is to be expected. We are getting many new sign-ups and we expect a lot more to be forthcoming.
------------
Posted by rbdflyboy: No traffic and I mean 0...no tourneys either? Can't have started up yet. There's freerolls everyday...can't register...not listed? Needs to turn the switch...On. That many Asians can't be sleeping all this time.
Just logged in...two tables goning...no tournment listing...SnG's are out of reach...more time I guess. After research...near as I can tell (there's not much info) they launched round Jan/2007. By the comments I've read so far...nothing has changed...what u see is what u get.
There will be five freerolls every single day starting on January 1st. You can see them listed in the tournament lobby now. Traffic has been picking up at different times of the day, and we expect it to really be picking up in the coming weeks.
Also, we launched two days ago...so, not quite 2007
Thanks for the speedy reply, ndb, and info. The info I posted here I found from an Int search, mostly comments made on other forums back in '07. At one forum they posted a screen shot of the lobby and it's a perfect likeness. Regardless, changes may have occured since and we're here now. Thanks again

The Plug-In is provided by Google, not us. It's made because Google doesn't work with Microsoft's OneClick technology.
I should clarify - I realise the Chrome-extension was provided by Google itself, however - the notice you receive is not a good one. Basically, it takes you to the Chrome Extension download page and there is a little pop-up explaining that this extension will have access to personal data and explicitly states web sites you've visited.
So even though it's not a Kingdom thing, you should probably seek an alternative that doesn't require this, because I assure you - anyone using chrome is going to feel a bit uneasy about it.
If you want I can provide a more detailed description of the Client issue I was experiencing.. here:
Basically - when I clicked cashier it came up with the verification window, however when I entered my email-code and clicked submit nothing would happen - well actual, the mouse-cursor would spin for awhile and then eventually go back to the standard cursor and nothing ever happened.
I then tried clicking the 'send another email' and it took me to a screen to verify my email again and then there was a button to send another verification code / email - this button also done nothing (I never received another email).
I tried exiting the software a couple times and coming back, but it was the same.
The eventual solution as I say was to launch it from within Internet Explorer from the Kingdom website.
Now - please note : Google Chrome is my default browser and I did NOT install the extension. So if the desktop launch icon for Kingdom loads part of the client up via windows default browser, maybe this is the problem.
Since verifying my account I *HAVE* been able to launch the client from the desktop icon and have played around a little, without problems. Although - will give a better report once I've got the NDB.

This is exactly what happened to me - see post above.
My advise is to load their website through Internet Explorer and launch the client from within that - worked for me.
------------ edit: mine appeared 'stuck' at 10% also (on the window bar).

You know what I'm gonna give it one more go. Try to get this beast of a system to load up that download... Every other time I've tried it has something that stops it from getting very far. But id love to try it. I'm hoping that i can get the bonus in a day lmfao that be nice I'm running quite low on my pkr account and I have to place today at 5 est in brm freeroll or else I'm not gonna have the slightest chance of qualifying for my dream tournament.... the ten million dollar Sunday million.

Posted by KingdomRep: Jessthehuman, thank you for taking the time to provide us such valuable feedback. I've forwarded your post on to Kingdom Of Poker.
Rest assured, we're working hard on these issues, because our goal is to provide an enjoyable gaming experience for everyone at Kingdom of Poker.
I've noticed a few other smaller things, but also one major bug - Sometimes my hole cards 'disappear'. Like literally they just aren't showing any more and as far as I can tell there is just no way to make them visible again. This has happened on maybe 3-4 hands so far, over about 4 hours worth of play.
In each instance when I've clicked fold (not knowing what my cards were) they've momentarily popped up as I am folding. In all instances my hole cards have appeared as normal for the next hand..
I think it has only happened when I've been viewing websites when the hands are dealt, as such - I've no idea whether they were originally showing or not when the hand is first dealt. All times I came back to the window when it was my turn to act and I couldn't see my hole cards. So possibly some kind of browser-focus bug. Obviously I'm really not to sure, but it's definitely always been when I've been looking at websites when the hand was dealt.
