I would just like to say pokerstars have completely taken the enjoyment out of poker for me. Should be renamed strokerstars jokerstars or fraudstars. Big

I completely agree, out of every single poker site I am a member of and play frequently I now play jokerstars the least, it is the most pathetic poker site available not to mention the people who play on there are a complete disgrace to poker

I disagree. PS has some downright idiots because it is a huge brand but that is generally good especially in cash games. In tournaments it can be horrible getting it AI with KK against 62s or whatever and losing but that's the nature of the beast.
Other sites offer different things but for traffic PS is unchallenged.

I tend to agree that on lower limits you can find tons of donks that have absolutely no idea about poker.
But on higher limits NL/PL 25 or more you can find good competition and of course good traffic which is pretty important. But on freerolls and micros is indeed a bingo frenzy.
My point is I have really tried to improve my game. I can only speak of my experience but I am finding it impossible to do so there. Dumb ass beat after dumb ass beat. Stats just don't add up which affects my rating as a player.

But traffic isn't the only factor, which attract people for tables... I know that the PS is most popular, biggest, etc etc... But it has more jokes than any other...

Hmm mate it is always sad to hear that people are getting a bad times a pokerstars, but I am sure if you joined other rooms too, you will get suck out from time to time and it will hurt. Well mate this is poker and Variance is part of the game.
If you cannot deal with variance and it affects your life and your head, it is better not to play poker at all. One thing about pokerstars they have a huge pool of players at the micro limits and you should be able to win there if you studied the game of poker enough.
The more work you put on your poker game, the luckier you will get and you will complain afterwards that pokerstars is rigged in your favor.
Hope you get back in the game or just changes rooms if you tilting over pokerstars!
I put a lot of work on my game and the one thing I don't rely on is luck. You figure out the math and play the odds in your favour unless I am wrong. Thing is those odds don't add up on fraudstars. Stay lucky buddy

Online poker is generally a suckout machine...Donk protection at every site and they say us we can win longtome with the right moves- never! Nearly every Pro(!!!) are bankrupt or generate no winnings longtime.

Sounds like you are totally fed up with this site. Why dont you join another site and there are so many sign up bonuses available you can almost play for free and you will soon get the enjoyment back. Winning is always nice but enjoyment is the main aim
