Hello everyone and welcome to the new PKR.com website! It’s arguably the single most important day since PKR’s launch and with it our ship has come in. As the hosts of the world’s best poker community, we’re ready to step it up. No longer will you struggle to find a friend or fishy foe, nor be the last to hear of your friend’s big win. No more will you wonder where to post pictures of your newborn, or that smashed laptop. And gone are the days of badbeat threads in the PKR Lounge.
Over the coming months, we’ll be working hard to make our community the toast of online poker; a place to share (and empathise with) the highs and lows of poker. What you see today is just the beginning - we aim to move in new directions, and bring in innovations for the future to enrich your online poker experience. Keep your eyes peeled and your ears to the ground…
But what new community features have appeared with our latest release? Check out some of our favourites below;
My PKR
Choose what news you see each day, track your friends and what they’re up to, who’s won the latest big tournament, or who’s got the latest forum beef! My PKR should change the way you keep us in the loop too. Enjoy status updates beamed instantly to your friends, personal messaging and all the account, friends and ranking stats you need. Some say it’s Facebook meets PKR meets the 21st Century. Call it what you like, we call it pure entertainment!
News & Events
The first area you should check each morning! From daily tournament reports to Player of the Month, audio clips from your favourite players to interviews with our most successful poker sharks – like a community Christmas stocking, the PKR News & Events area will have it all…
Forum – new & improving!
It’s been a while in the making, but as of today, our forum lives will change forever. From ease of use to innovate new sections, we hope that over the coming months your forum activity is more rewarding, more diverse and more PKR!
- Images! You can now directly post images (see new Forum Guidelines)
- Advanced search including posts by player/date
- New arrivals! Extended Strategy areas, Team Pro, The Tilt Room and more
- Reply to & quote specific posts
- Rate threads (1 to 5 stars)
- See latest forum posts from your friends (see My PKR page)
Note: Stage 1 of PKR’s domination of the forum world is complete, but we have plenty of new features planned for the coming weeks and months, so fear not – if there’s anything you’d like to see changed or added, it might be on the way! Be sure to leave your comments on the new forum in the Feedback & Suggestions Section.
Anyway, there’s a whole new community section to run – we’ll see you in there!
