This problem can only be solved by implementing anonymous tables or giving the opportunity to the players to change their nickname regulary.
Both of those are terrible ideas, that create a whole array of other problems, especially anonymous tables. The behaviour, which you exprienced on CoinPoker, can easily be prevented by a simple "play requirement", which both GG Poker and pokerstars now have. If someone sit at a cash table on those sites but then stand up again without playing 10 hands (unless the table is empty of course), they are prevented from joining new tables for a certain amount of time.

For the record I dont like at all, that sites have policies about "bum hunting", because its so subjective, what that even mean, and sites mix the term up with table selection, which is a natural part of cash games. But if you choose to play on a site, that has such a policy, it should not come as a surprice, that they enforce it, when someone complain about you following them from table to table. Which by the way it is just common sense to not do, even if a site dont have specific rules about it. Its basically the same as continuing to hit on a woman, even though the have repeatedly made it clear to you, she is not interested.

I think they should go the complete opposite way, once someone sits, they are playing HU4Rollz or 20,000 hands and once the hand limit is reached the person losing gets to decide if they go for another 20,000. And of course they can have a buy-out clause.

As they say, "If you can't take the heat, go to the 7-max tables."

Did you even read my post? I moved on from bumhunters to talk about dataminers.
Instead of addressing that, you drop the same lazy take and get cheers from your usual brain-dead fan club.

So either you didn't read, you didn't understand, or you're part of the problem.
Maybe you're SickOstrish himself, or one of those cheaters buying hands from some Russian websites.

Read first. Think second. Post third.
