FIX Autobet for once & for all

[ByteMeTwice]

 

I don't know how many people have noticed this :

1) Every time there's an update or scheduled maintenance, Autobet breaks down & doesn't get fixed for weeks. (notice to Stake, please don't give me the usual drivell about clearing my cache etc. This is not the problem !!).

2) This is extremely annoying that you can't leave, even for a welfare break, because autobet will have stopped when you come back.

3) when starting autobet, you define a base bet, to which betting reverts to when player may have selected revert to base on win etc.  Players need to be vigilant that if autobet stops & you restart it, the base bet is reset to the bet bet level at where you were when the autobet stopped.  E,g. you have set your base bet at $1 with a 50% raise on loss, you're 2nd bet after loss is $1.50 & 3rd Bet is $2.25 etc.

Suppose autobet stops on 3rd bet and you click restart, your base bet is now $2.25 And can grow exponentially depending how many bets you had before the autobet stopped.

This quickly becomes extremely expensive & player soon find themselves unwittingly betting at levels they're not comfortable wtih, can't afford & lose their whole balance without realising what the hell went on !!

If, this happens, which I have fallen foul off on several instances, support will politely tell you where to go if asking for a refund. you will be told in exception or circumstance is it stakes fault and you are solely responsible for the size of your bets.

4) I'm being the devil's advocate here : is this why it takes weeks to fix ??
