Hi, Robbie...
If you look, there should be three 'adjustment settings' on the bottom of the bedroom poles. Always make sure, when pitching your tent, that the poles are set at their lowest, ie: the 'spring button' is engaged into the top one of the three holes. That way, you won't be putting excessive pressure on the joints when pitching (which may be the reason for the breakage). I've tried to engage the bedroom poles, into the feet of the main poles, while they're set high and it really does put a lot of pressure on the 'auto joints'. I soon found the lowest setting on the bedroom poles alleviates this problem. You can always adjust the pole higher, if the bedroom material looks a little loose... The adjustment is there should you be pitched on 'uneven ground' one side can be set higher or lower to counter the uneveness...
