    Was it the old, "ur a di ck" ... "ur mum loves di ck"....."my mums dead"  scenario, likelihood is none of the statements were true, apart from maybe the first en! lol Take it with a pinch of salt. DOHH

    I think you are missing the point, banter or the odd bit of abuse i can handle. However pure outright nasty abuse is bang out of order. The player wasnt even at the table they even admitted that they only came onto the table to abuse one of the players. There is no place on sky poker for players who's only intention is to abuse other players.

    And as regards to what was said, lets put it this way, it went along the lines off

    "she is probebly dead because i put too much **** in her mouth"

    So if you think this is harmful banter, you are just as bad

    If you have reported it to customer services something will be done about it.
    They are not miracle workers who can act immediately. They have to go through the chat and then act accordingly.
    Some of the chat is downright abusive and needs to be stopped.

    totally agree this is out of order, not even playing and giving abuse, its like on line stalking or cyber bullying, sky should name and shame these players, ban them and tell them where to stick there money, pubs and clubs and shops and the like would so why is this any different
  • edited December 2009

    Well it is harmless banter, its childish pathetic and my biggest critisism or it is its bloody boring! Not harmful though.

    Nice post Loonytoons. Totally agree, If these people want to dish It out they should be exposed. They hide behind their keyboards making what should be a fun experience into an ordeal for some.
  • edited December 2009

    If the Player said what was reported, action WILL be taken.

    But it's not "instant" - in the interests of fairness, they cannot take your word for it, they have to go through the Chat Logs first, then someone has to decide what action is required.

    Such comments will NEVER be acceptable on this Site, but also, justice needs to be handled with care to ensure it's meted out correctly.

    I have to admit i have calmed down quite a bit, to all that replyed thank you (with 1 exception).

    like i said before harmless banter i can handle, but pure extreme abuse really p****** me off.

  • edited December 2009

    NP! wether u appreciate my reply or not, theres 2 ways to deal with it, get all wound up, probably start playing differently (badly), get down about it, moan, start a thread here etc etc, or just ignore it and report it later.

    I know which en Id rather do.

    The player in question never put me off my game, but im sorry a sky poker member who's their only purpose on that table is to abuse other players is wrong, sorry but if you feel that is "banter" your the same as DOHHH.

    The player in question was extremely rude and disgusting. And to be honest if it was you or DOHHH and this person said this to you face to face im 10000% sure your response would be different to "its alright its banter"

    ED i totally agree with you, it's unacceptable behaviour but some people are abusive regardless online and i know there would be repercussions if face to face,but don't rise to their lower level!

    Im not rising to any level, im just airing my opinion on fellow SKY POKER MEMBERS abusing other members for no reason which IS WRONG....

    Like i said before "banter" is fine and to be honest i enjoy it (its part of the game), however ABUSE is different..

    It seems that some players see this as acceptable, i however and 99% of the sky poker community members see this is UNACCEPTABLE.

    Thanx Dav, I just want to clarify though....that I don't think these comments are acceptable at all. I have never used that word throughout this thread.

    I just think you're gonna get it all over, whatever poker site you play on. Its gonna be part of your poker playing experience, wether that be right or wrong. I'd try and use it to my advantage. The players obviously tempramental - (is that spelt right merenovice? more help with my english please.lol) he's getting wound up upset or frustrated, all of which r an advantag to me as his oppo. If there was a buddy list on sky like other sites I wud immediately 'befriend' him and follow him round. Easy money.

    Just to state again, I do not think the language and abuse given by this fella is right or acceptable, I just think there are easier ways to deal with it than to kick up a fuss and get upset by it.

    Let the 1diots come on, splash their 20 quid about abit, throw some abuse out when it goes wrong, and log off - 20 quid worse off!

    DOHH

    As I said earlier in the Thread, action will be taken where appropriate, & I have sent the Thread to Suit-Ville.

    Meanwhile, you should deal directly with Customer-Care in the first instance, as you correctly did.

    Have a great weekend man.

    Your wrong an your right dohhhhhh ( however many H's in ya name ;) ) your right in the fact that yes you can take this dilbert's money all day long because he is just gonna be all over the place. Your wrong in the fact that it is easier to deal with it in that way. You an i are experienced people and like a lot of other people on the site would ignore it to a point an use it to our advantage. Now look at it from this point view ....

    A new customer has just signed up to sky and is hitting the tables for the first time and enjoying the experience. The new customer finds themselves at the table with this dilbert and plays well wins a bit of money an then starts getting all this abuse! firstly it is gonna put the new customer off and make them leave the site for good and, secondly starts giving not only sky poker a bad name but all of US that use the tables the same bad name too.

    There is a certain etiquette to playing poker and the abuse the dibert dished it out is not part of it. Just because we sit in the confines of our homes and play the game we love on our PC's does not make this a tolerable situation. People like this should not only be chat banned but banned from using the site. We have a very good crowd on this site and a bunch of very good poker players. I for one would like to keep it that way.

    If that had been live game in a casino, the dilbert would of been ejected straightaway, so what's the difference from playing online?. From a personal point of view had that been a live game an i had been with him at the tables .... let's just say he would of been eating his food through a straw for a long time and finding it very difficult to write his own name!! Poker is a truly great game and should be played in the right way as well as showing your opponents respect.

    Well its not a live game, its an online game. Its not a nob whos in ya face mouthing off, its words on a screen in a tiny little chatbox. So much easier to deal with and ignore.
