    oops sorry put it on too early,

    The response the guy got was "i hope your mum gets raped"

    Now im sorry but i think that is totally out of order, the poor guy on the end of it said its ok i get worse at work but thats really not the point. I know ppl get stressed when they lose chips but god surely we can aviod nasty vicious comments like this.

    Hi Emma

    Yes, nobody should have to put up with abuse, can I suggest you contact Customer Care, the guy may not want to take it further, but he will probably do it again if not stopped, oh and im multi tasking again :), lol you obviuosly posted while I was typing :)

    Hi Stoxy

    Thanks for letting customer care know about this. As you say, people do get stressed but comments like that are unnecessary and not what we want to see on the sky poker tables.

    Regards,
    Steve

    Aup Stoxy, Ive seen this sort of thing happen quite alot on other sites, not so much since moving to sky, thats an honest comment too. Maybe coz its a smaller site? but it does seem to monitored and punished alot more here than elsewhere. 

    Personally it goes straight over my head, they can chirp away all day long to/about me If anything it makes me focus more. But I understand it's gonna upset alot of people, and shouldn't be accepted you're right. All I can say is try not to let it stop you enjoying your game, they will be dealt with, hope it didn't upset you too much. Just look at it as words on a screen, they're 1diots.

    Well done for reporting it, he'll be chat banned v soon.

    DOHH

    Friendly banter on a table is one thing but that was well out of order. Well done for reporting it to cuatomer services.

    I find it amusin, because it usually means you have the oppo right where you want him, on life tilt!!!!

    Just laugh it off, stivk to your game and reap the rewards when he tries to 3 barrel you with 3 high and when they are broke just put.....'GG GL'

    That will def pee them off, and maybe even force them to reload ;)

    the actual comment is not as bad as how worrying it is that someones mind is as twisted as that to feel that that is a suitable insult.

    Its people like this that you read about in papers coz theyve walked into their school with a gun and gone crazy.

    comments like this puts them in a different league from obnoxious, rude or arrogant. 

    They are just plain weird
