    I would say that you would be missed.
    However, I imagine that Sky HAVE to take action when people are repeatedly making (even veiled) threats of physical violence.
    It's not very pleasant and certainly not very mature.

    Hi everyone, Just to let you know where we stand on this. We can’t discuss any actions taken against individuals on the forum as this is between us and the player involved.

    All I would say is that we have strict house rules because we want this Community to be a friendly place for open discussion. We don’t want anyone to be intimidated on here and will take action where appropriate.
     
    Thanks,
    Steve M

    Hi Delta,

    As I said, we won't be commenting on either player.
  • edited August 2009
    I'm not going to comment on what either player has done, but I just wanted to say that I am glad that Sky has rules, Can you imagine the chaos and extremely vile comments that could be posted on these forums or even while we are playing.

    Hi Mackem,   hmmm 
    well i for one am sorry to hear  this, Mickjenn has been a great source of entertainment and has helped a lot of players with his answers to poker related questions..
     I have been following some of the things that have been said between these two, personally i think Scotty is a bit naive and arrogant, from what ive heard he's like that playing live as well !!  (The Phil Hellmuth School of poker comes to mind ) and Mick has taken the bait and let his emotions spill over on to this forum ....
    The thing is,  this is a public forum and has to be monitored and if people come to read threads and they see this kind of squabbling going on  what are they to think.
    I'm all for having a laugh but this was getting beyond a joke, my sympathies are with Mick as i think he was being goaded but there was a nastiness in the posts that nobody wants to read'

    What we must remember is there are not many poker sites that have a forum where the players can go back too and talk about the games and have a community built around the TV show and Poker stories.

    What we don't want is the whole forum arguing and threats being made, that can only result in 'The Suite's' saying."We don't need this nonsense" and pull the plug on the forum..!!  
    It happened on Ladbrokes with their forum,(they closed that for the same reason)  so it's up to us, if we want this one then lets keep to having a laugh and enjoying the poker and the feed back with TV shows with the many good threads we have here !!!

     glk  all Benny  ... "Lets take it easy out there"..

      Hi Dad you and me both have let the family down. I apologised have you. ?  You allowed this person to find your achilles heal and get you banned after all the hard work your friends put in to get you reinstated. It's a long way back now you've been switched off at the mains.  I am disapointed as I was looking forward to your help with my poker play I hope you can still play on the tables as this site needs all the players it can get in these troubled times. We may be naughty boys but remember were IMPORTANT. your ever loving son.

    I do not know why Mick did not click the ignore button like i did and suggested when he got the chat ban
    Everyone knows what he is like

    I would suggest that they all do it, completely agree with you on this Benny

    Although it is possible to antagonise someone into making remarks using threatening and abusive comments, without using any yourself and therefore not falling foul of the code.

    Sad day, Mick went along way to getting this forum going in my opinion. Also a really nice lad but he took the bait from the school snitch! Rules are rules though and we need to move on. Hopefully Mick if your out there keep in touch buddy.

    Tough jsustice Mick.
    I started the tread last night and sympathise.
    \i came close to rising to sNotty's digs so I guess it could have been me.
    Hope you are back soon.

    The amount of people making a witchunt on these forums for one person is starting to disgust me.

    Leave Sky deal with it and stop stirring things up because one of your mates got a ban.

    Scotty is the type of person who can say anything and everything when behind a keyboard, but face to face, could'nt even look you in the eye.

    Lee, you can't continue to carry on like this.  Sky Poker does not bend and lie about the rules to suit the situation.  By all means send me any emails and live chat trascripts and I will review them - but in the interim please keep within the spirit that the forum was provided for. 

    Thanks,

    Des.

      Hi Dad   Your friends are finding it difficult to justify your actions. No one wants to lose a leg in this mine field, when I said come out fighting I didn't mean it literally you've taken a sucker punch and [they've] had to call for the stretcher.  To be fair to Sky [ and you know I've been on their case to give you another chance they did give you more rope trouble is you hung yourself with it.] What way back for the come back kid. Again Sky could have cremated you but to their credit have just buried you.  R.I.P.    You are still in Archives still the Champ with the longest Thread trouble is it was your scissor that cut that thread. I'm in mourning for lost dad. Strange to click on community and not to see you [Mickjenn1 friendly banter good tips] top of the list. You've made me an Orphan again with nowhere to go this time it's DOCTOR BARNARDO'S for me.     long lost son.!!!!!   Quote.   If you can keep your head when all around you are losing theirs your a far far better man than I Gunga Din.    GL Mick your ever loving son.

    Well said, and a good post.. spot on m8.

    Yeah you cannot even say d a m n or h e l l in the chatbox.

    You can take things too far.

    The last time I checked you have to be OVER 18 to register on this site. We are all adults so why not apply adult rules and regs?

    Fair enough, threats etc are out of order but the rest???!!!

    Come on.
