Some people have no respect or class.
I am so disappointed after playing on the site this evening. A player who I will leave unnamed was so rude and his friend who was watching but not playing were both unnecessarily rude and then had the classless style to be offensive when I was knocked out a little later. Will never be coming back to this site and believe my son when he says that this site is a disgrace and not worth wasting money on. So riled that this kind of behaviour is allowed and openly accepted. He said he is a regular player on here so I guess he can get away with it. I had heard the regulars get special treatment but didn't know it was taken to extremes like this. First and last post.

It's not accepted from any player.
Get a grip.
you can switch chat off if you like but..... you really have to learn, deep down inside not to care, whilst simultaneously wanting to win even if circumstances won't allow.
and if it's too boring to grasp that now you will do later anyway.
people only play this game to exploit the ignorance of their competitors for mindless cash that they probably spend on food or bills.
rock'n'roll
Seriously get a grip do you think the world if full of nice people, teddy bears, pretty flowers and rainbows! If you can't hack a bit of stick in a chat box on a poker site you don't have much backbone. If he said something that offended you just report him.
Jesus, some people are unreal.
Like Dohhhhhhh says its seems to have gone both ways. Please remember that respect is not a god given right it has to be earned and I have never known Unbpower to be anything but curteous at the table.
But you are right about him being a clueless muppet. He's from Yorkshire.
Just turn it off or ignore, only text )
i have NEVER understood why people think poker is a social game.
it's pretty much the most anti-social game going. it's about as social as boxing but with money instead.
don't believe me ? then how come poker players have to be encouraged to seek out other poker players for company because 'it's important for the development of their game to find people to discuss hands with'.
jeez how sad is that ?
Seriously though, the fun to be had in live sit and goes with Team Knight Poker and co. is just brilliant... serious poker is about grinding for money yes, but i am a strong believer in the fun factor also, and i think it's possible to have a balance between the two...
Just because someone is a serious grinder doesnt mean they have to be a miserable so and so..
Poker is a social game, unless your name is Borinloner

sorry i didn't realise. for years now i've been under the delusion that poker is about exploiting peoples ignorance in an attempt to take their money and that is where the only pleasure lies.
i'm truly relieved that Team Knight Poker have sorted all that out. there was i really believing that poker players just pretend to have friends in the game.
If you have a go at somebody expect it back as you would in real life, surprised the thread is still open. Unbpower has always been a nice guy at the tables so should not have to defend himself on here.
if u do play with your chat box on...
you will get just that,chat,some nice,mainly nice i would say,and sometimes as arguably in this case,not so nice.
you have that choice to keep it on or turn it off.
it,s also about give and take.
if u can,t take it,just turn it off.
as mentioned,this goes on whichever site u play on.
end of...
move on.

If you berate someone's play it winds them up, if you wind them up then they are going to bite back. Unbpower has always been a gent from my experience.
Drop it and move on........
'Tis true though. Out of the SPT and straight home. Why would I stick around to speak to all those horrible poker folks... about a game I love... and could probably improve in if I did talk about it.... Why would I do that? Makes no sense.
I'm not getting involved with the original post. I want people to like me.
