The only thing I have done is remove the names and highlight my chat. Amazing. They also changed my alias without bothering to contact me! I logged in and was playing under a completely different alias, which caused total confusion as you can imagine with a couple of tables popping up and not a clue who I was.

 I had not expected my alias of "masterbaiting" to last long but just to change it without any contact whatsoever!

I asked why I got banned expecting them to refer to another episode but it seems that this torrent of. erm. well. erm, abuse was the reason. The reply.


Dear *****,

Thank you for the email regarding your poker account.

In response to your query we are not required to contact a player to let them know they have been chat banned and the reason you received the chat ban was because the context of your chat could be considered offensive by many.

The Nickname you chose to use on the poker site was very offensive and inappropriate and as you are aware we reserve the right to change any Nickname such as the one you had been using.

We also would appreciate in any future correspondance you refrain from using foul or offensive language in any context.

You may contact our support team at any time on our 24 hour help line and change your nickname to one you wish to use that is appropriate.

We hope this clarifies the situation, however if you have any further queries please do hesitate to contact us.

Kind Regards,

They changed my alias to tinywiny (tiny whiney) lol which is brilliant. Combined that with the chat ban for such extreme language as "can you look at hand history on this site¿". Still not sure if the whole thing is a wind up but the replies do not seem full of laughter.
The abusive language in the email was one word where I said that they changed my alias to insult me by calling me tiny whiney so they might as well have just called me a c**t and get it over and done with. lol. As you can tell desperately trying to get a refund for the confusion caused when they logged me out (the next day!) and this caused problems with tournament that I was in. Then when I logged back in an hour or so later my alias had changed. No luck their though.

Great entertainment for the day and such a tale to tell. Kept the emails and will print out the first one and frame it.

welcome to blonde delia.

you need to expect to get your chat banned when you are offensive to people and have a name like you picked. why are you so surprised? There are a lot of catholics online who dont like that kind of thing....lol (only kidding about the catholic thing)

i once had a guy calling me a peodophile and a kiddy fiddler. i need to say that i was hugely offended and phoned to complain. turns out the guy had his chat banned 2 times before (it was on his profile). if i were the one making decisions on laddies, i would not have ever let this guy back on. i ended up calling him a '****' and got myself chat  barred. a player called sarahjane called laddies on my behalf and told them what the script was and reported the creep too. i got my chat back on but was raging. firstly at myself for taking the bait but secondly, about the creep who had not been totally banned although had his chat banned several times previously.

i dont know why you wasted the effort of picking a name that would get you barred/reprimanded. if you want a laugh with this kind of thing, there are special yahoo chat rooms you can go to vent your anger and fraustrations. the abuse rooms are there for those who want to give it and those sickos who want to take it. simple!

anmyway, welcome to blonde and i look foraward to hearing more about you

Hi there,

have to say I agree with Mad, and I suspect it is was the one comment you 'forgot' to highlight that probably resulted in the ban!!!!!

"768167 masterbaiting Texas Holdem Poker 15539770 MTT 8/12/2006 9:53:11 PM dirty annie let me clean her dirt box"

I think a ban for that is fair enough.  I've seen much worse though.

mad, you seem to know to much about those chat rooms

claw, cheers for pointing that out so coloured it now, I had done them as red but it is difficult to see as you can tell, tried to change them to green but pathetically gave up (it was late at night and silently playing poker at the same time). The email was copied and pasted. That is what they sent me. I am not moaning about the chat ban as it was deserved for for an outburst, that they did not mention, but I just find it amazing that they used these lines as examples and then sent them to me!

The chat that could be found abusive was actually has nothing to do with any one on the table as I was chatting with a mate! Complete random stuff and quotes from a film as it happens. Then if you look at the times you will see that half the lines were earlie on and even the Pope could not be upset with some of those lines.

The reply has to be the biggest wind up of the week and I have fallen for it. Shame on me.

Lol, no wonder I got in trouble, no speaky de englis. Not your reply or any one elses, the original email sent to me. Has to be a wind up which I have fallen for.

Surely you would know which one you were, even without knowing your alias, it would be the one you could see the cards of?! ::)

I very rarely use the chat box so I wouldnt know what would be classed as 'ban worthy'.

If you really want to talk to your pal about cleaning dirty girlies dirt boxes, you can do so by about 1,000,000 other means on the internet.

Welcome to Blonde

How long do chat bans last for?   Some people on pokerstars seem to have permanent chat bans.  I got an email from a site ages ago, I can't even remember what site it was.  Someone had complained because I typed in " What a lucky git you are " .  I only got a warning because the person had complained.  Just wait till they end up at a final table with Tony G, " Lucky git" will sound like a compliment.  I was confused by the complaint because I had played with the guy alot of times before

C'mon now sark - we all know that the warning you received wasn't just for calling someone a "lucky git" - it was where you questioned his legitimacy, made accusations that his mother sought extra money by working in houses of ill repute and threatening to seek out where he lived and pay him a visit to remove his buster gonads with a rusty Stanley knife....

Though i believe you worded it slightly differently than i have above!! ;)

lol, That's all I said honest  :D .   It was meant as a joke, that's why I was surprised when I got a warning email.

lol (obviously not on the chat) but chat ban now extended and deservedly so. Chat ban fine for what I did say but not for what they sent me. Had expected this yesterday so it shows how slow and poor they are at their job (first thing I would have done). It seems apart from standard known abuse, which they did not consider abuse, I used such phrases as "does any one know the time", " ty " , " I was a bit lucky there " etc.

You have been warned (well I have)

Still no answer to my question of how come these are offensive
can you look at hand history on this site¿
he has won every all ins about 5 of them
as he does for a portuguse breakfast?

Silence on any question I asked apart from the stuff any one could guess at or they wanted to tell me. They must do the Customer Service for the Labour Party.

Anyway, if you see me on the site you are free to abuse me but make sure you swear properly.

You know, just now and then, you can actually encounter an abuse free day and endure a friendly, fun and highly entertaining conversation online.

I had one of those sessions today - I think it was ultimately more enjoyable than the game itself.

Anyhow, this is an extract from what was a surreal day in the online chatbox:

Dealer: The PartyPoker.com Monster Bad Beat Jackpot was just hit on Bad Beat table 1289319 for $720,446.85!
NGLoots: wow - $720,000 bucks
snoopy1239: quite a prize!
snoopy1239: does it reset now?
YOURTILTING: wow
NGLoots: that's life-changing money right there
YOURTILTING: yes it is
YOURTILTING: but still id prefer not having the extra rake taken
snoopy1239: i'd prefer to win the pot
NGLoots: ha
NGLoots: :-)
YOURTILTING: obviously =)
snoopy1239: does the money go onto the table?
DerrickThomas: ha
snoopy1239: i wish there was a bad player jackpot
snoopy1239: I'd be a millionaire!
NGLoots: man there's some f'n studs at this table - how 'bout you all go on tilt for a little bit?
NGLoots: Raise with AJo up front, eh?
tgfpap: what hand makes bad beat
NGLoots: if ur quad 8s or better gets beat
snoopy1239: i never get quads! nevermind have em beat
NGLoots: snoop don't raise so much
snoopy1239: ok
snoopy1239: sry
NGLoots: tx
snoopy1239: np
snoopy1239: i've got ants in my pants
snoopy1239: i'll just call this 1
joeyp12371: take it easy snoop
NGLoots: must be FIREANTS
snoopy1239: prob dog fleas
NGLoots: he's not afraid
Krakatau7: 35 would have done the trick
NGLoots: haha
snoopy1239: when can i start raising again?
Krakatau7: and that way you would'nt have to deal with possible limpers
NGLoots: whenever I'm not in the hand
NGLoots: just CALL my bets - no raising
snoopy1239: okey dokey
snoopy1239: does 4 count?
NGLoots: not into a $80 pot - that's OK
joeyp12371: cmon snoop
snoopy1239: please don't c#m on me
NGLoots: glad I didn't hit my flush
joeyp12371: u came on me
snoopy1239: me too - i wouldn't have been allowed to raise
NGLoots: true, true...

lol... I can just imagine snoops asking permission from the other players before he raises.

So very polite.
