blonde poker forum

Why is it that the annonimity that accompanies playing online induces the most deplorably reprehensible language and abuse from seemingly the preponderance of players.
insults that are nothing short of egreadious and would provoke substantial reaction if done in the bricks and mortar game are insouciantly conveyed at the drop of a hat precipitated by nothing more than a bad beat.a multitude of players are abusing the system thus, with compunction and impunity.
Are poker players inherintly contemptable and just very good at duplicitously fiegning humility and magnanomy in the real world only to asuage there anger and frustration by imparting the most pernicious inviduous insults when they get home and play online.
should there be a code of practice that precludes such behaviour and admonishes the perpertraitors with exclusion or suspension depending on the extent to which they have transgressed it?
the nefarious and cowardly element who i would propose never act thus offline, in fear of reprisal, should be filtered out so that human decency, prevalent decorum,and a propensity for reverence can flourish over individual site profit!

wow i understoood about 3 word in that but if you see someone spouting of abuse at the table please report it to support@(the poker site your playing on) they should then remove the abilty of that person to chat

Nice words, can you spell check next time please?

Apart from that... interesting first post, my new friend.

yeah, orrible innit  ;)

Guess who got a dictionary for chistmas then!!!!!

Wow good long winded big worded first post :D

I think a lot of it is simply to tilt other players at the table.

 ;iagree; MikkyT

I could never word it quite like that bolt pp
but a big  ;welcome; to you
shelly xx

I don't think they even qualify as words!

And I have a degree

Impressive vocabulary, grammar and structure require a little work.

Welcome to Blonde.

hehe, good post.

I guess you'll never have to worry about being taken to task for insulting an opponent since there's scant chance of them understanding one of your verbose diatribes!

I laugh at people insulting me over the net. I know they wouldn't say the same things to my face.  I do feel bad for other people though at some of the insults. Saying you hope someone "dies of cancer" or similar is pretty disgusting , but something i used to see on a daily basis, when playing at certain sites.

I found party poker players were often the most insulting, but occasionally they can make me laugh. One time, i outdrew an opponent. His response?

"I hope you get f****d by a goat"

Well....

I've never heared such language

Welcome to blonde

wow, a wonderful Maiden Post by bolt PP. Another candidate for POTD.

By coincidence, I spent last week on a boat with about 600 predominantly online players, most of whom rarely play Live. The behaviour of some of them was quite atrocious, it seemed to me they transferred their online personna to the live game. It goes with the territory, methinks. But there are many, many online players who behave impeccably, but they don't grt noticed. The nature of the beast.

I guess he's experienced such an encounter himself then. Maybe he's being friendly.

You mentioned this on Poker 425. Can we hear more on this?

I thought the story of the fella with 53k was terrible. Really gets my goat. Total arrogance.

Apologies if you have already discussed this topic.

That's a compliment where I come from.........

So what you are saying to me is, act like a complete tw... arse in Deauville and I'll get noticed?

We notice you darling xxx

I got heaps of "Cruise Stories" to tell, just needed today to do some catching up, will try & post some of them - and Pics - from the Cruise tomorrow.

But the lad - a young, inebriated Scandie with the $53,000, well, I could not stop looking at his stack of plaques. (They used plaques for $500 & $1,000). And he was SO in our faces, "call me if you dare, I am hung like a donkey" kinda thing. When he eventually got tripped up by a guy with QQ, there was a huge ironic cheer from the entire table, we all, I am a little ashamed to say, clapped as Mr Big Stack departed in a huff. Magic moments in poker.

No Mikky, He's saying be yourself

Shame on you!!! Taking advantage of the well endowed scandie.  BTW how did you know he was hung like a donkey?

Hang on Mr. Pot.... can't you spot irony when its on the table face up?

Yes Mr Kettle, I have just had too many beers tonight.

 rotflmfao rotflmfao

There was a big cash game every night on the boat, & these kids all came to the table wih 5 figure sums. In daily conversation, it became known as the "big dicks game"......

Dunno how my $500 got described, I shudder to think.

 rotflmfao ;tightend; ;tightend;

I bet you showed them what a tiddler can do though Tikay

It was not hard to win in that game. (Hastily edited, though it seems a little too late....).

:redcard:

I did'nt ask if it was.

Spot the english teacher trying to impress!!

This is what you call an advert of an online thesaurus

From an advert to online thesauruses to Billy talking about cocks. talk about lowering the tone!

But if you use a thesaurus... you should be able to copy the words correctly :)

oh did he spell some of them wrong?

a couple, you had to look carefully though.

i tried to look carelully kid, but it was like reading binary!

What a great tool. Next time i get someone giving it large at the table, i'm going to copy and paste the  following in the chat box...

That should keep em busy for a while

0010011101001111!!!!!!!

thanks heid now i understand it

01001001

Iron 10100111010101!

you hear me ya 1001010101

dont get kinky now

watch it or i will set mikkyt on yer ass

You know you love it, don't be coy.

(0000010000111110011- phnar)

up the bum no babies

Man why didnt i listen to you last september

if its your contention that i used a thesaurus all well and good, but i find your underlying condersention dissparaging. furthermore had i used a thesaurus i would have constucted an assertion with a far greater array of obscure and extravegant synonyms!!!!!!

oh dear.... I think you might regret that in the morning! Edit it now, before its too late.

Hey dont you swear at me, im a hero member lol

jesus lighten up dude lol

I keep forgeting that you will be someones Dad soon Dave, whats worse is Mikky is one already.

Mikky is 4 already, if im not mistaken, in fact what you on about your kids have 'The Mouth' for a Faether!

Does anyone remember Jim Farry the former Chief Exec of the SFA, he used to speak like bolt PP, and he used to crack me up too, cos even he had no Idea what he was going on about.

lol ok must have left my sense of humour at the cash game!!!

His spelling hasn't improved.

This has to be a wind up......come on   WHO IS IT ? 

TE must be even money as the culprit....

Sometimes one can become consumed with the exuberance of one's own verbosity.

Next time I am insulted at a table I shall explain that 'I decline the pugilistic verbal gauntlet you lay before me' rather than my normal answer - 'suck my d' and various derivatives thereof.

I was going to ask if he/she had swallowed a dictionary, until I saw the spelling!!  lol


Must say this thread has cracked me up and put a smile on my face!


Thanks guys.

xx

Okay, thats commited to memory for next Feb in case a camera is around...

'it's'
'condescension'
'disparaging'
'extravagant'

Hope this helps. I await your next display of linguistic gymnastics with bated breath.

You forgot to correct his use of capital letters and commas. Or rather, the lack thereof.

thanks for your corrections they're REALLY helpful, as it was an on going joke the errors featured in the sbsequent post were intentional; i think only heid got it!
as for the piece its self i am alittle supprised at the extent to which the digressive comments exceeded that of the piece itself;never mind. thanks to those who participated as it was a topical subject for me that i felt was of significant importance. the joke in writing the piece was that i spent longer trying to wake my girlfriend up to type than i did on the piece itself(i'm horribly inept at a key board) The response could have been so different if hadnt drunkenly ushered her straight into the spare tv!!! that was the end of that she was none to pleased.let me furthermore dispell the increasingly prevalent falacy that i'm a ringer. if i wasnt as drunk as i was last night i may have wished i had been in light of the proficiantly articulated derision i recieved.(mickeyt and scottish dave) dont stop digging me out lads i may return to gcse education yet!!! there was a 19th century auther and playwright who was the most appalling speller and his work when written by himself was barely legible, but it was his contention that the content and communication of his work far exceeded something as trivial as grammar. the playwright being oscar wilde was of course correct.I shall continue to formulate the most exasparatingly  poorly constructed pieces when a tad drunk and hope that in such an informal format for communication you all will develop a countenence my interminable but insightful opinions!! I'm eager to know how many of you that were so benevolant in ignominiously correcting my spelling had to consult a dictionary-) i suspect heid as being the only one who didnt (to astute for that time in the morning) lol

Did vinni get hit on the head?

right i was honestly fine up till this!

Bolt are you honestly sane??

Heid - grab yer coat  you've pulled!!!!   ;goodvevil;

If this is someone messing about I have an idea who it may be!

Keep it coming bolt.

lol i love it!! am i sane?  when i take my pills......which they force me to do-)

i'm glad your amused but am eager to find out if you have an opinion about the content of my piece,
i would furthermore like to know what exactly it is that induced you to unequivocal incredulity over the validity of it?

Its all about the etymology m8, go on the bolt!!!!

etymology?

good stuff mate  ;)

Now then, repeat after me:


1. All sentences need to begin with capital letters.

2. I will use full stops, commas and all other appropriate forms of punctuation where necessary.

3. Paragraphs are not just something army types draw in maths lessons.


100 times please, after school

If you follow these three easy rules I can enjoy the etymology of the text in your posts much more! cheers

IT ' S     FFS!!!   sheesh

Probably witty, but can't be arsed reading it.

I'll say  :goodpost: just in case it is.  :D

well if you want to be pedantic: IT'S    FFS!!!    sheesh'  is a sentence fragment without the correct punctuation to denote pauses and a conclusion; sheesh is an onomatopoeic phrase not recognised in modern English writing and the word its without a commer is a commenly used adjective used to imply ownership. ty gl

i'm trying but everyones picking on me!!! is there no safe place for a person with an amazingly high iQ of 98!!!

Circumlocution. No one's a bigger fan of it than myself but 'net forums work better if we're all as concise as possible.

would you not agree then that in accentuating the content of my post as opposed to concentrating on grammatical proficiancy i have upheld the aforementioned practise of being concise?

TO be more pedantic Sheesh is a word, not a phrase & as it has no meaning it cannot be onomatopoeic, as it's meaning is not described by the sound of the word  ;ifm;

back to the subject in hand.... ;)


does anyone feel there would be a use, somewhere on the net (not here!!) for a "name and shame" facility of those who abuse the online chat boxes

does anyone think that has mileage?


Meanwhile, it was bloody cold and windy out today!

Shh, let him speak.. he's being nice to me :)

You carry on bolt :)

(just had my leaving lunch - oops - tube home is going to be fun!)

There should be something in place becuse what this one guy said to me was so bad there would have been a serious turn out if it had been at a table.I was so angry that this dougnut was able to use the system thus to say things that he would otherwise never be forwarded the opportunity to do.

At the expense of being understood perhaps.



Agree with you on the 'sheesh' issue though.
A phrase can consist of one word only so


is not a valid correction IMHO.

ampodjngohanpoian has no meaning, I believe 'sheesh' does.
Just because it has no recognized meaning in a dictionary does not mean it has no meaning in the language we use to one another.

 ;ifm; ;ifm; Jings crivens, help me 'bob

Can't believe you said that to me - YOU TAKE THAT BACK!!!

Ok Ok, I'll apologise.

I'm sorry you're an ampodjngohanpoian

If you're going to use rude words at least use them properly  ;tracet;

I enjoy having abuse thrown at me on-line.  If they're wound up, they're not concentrating fully.  They're fools to dish out abuse in the first place, wound up fools are really very good at coughing up cash.

If it upsets you then turn the chat off or report them.

Bolt,

You have an interesting insight.

All you regs need to calm down a tad :)

He's not done anything outrageous yet, so don't let's baste him at the stake :)

he's also shown he can get pissed with the best of us :)

Play nice, or else no more niece.

Heid

I believe that for most of these words, the coherence is in the context. A good author can make these word's meaning suitably clear to all in written form and in doing so can add to the flavour of their writing.

n1 ty heid sort em all out i'm being well dug out!!! lol all good fun

Oi, Heid. Some of us were sticking up for bolt on the whole big 'sheesh' issue I'll have you know.
(So you can pm me the niece if the others stay naughty  :D )

Glad you're enjoying it bolt pp  ;welcome; to blonde.

Jeez, my brain hurts now. I've gone and forgotten how to play poker.

Doesn't matter, I just play STT at the mo, no poker required. :D

We're not being nasty - just some gentle urine extraction (anyway Tank's using the rude words).

How is Sarah?

I think you're right in that a good author can adopt and manipulate the aforementioned type of language and create an entertaing piece of writting, but i dont, however, think this extends to formal writing such as legal assertions and so on even in the current state of litarary ambiguity. thanks 4 the welcome m8!

Sarah is fine .. someone tried to mug her the other nigth, a gang of 5 youths, so she punched the ringleader til the police came and they have been wated for ages apparently.

She's the daughter I will never have is that girl :)

 :respect: ;tightend;

Well done Sarah!!

Not many legal assertions appear on the Blonde forum.

...a few illegal ones perhaps.



Back to the original thread, I think Roy Cooke said it best when he wrote something along the lines of....

"The annonimity that the internet provides gives many the kind of bravado they could only dream of in real life"

So solice can be taken from the fact that the majority of these offensive bozos are weedy little ragamuffins, probably deeply unhappy with themselves on one level or another.

When I have profanities thrown my way in the chat box, it's usually because I'm winning. I'll take the $$$$ over the civilities every day of the week.

well said.

Bolt wins the award for best 1st post ever imo.

Deserves a T-shirt imo.

Two to be fair

I like how he deliberately mucks up the spelling on some words to try and mask the fact that he's used the thesaurus on MS Word.

Still a ledge though obv

This is why bolt is my favourite. I would take one from the goat for him...

I was once playing a lowish lvel SNG online and my opponent put in "I hope that you suffer a long an painful death".

FFS this woz something like a $30 tourney, and he puts in that!

Yes u can get their chat banned, but that's no substitute for a proper "live" slapping for such behaviour.

Sadly (lol) I took out said opponent a few hands later. Most pleasing end result. I put in the usual. "wp. Have a Nice day 8-)" 

I still think Bolt should use a thesaurus. His English is shocking FFS!

No t-shirt for bolt ... AND there never will be*






























*Unless he attends a blonde bash.

I can't believe how pedantry everyone was back in those days ;)

Wrong forum if you want to be pedantry Claire ;)

I could have been pedantry if I'd joined a day earlier. fml.

loooooooooooooooooooooooooool

my computer desk used to look like this in those days:
