Forgive me for being cynical...

[TightEnd]

this is by no means a dig at tight end, and i know i haven't contributed much to the forum, but how much more do we have to endure of mr ukpoker, i wonder what your response will be when he has a sly dig at you mate. He's only been on the forum a few days and imo is trying his level best to get under the skin of every blondeite, I thought the main point of this forum was to be honest!
   best regards

I was trying to prevent a nasty situation developing, and I have already said that my response would have been the same Adam's

I am not a moderator, therefore I can't do much but I can try, but neither Tikay or Ironside are around

If I, in your eyes, did not deal with it properly I apologise.


I am sure the powers that be will have their attention drawn to this thread.

No Mark, you've entirely missed the tone of your post. re-read what you've posted now you are more aware of my circumstances and try and  apply some empathy.

I'm trying to remain civil but you keep pressing the buttons

[action man]

as i said i wasnt having a pop, gl with your business m8,

Reply to Adam,

Once again I think you've missed ENTIRELY the point of my post!

No he didn't and you know it.

UKPoker, you are on thin ice, please leave it

[action man]

tight end i understand completely mate, take it easy

[SuffolkPunch]

Thanks Tightend.

One of your members emailed me to tell me of this thread so thought I'd better take a look! I'll try and keep you posted on here, but you can get daily updates of my progress (or lack of!) at the EPT on www.thesun.co.uk

Good luck. I'm now off to the Victoria for the draw to see if I play Day One today, or Day One tomorrow (in which case I can say I survived the first day!!)

Sometimes all a fire wants it to be fanned - if you don't give it oxygen it will go out eventually

Simon you are very welcome here - congrats on your cashes last month - wish I had the bankroll to make that sort of dosh, and you've managed to do what a lot of us wish we could do - so fair play to ya

Write lovely stuff about us in The Sun, cause we are all nice, some of us are excellent poker players, and you are going to learn an awful lot from the postings on here. I don't count myself as one of the excellent poker players, but I'm not bad - not brill either, but I have managed to camouflage that fact so far!

Mark, you really need to just join in the flow mate, it's not all about being contentious - it's about being a part of the community, and just enjoying it for what it is

TightEnd, Nemesis, hold me back (swinging) hold me back (struggling) I'll knock that chip off (bundled away by calmer Blondites)

Has he wound people up since he got here though? or have people just automatically pounced on him from past experience?
I completely understand Adam's reaction here and is absolutely right to be unhappy about that comment, though it is the first time he has wound anybody up, just being here seems to be pissing most people off.
Look at it from the majority angle (people who don't know who this bloke is) and this is becoming like a certain other forum, not because of Mark but because of peoples comments to him.
I would say if you don't like him then ignore him, don't start flaming him it's unpleasant and not wanted.

Suffolkpunch, I hope now you're here you'll stay with us. other than the occassional fall out with Mark, it's a really friendly place.

I'll have a look at your colomn (leave it Nun)

Simon, good luck again


One small piece of friendly advice...no need to spam the Sun anymore...I think we all known about your organ and indeed many will buy it already

It's not always what he rights Ifm. people I've spoken too all agree it's the 'tone' of the pieces. it's the fact that he rarely contributes positively to other threads. evey day before lunch he'll come onto this and other forums and post an editorial stance on something or other and step back and watch the board bicker over it, occassionally stepping back in to stir it if neccessary.

[action man]

anyway, my mate has left me in charge on a 50/50 cut crapshoot now

In other words Ian and Adam, by all means PM to your hearts content, but how about moving on everyone?

would love to
