on line abuse

[bolt pp]

 due to the increasingly coarse nature of moderm English not all prevalently used words translate to written form.(not with any significant cohearance anyway)

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.

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!

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.

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

[Wardonkey]

Deserves a T-shirt imo.

[Laxie]

Two to be fair

[thetank]

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

[sovietsong]

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

[Drain Alien]

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.

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.

Is it the same goat already mentioned earlier in the thread?

[Drain Alien]

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-)" 

[boldie]

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

[Colchester Kev]

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
