Player M1000000 on Crypto has just said 'I wish u cancer' to me after I beat him out of a $20 pot. What do you think my course of action should be? I have had offensive comments made to me before on Crypto and when I have complained they have taken no action.

It deserves a complaint but crypto are not likely to follow it up

See it depends on who they are with, who you are with, and probably who you get to talk to/who reads your email.
One crypo site can't act against another's player.
Disgraceful, completely unacceptable:(

i wouldnt usualy advocate this particular recourse but as the comment made was so reprehensible you can check what site the guy was playing on at www.sharkscope.com, then take whatever action you feel is appropriote. |

I never use the chat box. I switch it off. Best thing to do is just ignore it. It is only words. The guy obviously has a small weak mind. One of the advantages of never reading any of the crap that is written is, you can't be annoyed by morons comments like that. However a disadvantage is, I can't read comments like " Hi sark, I have seen your Blonde avatar, you are such a handsome guy".  |

Maybe he took a liking to you and was hoping that you were born between June 22nd and July 22nd as that would make you compatible with him?

Do you think that's a big deal? I think that's quite mild compared to some comments I've had. I don't think crypto have ever answered one of my emails.

Maybe it's because I used to work with a group of people with really juvenile senses of humour, it would be mum and girlfriend jokes all day long, that this sort of comment when directed at me just makes me laugh. My avatar on Stars is a picture of my daughter when she was 2 hours old. If I got upset everytime some moron tried to put me on tilt by making some sick comment about her I'd be spending half my life emailing Poker Stars.
I suppose this sort of thing could put off some of the fish so it's a good thing to try to do something about it.

IMO it needs reporting. These dumb people need to understand its not acceptable, but many are so dumb, that no matter what the consequences they'll never learn.

What goes around......
This guy is probably around 5ft 2" tall and is suffering from chronic sexual frustration.
Complaining is all you can do, I wouldn't worry too hard about whether he recieves any punitive measures though. By the sounds of things, he has a very sad life and one day will get a kick in the teeth or two from someone or other.

Not that there's anything wrong with being 5ft2" tall.
This guy probably has a problem with himself though.

I used to see exactly this comment regularly on the limit omaha/8 tables at party.
Personally i just find the comment so nonsensical i laugh at it although i can understand the upset it can cause.
The best retort i saw was when someone made this comment to another player and the player replied,
"I've already had it and i beat it just as bad as i'm beating you."
