Reporting Chat Violations
Okay, I've only done this a few times, but man, it felt great doing it, but not so great when your own chat has been reported. Is it totally dooshey to report chat, or are their instances when it is okay, or f' it, and report away. I suspect the later is uber dooshey, but please discuss. I mean it can't be that dooshey considering fulltilt has a special chat report email - chatabuse@fulltilt.com.
For some reason, it feels so much better to report a violator after they bad beat you and then berate you for doing so. Its like a secret victory. haha

Re: Reporting Chat Violations
I always know when someone is reporting me because they insta sit out and go write their emails to the chat police.

Re: Reporting Chat Violations
I reported a guy once but only because he interfered with game play, advising people what to do, telling people they HAD to call, etc., never for being insulted.

Re: Reporting Chat Violations
Douche my arse. Poker traditionally demands that players display a certain amount of decorum to each other. No f-bombs. No personal insults. No threats of violence. Why should onlline be different?
There's very good reasons for this: The weaker players can often be weak personally. They don't want to feel threatened while they're having fun and losing their money. They feel threatened they'll pick up an go.
I damn sure aint gonna listen to some pimple-faced dork insult or threaten me in person, why would I wanna read it in chat? I've tilted a guy or two and had them open up on me, call me names, threaten to drive up and beat my arse. Lol, whatever. It's funny at first, but if it keeps up, I've got no prob IM'ing a mod. I've only done it twice, the mod came on and gave a warning, and that was that.
This is grown-up game, played for grown-up $$. Even @ nano-stakes where I play. Act like it.
What, are you gonna whine like a baby cause somebody told on you? Call them a tattle-tale? Sounds like somone needs their binkey.

Re: Reporting Chat Violations
haha, i love the dooshrulez! obviously, many have never experienced the pure extasss-seee from reporting a noob pilo-o-****. This aint prison son, this is online warefare. cross the line and I will report. Why? Cuz I can and it feels sooooo good. Ya, its ratting or snitching, but why the F should I care. This aint federal f you in the asss prison rules boys. Its the wild west baby! Report away. maybe you should try it. you might like it. or maybe we arent cool enough like you to not report. but man, it sure feels good to report after a bad beat. maybe thats an unwritten reason to report. i mean something other than variance has to make us feel better
ps - level is accurate

Re: Reporting Chat Violations
The only good times to report chat are when it's interfering with game play or when it's becoming seriously abusive. If the chat is in competitive spirit, there's not really anything wrong with that.
Once, I reported some guy for talking about his cards on several occasions at a bad beat table. Told him a couple times to put a can in it (very politely, I might add), and all I got was berated. Definitely felt good to report him.

Re: Reporting Chat Violations
I have never really understand anyone who reports chat violation. This is a poker game not a tea party. I though dont really when sites give you chat bans not really a big issue but to spend time reporting it AMEN.
