Sounds like you're attracting bad luck. Watch The Secret, it may help.

hey it's pretty cool that your name is toaster oven and i am currently using my toaster oven to make one of those really small party pizzas where you have to eat like three of them to get full.

I have three. Hopefully you'll continue to do good work.

that's pretty mean to say about me even if it's likely true rek.
I can live with the truth hurting though because I got me some ice cream sammiches last night and am now making pizza #2.

I used to think ABBA was lame until I realized they could sing in like five different languages.

I wish the OP was right. Someone should suggest that Pokerstars develop some sort of sooper seekrit function that diverts repeated rigtard chat screamers into their own subroom to play against superduperusers (also know the cards to come) that donate winnings to charity...

Everyone wins. These people don't make new players nervous, money goes to charity, and since most of these people deep down are looking for a reason to be mad at a world they are convinced is a conspiracy against them, they get what they want... or at least need.

I expect that most of you will think I am off my rocker but I won't be surprise if a few of you: those with a tendency to be vocal and who may have a short fuse and the ability to occasionally be vindictive, don't find that this notion rings true!
Assuming this is not a silly "level," I would again suggest using a different form of thinking.

Instead of how many problems it solves, think of how many problems a system like this creates.


Current system:

- Chat abuse happens a lot, most do not get reported, some do and the site has grunts in customer service look at the situation and apply standardized punishments to fit the situation (warning/2nd warning/chat ban etc)


Your system:

- The millions and millions of hands every day would have to be overseen by a huge number of people who have to look at every hand that someone says rigged or donk or fkn fish etc.

This would be tens or hundreds of thousands of hands a day that would need to be analyzed then the software would have to be adjusted for each of the players who speak out to punish them accordingly, all handled by low level grunts, all of whom would have to keep this sinister plot a big secret.


This solves problems?

I challange you to a challenge! I challenge you to make a post with easily readable and correct grammar!

Your inability to spell correctly among other things demonstrates a lack of intelligence. Ergo, lack of respect. The logic behind your "challange" contributes to this. Anyone with even a modicum of common sense already knows that correlation does not mean causation.

Notice his post count(mines low I know), he literally had to register a forum account to post his theory, that means he must have put some major thought into it. Sounds credible, I believe him.

You missed this one Bobo.

Obv. you get sent to a site-bot table ("no one even there") where your money is assimilated by the site, borg-style.

My god, this has merit
This explains everything
I've been freaking 'bad apple tagged'!!! (henceforth: BATed)

Of my 10 sites I consistently lose at 2 of them. (FT and Stars, amazingly)

I have ripped off terse e-mails to both requesting an imminent end to my BAT.

I am NOT a BA and it's just not goddamn fair that I be treated as one

I'm steamin' now, boy

gotta go for a walk...

You could easily debunk this by asking a friend who isn't tagged as a bad apple to join you at one of these tables.
