Pokerstars going to start "Zoom" Poker soon? - update(Feb24) Zoom Beta test released - Page 7 - Internet Poker

In my country this word is associated with the activity of sexual exhibitionists, 'flashers', many of whom are paedophiles. It would not be acceptable.

I suggest that PokerStars add a faciliity Options>select personalised term for fast moving poker game.

That would be democratic and no-one would get hurt.

This is unacceptable and Stars needs to implement a feature that allows us to customize the names of made hands.

Straights are associated with heterosexuals, and many gay poker players are up in arms for not being represented. Either change straight to something else that cannot possibly be associated with anything or change flush to 'gay'. Fitting since every time somebody rivers a flush, somebody else types 'gay'.

Or we could just call it 'Fast Moving Anal Poker' to satisfy you.

This won't fly in some countries because the term 'GOGO' is often associated young women dancing half naked. Not to mention some of the people that go to see them dance are paedophiles.

LOL, have you still not comprehended that his earlier post was a joke?

Or am I just a victim of some silly level/revel escapade?
