Maybe this is the newest gimmick for all the scammers who get locked down...
"Open my account back up or I'm gonna end it all"

Wow. I think PokerStars treated you absolutely perfect. Very nice and sensible respond from them. Quite allright of them to close your account.

You are an overall winner at PokerStars, up almost $22,000 since the
creation of your account. This shows us and you, that you are a solid
Poker Player with outstanding talent for the game. Don't let these bad
beats affect you, you cannot control the way the cards fall. Instead
harness the energy from these beats and apply them to your next event. If
you consistently get your money in in-front (which is evident from your
overall performance at PokerStars), your time will come. You already have
the talent, all it takes is persistence and you will make it.

Yeh sounds like something pokerstars would say.

I call bs.

The real question is "Why the French are hated?" The answer might be this.

Also, I will never get tired of pokerstars support emails. So effin funny. Didnt one poster ask for dating advice and got a real and sincere response? I wish Howard "the freak" Lederer would get off his lazy ass and hire some of these guys to full tilts support service.

Hello Walter,

We have recently received an email from you suggesting that you may hurt
yourself. Your direct comment posted below.

"...I end my own life for the sole reason that you guys toy with my
emotions..."

Whilst we understand that this comment may have been made without this
direct intention to hurt yourself, suicide threats are taken extremely
seriously and as such, I have frozen your PokerStars account until you
contact us back with an explanation for this email to support.

As the tone of your email indicated that you are not in imminent danger
and
that the comment appears to be derived from frustration at your current
run of bad luck at the tables, we do not feel that we need to call the
police at this time to make sure that you are OK.

This is a very serious accusation you have made in your email, and we ask
that you do not do this again, or we will be forced to take this up with
the local authorities and close your PokerStars account permanently. I
thank you for your cooperation and understanding.

Remember Walter, PokerStars is here to help you with your every need. We
cater to all of our players needs to the best of our ability. Just rest
assured that we do offer a fair and random shuffle completely devoid of
bias.

You are an overall winner at PokerStars, up almost $22,000 since the
creation of your account. This shows us and you, that you are a solid
Poker Player with outstanding talent for the game. Don't let these bad
beats affect you, you cannot control the way the cards fall. Instead
harness the energy from these beats and apply them to your next event. If
you consistently get your money in in-front (which is evident from your
overall performance at PokerStars), your time will come. You already have
the talent, all it takes is persistence and you will make it.

I hope this has alleviated any questions, concerns or queries you may have
regarding this issue. In the meantime, if you would like your account re-
opened can you please provide us with an confirmation that you understand
the seriousness of this email and acknowledgement that this will not
happen again.

Thank you for your cooperation and understanding.

Regards,

Josh M.
PokerStars Support Team

apparently when i decided to write something similar to this to Stars they felt i was in severe danger and actually decided to send the local authorities to my house. true story.
