First off all respect to the posters and Sky for allowing this thread to continue.
I like many have come across players that in chat that have said things in the real world would end up with a court apperance. I understand Sky cannot enter into details of what the results of there investergation is. However it is not unreasonbile that we are told ie the player has been banned from site or chat ban etc TBH a page of list of players and reason for ban may be uncomftable for them but tough they are the offenders and may stop others.
I also reported a player for outrages comments usual of I kill you, and your family, I ...... you mother etc I have to be honest I havnt bothered reporting since as the player in question received no chat ban and to this day continues this behavour and feels even more able to act like this as he know I reported him with no action on him.
I even had other players mention his name and has done the same to them this is where with no feedback on any report made to Sky dosent work as if for some reason the opperater taking the report makes a error or worse forgets to make a report no one ever knows
People that make these statments are of course just trying to tilt you however I do not see why this should ever be allowed if in everyday life the same coments would result in Police action
We do urge you to report things like this please. We do monitor, but your help is appreciated. If you think there is a repeat offender who needs looking into, please report them again.
As usual, please provide as much detail as possible on:
- The alias of the person - The table / game it was in - The time and date
Please make sure that the alias is accurate especially because it makes it much easier to find.

In my local area,the police are at present running a drink driving scheme where anyone found guilty of drink driving over the festive period are named and shamed on a public web site for all to see.It would seem therefore that this policy is some what justified,especially if the good old law enforcers think its the right thing to do......

Not the same - convicted and guilty of a crime vs an alleged offence. That's why quite rightly there cannot be any naming and shaming.
In Response to Re: Not impressed : I hope nobody does, as that would never be acceptable to the Business. I really hope the thread remains open, so these things can be discussed in an adult & sensible manner, but the suggestion of "name & shame" would work against that. Posted by Tikay10
In Response to Re: Not impressed : can i just ask how its possilble for anybody to know you're sexuality or race from there computer screen? Posted by THEROCK573

cheren84 = cherene girls name and girls avatar that maybe gave it away
I suggest we all get some guns and pitch forks and such like things. Then we could all drive round to his house, preferably in old battered pick-up trucks, ideally with those big lights stuck on the top of the truck. We would, however, have to wait until it was a foggy night. If possible I would like us to all wear dungarees and speak in a deep american accent. When we got there we could burn his house down and then run him out of town.
On a serious note, just ignore the idiot. As my mum always said give them no attention and they will soon go away.

+1, really is that simple.
Amazing how frequently threads get closed nowardays. This 1 prob required a snap closure.
The thread I started 3 yrs ago asking for an employee to be sacked is still open, and gets bumped quite often.

If the abuse is reported, and dealt with in the correct manner,i.e through sky,and the said offender is found guilty of abuse in the chat box,then where is the difference?

Because the police in conjunction with the CPS are powered by statute to enforce the law and declare specific behaviour as criminal or otherwise. Sky on the other hand do not have this power and nor do we as members of the public. That's the difference.
