You disappoint me Cottlad not once have I mentioned your name but you just wont let it go will you. There were 2 people in the 'other' thread that annoyed me but you wasn't one of them. Give it a rest dude! I'm here to praise Tikay not here to bring negative feelings into what seems a really nice touch here! Tikay is a legend as simple as that! Posted by lJAMESl
Fair enough.... air cleared...... apologies for my presumption
Tk is an amazing man. The kindness he has shown to us and Lauren is wonderful. The threads he has started for lauren have meant so much and made me well up reading them. Lauren has also been so touched by the messages and none of this would have happened without TK'S influence.
i just like to say , we may have had our differences in the past, you being right lol 99o/o of the time , but i think your a top man tk, and please keep your helpful advice/ banter going in forum ! over and out roborover ! Posted by IRISHROVER
This applies to me too. Most definitely. Don't think theres anyone on here I havent had a disagreement with, some justified, some unjust.
Another crackin thread started by the Irishman, sometimes people, and I imparticular take things for granted. Sometimes things are said without thinking, and afterwards, we regret them, I've given Tikay a hard time several times in the past, unfairly and unjustly, but the guy keeps giving. He never turns his back on ya, n maybe some people will say "thats his job" - But it isn't, he doesnt get paid to take cr@ p and be dis-respected by people like myself, who might have had a few too many, or just decided to go attention seeking (always the former with me, never the latter)
About time TK got some real recognition for his work, and this thread, from the people he 'works with' day in day out, Im sure will be appreciated by the great man himself.
Just wanted to add my appreciation for the work you do.
Squirm away Mr Kendall. An absolute gentleman and a diamond. Not afraid to laugh at himself and always helpful. Sky Poker without Tikay not worth thinking about.
fray bentos steak and kidney pudding is floppin marvellous too, and if a fray bentos steak and kidney pudding accidentally started an argument, it would still be floppin marvellous---so there!
I couldn't agree more with everything that's been said..... well apart from.......... no, no, I'm only kidding! Tikay is OF COURSE the top man, the head honcho, the bee's knees, the business! We sometimes take the mickey but he takes it all in the way it was intended (and gives it back too! lol), we sometimes end up arguing but at no time does lose his gentlemanly manner and whenever we need advise or help I guarantee you the first person to reply to the post will be Tikay!
Here you go, Tikay, enjoy some of this hardcore super-filth Loads of pictures to look at. I hope the moderators don't mind the link as it pretty steamy. If I have to accept a forum ban then so be it. If it makes Tikay smile then it's the price I'll have to pay.
completely agree with every1s comments, the ammount of time and effort that TK puts in is endless, also the words of wisdom are much apreciated. they say the older you get the wiser you get so im guessing thats why TK is the greatess :P no seriously tho site def wouldnt be the same without you, thanks
For his knowledge of the game, (both online and offline), for his dedication and passion for the job, for genuinely caring about all the players, for his tireless energy in helping out on the site, for his brilliant onscreen comedy persona...
PS- I didn't see any of the aggro which Tikay got according to some of these posts, but I did come across this on the web today which gave me a wry smile.
It's for everyone who's ever been the victim of an internet troll- for those of you who don't know what a troll is, here's Wikipedia's definition...
In Internet slang, a troll is someone who posts inflammatory, extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum, chat room or blog, with the primary intent of provoking other users into an emotional response or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.
Anyway, in future troll-situations, or indeed whenever you're next confronted by chatbox idiots who are giving it the large one, it's worth remembering this picture...

Cheers Rich! I've actually been wanting to know what it means for a while now!
Good to see this thread. Tikay is indeed the great man of Sky Poker. For his knowledge of the game, (both online and offline), for his dedication and passion for the job, for genuinely caring about all the players, for his tireless energy in helping out on the site, for his brilliant onscreen comedy persona... ...he's just irreplaceable. Believe me, I've tried. Posted by RICHORFORD

I have to speak up on this whole subject.
The thread in question related to some action on a cash table. One member of this forum spoke out his objection to this. No personal attack was made on Tikay. The objection was clearly to the principle. The poster made a lucid argument against Sky representatives appearing to favour an individual and at no time did he insult. In subsequent posts the 'objector' was derided for his view. There was some exchange between him and Tikay where both laid out their arguments for and against. The 'objector' on more than one occasion stated that he in no way intended to intimate that Tikay was anything other than fair and ethical. I made a short post agreeing with the original 'objector'. Two other members also vented their opinion that this was wrong. The vast majority of posters on the thread 'sided' with Tikay on this subject. The three objectors (but not me) where subjected to a number of remarks suggesting they 'leave', 'grow up', 'get real', 'lay off Tikay' etc. At no point that I can find in the thread did they (the objectors) insult or act in any way other than with great respect for Tikay. In fact on a number of occasions they openly stated their admiration for the man. The 'trolling' came in the disguise of support for Tikay, not from those who objected to the principle in question.
There was a difference of opinion on what is to be fair a tricky question. Unfortunately rather than being debated the thread became a 'whose side are you on' slanging match. This particular thread is not needed. Tikay's reputation was never in question. At no point was he bullied. If a member disagrees with something that is the point of view of Tikay, or any member of Sky staff for that matter then that should be OK.
As I said in another post: Tikay's a big lad, and why anyone should think he needs this kind of thread initiating because three or four people disagreed with him is beyond me. Tikay's commitment and professionalism goes without saying. If someone wants to celebrate that by posting a thank you thread then that's just great. To tag it onto the other thread is wrong. If people can't have a disagreement with Tkay, Rich or anyone else at Sky without being effectively ganged up on, I don't want any part of this forum. The moderators should have been active yesterday. Allowing the false situation of Tikay's martyrdom to arise is just ridiculous.
