Didn't want to get involved in this discussion but have finally decided to have my 10c worth. racist remarks or abuse aimed at a specific player should be reported as this behaviour clearly crosses the line of decency,& these offenders should not be able to use the chat box facility again. these people clearly get pleasure from doing this & it does happen on other sites too. i also think that 'sky' could & should do more to ensure that this simply doesn't happen. however a bit of 'blue banter' if you like and if intended as fun is a diferent matter altogether,i think. we are after all all 'grown ups' & over 18. players always have the choice to turn off their chat box should they choose to. personally i multi-table & play in miniview now,so my chat box is never on.well very occasionally if i decide i want a chat with someone,usually towards the end of my session. anyway, i've had my say... and it won't make the slightest bit of diference anyway. best wishes dev

Couldn't agree more Dev. Its an emotive subject which is being discussed here by mainly regs on the site. It won't be read by the abusers because they can't be bothered with community & forums , so they will continue unless we act together, report them & get them banned.
i think people who write "i was abused posts" should be banned from the forum. wish sky would put a big post on the front page of general "been sworn at" call customer care = problem solved
leave general for more important things like "im leaving" and "skys xxxx" with the odd post of " anyone else having connection problems" topped off with my personal fav "when do we get our cash for pts!!"

Was going to put exactly that!!...well said .
On another note I wouldnt say anything like Im leaving cos sky just closes accounts when they feel like it and close accounts on WINNING players.Up to them I suppose,makes for a good business relationshix
Hi All i said it before, there should be a button you can click, that sends the abuse to CC, it might be a deterrent for some to use abusive language, if it was that easy to complain, just a thought. Glen
