Cool

It's up to us to report it!!

And therein lies the answer...I had an instance of extremely inappropriate racial behaviour by a charmingly named player 'Adolf Hitler' (I kid you not) in an MTT at the tail end of last year - Through the live support he was reported to PKR along with the table details. Almost instantly he had a warning from an administrator - he chose to ignore this (and in fact to argue his point...which wasn't much of a point at all) - result was they blocked his player (he showed as sat out for the remainder of the game) and changed the avatars name to Winston Churchill (which I thought was a nice touch).

The reality is this is a site with a lot of tables and a lot of chat going on - The software blocks the obvious but we all know there are ways around it if you want to abuse - I don't think its reasonable to expect PKR to monitor all of this, however I do think that its down to players to report inappropriate behaviour - for sure some people use the emotes in an annoying fashion but we should live with that its part of the site - but if its true abuse - use the live support option - from what I've seen the response is good and that will be the only way to get shot of the muppets who think its acceptable - Do you think your local casino would put up with some of the comments being made here if you're sat at a live table? (Of course the reality is most of these spineless wonders would lack the backbone to make such a comment to someones face anyway).

Use the Live support and report it!
