Why are opponents super unfriendly in Online games?

euro fish · Nov 27, 2015

Has anyone ever asked themselves why your oponents online are super unfriendly , rude and just idiots ? Does anyone have an explanation for this ? Is it just because they can be ?

AlbieTross · Nov 27, 2015

Not all of them are. Every once in awhile I'll find a nice guy and have a good time chatting with him. Other times there are the over-confident donks that think they're so great. Most of the time I just block their chat.

Many of them are bad loosers . so the best way to avoid is just disable your chat box.. so u cant see anything they write. gl

Angry virgins lol.

I think being anonymous just sitting behind a computer screen allows many to act the way they do but then again I've seen pros on tv and video act very badly also.

Its hard to justify on-line players actions.

Get amongst some regular players, like CC freerolls and community style games.
The world cup poker comp on here was great for getting to know fello CCers.

Otherwise ... just bloke chat from the one you dont like.

all teaching materials poker where he says, that you pay more attention to play well and win money, which has become a friend.

Because they think they are hulignas

Cardschat members are very frendly people.

Possibly the same reason cyberbullying exists: It's anonymous, and at this point there are no repercussions.

BTW, rude behavior exist when playing live, just not as extreme.

Cheers!

Well, someone already mentioned the anonymous thing so, that's why.. others from so called 1st world countries think they're greater thank ppl in less rich country and that will give them the impression they can say anything they want.

vwls · Nov 30, 2015

NKGB13, why do you think that that is the reason?

Lourivaldo · Nov 30, 2015

Claims for bad beat is what most annoys me. Basically most of the time is that I see in the chat.

Yep - I think it is the anonymous thing - their true colors come out when nobody knows who they are.

Lots of people just like to troll to get a reaction out of you and possibly throw you off your game

teepack · Nov 30, 2015

It is very easy to be rude when there are no consequences to your action.

HenriqueMed1 · Nov 30, 2015

It has many nice players to talk. And when you find some arrogant player just lock it.

PershingSt · Nov 30, 2015

It is a product of the internet and the anonymity that comes with it . This has only been made worse by stuff like Bovada no screen names etc . When someone is actually in front of you it is much more difficult for most humans to be total *****s , but given a little bit on anonymity there tends to be more *****s . . .

seems to be half and half in my experience

mrbigbug · Dec 1, 2015

Its typical attitude of online players/pool at all

joe777 · Dec 1, 2015

Just turn off the chat to avoid any distractions.

ribbybruno · Dec 1, 2015

Most good, confident players don't say a whole lot! They just snap up your chips!

11012015 · Dec 1, 2015

Try to put yourself in their shoes and you get an answer.

fordman427 · Dec 1, 2015

bad losers plus it's a lot easier to be tough towards other players from behind the computer screen

ScottieDuncan · Dec 1, 2015

I haven't noticed such on CC games. CC players are the most considerate and pleasant players online, I think. Some of the online sites do have idiots, though.

Delenia · Dec 1, 2015

I think the anonymous aspect has a lot to do with it. Just the fact that they can't see you face to face is a big factor too. People are usually a lot nicer when they have to look you in the face.
