Not necessarily. You list Titan as a site where you play. I have seen Titan enforce it. All you have to do is whistle up their Live Support and report it. |

Never seen cheating due to use of native speaking in the chat.. I speak a few languages.
However I do undertand that all will find it more comfortly if all use same language. I like everybody else I do not like abusive language like the one posted, and stuff like that I would report, at least mail a screenie to support. |

I have seen Poker Stars enforce the language rule on occasions; never on FTP though.

Chat Ban
I got chat ban for saying that America is superior to China to David Chui... it is amazing what some of these ignorant a$$holes can say and do and nothing is done about it... I guess just as long as FT makes their money and takes care of sponsors... "It doesn't matter".
BTW I was chat ban for 30 1 Calendar Month... next time its permanent! My Two Cents, Moe. ![]() |

I find it funny when people start cursing in Spanish,Chinese or Pakistani..or whatever language they speak. Many of those people don't understand any English to realize that it's only English on the tables ![]() Quote:

Oh, and maybe a more fitting complaint would be about Mexico. Officially they are the United Mexican States (according to their current constitution), but no on seems to complain when they just call themselves Mexico and refer to themselves as Mexicans. So anyway, since you are clearly using bad information, stop hating on America (which actually IS a great country to live in despite any problems we have). Again, my apologies for the derail. |

I though it was one of the rules and if so that means it is just not being enforced. I have heard about people getting chat banned or even losing accounts for somethings that are not even listed in the rules and then other things get ignored. Maybe it is depends on who handles it that day. Who knows........lol

Hmm. If you had settled for saying that he deserved it because he insulted the other fellow`s homeland and that is rude, we could all agree. Unfortunately, in making your point, you have been equally rude yourself. Not clever, imo. |

Is FullTilt English Only site?
I know that PokerStars is supposed to be English Only, but is FullTilt?
PS does not always enforce EO though. My best, Wally |

I get amused while reading other peeps' chats...esp in another language. I usually only write polite things when I communicate with others & many do get away with a lot of things there, esp. when not in English! If it says English only, I would hope that others would use English, but some don't even know English...if they can't read it, they may not know not to use their own language.

People piss me off if they speak foreign languages in the chat. Personally im not much of a chatter at the table. Unless someone is speaking complete BS, and i feel i must correct them. But i believe that chat at the tables should be kept to one language when possible.

About the Chui incident
David Chui started this crap with me... I was railing a buddy at a final table and he told me to stfu... so I said what the hell dude I'm just cheering on my buddy... He then proceeded out of the blue to call me a "cheeseburger eating ignorant american with nothing better to do"... So yeah I brought up the superiority factor of the United States of America... and got chat ban... he also called me a f**er...
So all in all.. yeah both in the wrong... but I was less harsh than he was to me FOR NO REASON! Take it or leave it... it's in the past now. Moe ![]() |

this thread inspired me to see what someone from latvia said when i shoved all in on his blind. can't remember the word now but it translated to a strong vulgar word for homosexual....so i said "haaaa-aaaaay!" in chat. he didn't see the hand gesture...i don't think he got it...oh well. smooches!

English is the most universal language, and it is rude to speak any other language at the table. Not because one language is suppior to the other, but as somone said before they generally teach it globally in the school systems, and it is the most widely accepted language.

On Sunday the 18th I was playing Full Tilt's Double Deuce MTT ($168 itm) and there was Russian player constantly rambling on in his language in the chat box. A player from Great Brittan finally told him, "This is an English only site and if you don't stop I will report you." The guy payed him no mind and kept on rambling. About 20 or so hands later, the Russian guy, who was the chip leader at our table, just disappeared as if his table was switched, but when I immediately looked him up, he was "finished". I am 100% sure not enough time had lapsed for him to have played a hand and busted out on another table, so I can only conclude that he was booted from the tournament.

I was playing a tourney at Titan earlier and one guy was giving instructions to another in either spanish or potugese, i give live chat a bell and report it,,
they said the best they could do was give him a warning, he kept it up , they said they warned him, didnt hear a word from him after that |
