I think poker sites should sanction them automatically, although I admit that in my early days in poker I was sometimes one of those

Lots of the online poker sites have no chat at all now . It's actually sad and lonely without conversation , even though some of it used to be quite unpleasant .

I am convinced that any insults during the game are unacceptable. Such stupid behavior only shows the lack of upbringing and hysterical nature of the player. Unfortunately, among the members of our community there are sometimes such players, but our administrators can easily explain to them how to behave.

Hello friend, the truth is that it is very embarrassing to see that there are players who behave like this, but it happens. I think that most of them are players who are starting to learn about poker because, as we already know, in one hand you go up and in the other you go down. It's something of the game that they have to get used to, it's going to happen, for me, because it's the first time, the sites should give a warning, the second time a warning of a ban if this is done again and the third time I ban it completely. Regards

I think they are bad losers, if I want to play for example with 43 because I have a precentile, I can do it and maybe the flop is A25 and they don't have to get angry.

A lot of people play poker, some have a nasty character and unfortunately not everyone knows how to restrain their emotions, someone specifically wants to piss you off, you have to try not to pay attention to such people, although sometimes it is very difficult to do.

I think such players should not sit down at the tables because they are mentally unhealthy

It is funny how many obnoxious players are very brave when they have a screen and keyboard between them and other players when they are on-line, yet if you met them in a live game they would act like a Church Mouse! and you wouldn't hear a squeak from them.
The best action to take is just ignore these Cowards, Block them in chat, and eventually they will usually disappear, like an annoying Gnat!

They are mentally and sometimes spiritually unbalanced people. If it affects you in any way, you need to block all possibilities.
The site will never do anything against it, even because the imbalance is good, as it results in profit.

I think they are very unpleasant and rude people. Their goal is to unbalance us so that we emotionally start making mistakes that will lead us to lose. Therefore, we need to learn not to react to such disgusting behavior by these players and accept this as part of the poker game.

I don't pay attention, because words behind a computer are cowardly or frustrated people. Live is different, these people have to be severely punished, I've seen cases of players throwing chips at the dealer, and that's disgusting.

For some it is a way to vent the anger of losing, but this way of acting should be sanctioned. at least with momentary expulsions.

This is sad! In all sports, there must be respect between opponents! This is a basic principle of competition and sports practice!

I turn off the chat. I think this is a problem for those players who write, the distance allows them to do such things, in life I think they will not do this or they can pay dearly for it .

Such players definitely deserve to be punished. Rude behavior at the table, unfortunately, is quite common. There were such players in our community, but as I understood, they are no longer with us.

I don't like it. I want to enjoy my time at the poker table with pleasant, friendly people who are trying to take each other's chips but with fun and decency.

I think it's very poor and very unprofessional in the formal sense.
If you have a problem with someone in a live game, maybe sit out for a few hands and calm down, rather than vent your anger with insults.
That said, it can be annoying when you end up on a table with a real pain in the arse player, but I think too much vengeance, will impact your game negatively, because you're not concentrating on the game, but on the player....

I guess it depends on how bad the insults are.

If it's just somebody talking some shit, then whatever. However, if it gets way over the top or threatening then kick them out immediately.
