Those who have turned chat off are missing out on a ton of chips, waiting to be collected by those who are paying attention.
Chat - trash talkers are EXTREMELY spewy and if the opportunity presents itself where you can isolate the trash talker, you can take all his/her chips with less than premium hands. These players are maniac aggro players and are just looking to give away all there chips to someone who wants them.
TILT also comes forth in chat. When a player can recognize the change in play of a solid player after he takes a bad beat or looses consecutive hands, they TILT hard and are just looking to give away chips with marginal holdings.
Chat is information - same as watching someone's facial expressions and mannerisms in live events.
Players can choose to stay in their protective bubbles when they play. I prefer to collect as much info on my opponents as I can and chat is just one additional source of information .

it was seen new members who do not know what respect is in a certain community
more like I did not notice
all club players behave with respect to each other at the table without expressing emotion rudeness
chat is mostly always silence
just do not pay attention to these players

Very true, most people would not say that to your face. They are just hiding behind their computers coz there is not consequences.

I don’t know
I witness this several times and I just feel pity for these people. If you see them in person probably they can’t even talk to you

To be honest I am guilty of sometimes berating people in the chat. As many others have written, its tilt. It happen, when I am frustrated about losing, and then I write things like “nice hand fish”, “donkey” or something in that ballpark.
Its a bad idea for many different reasons. First of all its rude, and I would not behave like that in a live game, so why do it online. This is the same problem, we see with all social media. Because we are sitting in front of our screen, many people write things, they would never say to a person face to face.
Second its typically bad players, who get berated, and the last thing, we want bad players to do, is to become better, or to feel embarrassed and stop playing. So why give free poker lessons at the table. After all I would not have complained about their bad play, if I won that hand, where they chased to hard after some ridiculous draw, so I am just being a bad loser.
Finally it inform the entire table, you are tilting, which makes you an obvious target for anyone paying attention. So if you feel that urge to let someone know, what a huge donkey he is, its probably a better idea to sit out and take a break, until you have calmed yourself down. That can be anything from 10 minutes to several days, depending on how bad the tilt is.

pokerstars rules forbid insulting other players, but I saw a lot of people insult other's. I once saw a player wishing for another player to get cancer because he beat him. Incredible.

Most people have a hard time bearing a tough beat or loss, I personally use to be like that but as I've grown a little older I've found ways to cope with all that pent up anger. Poker is something that I enjoy because it's such a beautiful game with so much to offer

I don't ever trash talk , players I look at it as gambling. Players play certain hands they feel they can win. I dont ever respond to trash talking. I just ingore everything people say, or complain hands i play. I look at it as, it is my call and no one can tell me what to play or hands i should call with.

Or if someone just made a really bad play and lost a big pot, then send him a trophy and hope, it put him on tilt. Its fairly childish, but its less bad than typing something in the chat. Have to admit, that I missed the feature, when I recently went back to Stars LOL.
