WHAT ON EARTH IS GOING ON IN THE POOL HALL????

Hey fellow players, can you answer this one for me??? What is up with all the fighting, name calling and harassing going on in pool lately? I thought this was supposed to be a fun time to be had but, lately, it's getting ridiculous. Verbal wars in the hall, people being harassed without provocation and the arrogant attitude of some of the players; the old "I'm the best player here" garbage. Can we please stop this nonsense? If I were a new player looking for a place to shoot pool, all these things would make me reconsider playing here. I thought this was a place we could come, shoot some pool and make a few friends.
We ALL need to lighten up, myself included. Let's remember: IT'S ONLY A GAME!!!
Can I have your thoughts on this??
Amen on the lighten up ;

At GameColony.com you can play games of skill only -- play for free or play for $prizes!.
According to the statutes of most states in the United States, gambling is defined as: "risking something of value upon the outcome of a contest of chance". (Also see No Gambling!). The skill (as opposed to chance) is predominant in games of skill. Playing games of skill for $prizes, therefore, has nothing to do with gambling as it is not a contest of chance -- the more skillful player will win far more often. The chance element of a 'gamble' is either insignificant or missing. When players compete in tournaments or games of skill for $prizes -- it is "competitive entertainment" rather then "gambling". The more skilled winner will always win more matches, tournaments and $prizes.
