A question? Posted by QueenStacy (VIP) Jan 2 2012 8:54AM Please people answer me a small query I have. Am I imagining it or do some people take this game far too seriously??? an opinion Posted by JET_I (VIP) Jan 2 2012 9:08PM all serious players should ----drop and go to pool pro"s obedience training. Or drink more alcohol while playing Quite Layed Back Actually Posted by LADY_AWE (VIP) Jan 2 2012 9:24PM Most of the time, seriousness rears its head around the 25th of each month. Ladder climbers are the most notorious. However, this room is nothing like it used to be. Caring about the outcome of a friendly game of pool was the rarity. Money games flourished ... party atmosphere you could depend on ... exhibition tourneys where big dogs strutted their stuff ... chat bent on entertaining the room ... AHHHHH THOSE WERE THE DAYZ! Who can walk down memory lane with me? Anyone left out there??? LA ... Posted by Smokin8s Jan 4 2012 10:43AM :) walking down memory lane Posted by tenacsweetheart Jan 7 2012 2:20AM yes those was the days when you could not wait to get on pool you thought you had friends on here when you enjoyed the chat as much as you did the game those days are gone forever memory lane Ahhhhhh Posted by Steelgate Jan 7 2012 11:57AM Yes I agree the fun and laughter has long since gone which is a shame, so many decent players have deserted pool for that very reason, that, and the stupidity over Ladder Challenges by those few who try to sabatage players (how obvious are they !!). Shame I think for those who make the effort, and ALL for the right reasons, in the name of fun, to climb the ladder and improve their games ..... BUT NO there are still those few childish misguided and SAD individuals who seek to annoy, infuriate, spoil and turn a perfectly good sport into somthing distasteful. Come on all, lets get this pool room back as it was !!! I miss it. Let the Good rule over Evil. Jane. :) Well said Posted by QueenStacy (VIP) Jan 22 2012 2:02PM Thank you Jane, I could not have put it any better myself!!!!! The good Old Days Posted by Stockbroker (VIP) Jan 25 2012 9:22PM I miss them. It was fun, exciting, and competitive! Maybe those days will never be back, but they were fun while they were here :) old days Posted by EAGLE_0WL (VIP) Feb 1 2012 10:42AM Im back old days Posted by SilverWaters (VIP) Feb 1 2012 11:51AM Bout time too lol. Welcome back Eagle. :))) Facebook Group Posted by bluetulip (VIP) Feb 9 2012 12:28AM Our group has been archived. If you want to re-join it would be great to see you. Well?? Posted by QueenStacy (VIP) Apr 8 2012 12:06PM After reading the challenges, put up by the usual suspects, AKA the people I started this forum about, I find myself asking once more. Is there far too much seriousness and if I'm honest aggression put into the challenges made to the players who sit in the top ladder slots?. It all seems a little too much for a web site designed for people to play games and chat doesn't it!!!!! NOT A PROBLEM IN OTHER ROOMS Posted by LADY_AWE (VIP) Apr 8 2012 3:16PM I frequently play multiple ladders here at GC. This room is the only one where people get all personal and retaliatory. I can never understand whats the challenge of it all. In gin there are rarely challenges posted ... do you know why? Because everyone plays everyone!!! The same goes for BG. I guess there will always be little cliques who manage to manuever to the top ten and then only play each other fairly, frequently and friendly. I miss the players who play everyone whether they are outstanding, beginners or old souls. To avoid the frustrations of those cliquers, I just don't hang in here much anymore. Sad :( Your Question Stacy ..... Posted by SilverWaters (VIP) Apr 9 2012 8:19AM I agree with you ..... As Gandhi sort of said plus my "bonehead" input lol ........ Strength does not come from "WINNING" but you develop strength of character and decide not to conform to the "masses" ........ THAT IS STRENGTH !!!! :) :) :)Be your own person and enjoy what should be a fun game !!!!! DaRingMaster Posted by stageinharmony (VIP) Apr 9 2012 5:43PM How interesting, you come over as nice and friendly in your post, yet when we played in a gin tournament 2 weeks ago I didn't even get a hello out of you...................An off day perhaps? My Own Imperfections Posted by LADY_AWE (VIP) Apr 9 2012 10:31PM I am sorry Pauline ... but you are right. Frequently I choose to not greet or congratulate my opponents. It is not meant to be punitive. But I realize now it comes off rude. And that REALLY doesn't work for me. So, friendlier and chattier will be a new focus. I know you and Patricia are great gals who always display classiness. I shall join you (again) :) |
