word of warning

[jimmysymtex]

It seems a bit unfair that people can treat fellow members in this way without first finding out the facts...Passwords will never be 100% safe and passwords will always leak out.BETRAYED....INFILTRATED....PATHETIC....IDIOT.. ..... Come on guys grow up...The thing that amazes me about this site is the fact that these same people proclaim OP66 to be the "FAMILY" "FRENDLIEST"....when in fact its not at all that way...Iam not a member of this group and its not any of my business who does or who does not enter or "infiltrate" it,but One thing is fact,the person you lot are calling these things to does not deserve this.....

i have to say you spot on with this post jimmy

now i do not know which player this thread was aimed at but i believe the tourny isnt on till the 17th so i really do not understand this thread at all

yes the tourny is ment to be private but with 2 days to go is there any point acting like kids? 2days is more than enough time to keep this private and sort any issues via pm..this is just silly in every sense

i agree with you jimmy and it hurts me more that it has come to this,but you would know with the international tourny how annoying this is but have tried to relay this to sal but as yet no reply,i never wanted to know names just to try and stop un invited players turning up on tables

If you have learned how to disagree without being disagreeable, then you have discovered the secret of getting along.

I do know how frustrating it is to have uninvited guests in a invitational tourny Tel...Unfortunately passwords are not and never will be 100% safe.....Sally more then anyone else knows this also,with her involvment in the international series...While we would all like to be "BEST BUDDIES" here and no matter how hard we try,that is not impossible.For One reason or another,a member who Sally says is here since time began,asked her for the password instead of yourself or Jimmy.If it was a mistake for her to give the password,Iam sure it was a very honest One and Sally been the person she is was only trying to help................................... Anyone who is close to Sally will know her Father is very seriously ill.I have just received a phone call from Sally telling me he has been rushed to hospital as I type....I would ask everyone to think of them both right now and keep them both in your prayers...

hope her dads ok jimmy keep us posted hun...thoughts are with sally and her family..

[morgan68]

whose god or should that be gold : sorry

[unclepony11]

ok, first and most IMPORTANTLY i wish to pass on my best wishes to sally, her father and the rest of the family at this difficult time. Sal, you know you are in in my thoughts and prayers.

Secondly i have recently joined the "originals of OP66" group (this morning) and i am now going to remove myself from from it, as i do not want to be part of a group that treats people in such a way. Rest assured your PRECIOUS password will NOT be disclosed by me to ANYONE whatsoever.

i think ur bein a bit dramatic here tony! yeah other ppl have gone over the top maybe but they only acted in this way because this private game was set up for certain ppl, if ppl wanna join then it should be down to them to contact tel or jim! of course sally wasnt tryin to unfair in givin password but we all had to ask to play so wht makes other ppl different?..

ur not the bad guy tel...if ppl wanted to play they should of asked you like we all did! no offence to sally ment..

[rad6]

all I can say is, here we go again lol! People it's only a game! No matter how hard we try these gatecrashers will get in, it happens all the time. Can't we all get along pls.

[unclepony11]

seem to me that prior to sally's post stating that she had given the password to someone, quite a lot of people were calling for a severe punishment to be handed out to the person responsible. After sally's post however these post seem to have turned in the opposite direction. Since post #19 i have seen no mention of a ban/punishment etc.........stinks of double standards to me! But only MY OPINION!

Sally, if you read this hunni, this is in no way meant against you but just trying to point out the double standards involved with some people on here

I agree strongly

now i do not under no circumstances feel any punishment should come into effect for this or for any reason a player joining a game 2days early..a simple pm is needed thats all..no need to create such a fuss over it.

[69kindagal]

THIS IS A JOKE! yeah ppl over reacted so wht?. it happens! like none of you ever have eh?! why does it always end in arguments? someone leavin? why cant things be sorted out in a adult way?.. double standards or not, the person who wanted to play should have gone about it the right way like we all had to!! and ban is harsh i agree..this last im sayin on this cos its jus f**kin pointless and waste of time!

now i agree with this also..in no way was this sorted maturely it just turned to bashing the players. im glad to see ya think the ban is harsh and i also agree this was a waste of time

surely most people have common sense, so,hearing of sa11ys
unfortunate news should highlight how petty things are and bring a bit of perspective to this,there are more important things to worry about in everbodies lives which other people on this site don't know about, so before anyone slags off anybody, just pause for thought before you type, not everyones lives are rosy !!!!!!
With that said most people fully understand the time and effort that members put in to organise a private tourney, i can appreciate how annoying gatecrashers are, but in the main they are mistakes or misunderstandings, and for the person on the end of it, some remarks are not pleasant. I should know !!!!!!!

WE LEARN BY MAKING MISTAKES !!!!!!!!!

i couldnt care less who comes along as long as it ie enjoyable

At the very least wait till you get to the facts of the matter.

Well said Captain, if only they'd done as you said there wouldn't have been any problems or fallouts.

[3XIT]

For me this is by far the best, honest, and in perspective post...this forum used to be about understanding and acceptance not about accusations,intolerance and mayhaps missunderstandings.... My thoughts and heart are with Sally and her father may all work to a speady recovery..And the silly spoken word/s should be shelved and put to bed..
My opinion no more no less,
