Default the art of conversation is dead :(

i noticed on tables that nobody really converses any more
it now seems to be......
wd
nh
n1
gl
gg
i tried to talk to people but i did not seem to get any cnversation at all
is it now all about the poker and nothing to do with friendship?
what happened here?
do we no longer talk to each other unless it only involves typing 2 letters?
as an old timer here i find this very saddening
we had a great community here and it seems to be disappearing very fast
bring back chat
if it means it is only on tables and not in that beloved chat room we had, then so be it
but please, all those that know and love this site....for goodness sake....use more than 2 letters please?
lets try to make this place as friendly as we used to know it
i plead with you, as a friend
bring back the community spirit we had and i know we can have
we are the only on es that can save us from being extinct
what we have is very different to any other site and please lets not lose it
your friend
Bobble

but for real.....noboday actuaslly chats anymore
it is sad
this was and can be the greatest site online
we just need others to remember or aknowledge this
i have been here forever and seen many changes
but it is the people not the site that makes a place feel like home
open the door and let your neighbour in
your friend
Bobble

I must admit it does seem a bit quite sometimes on the tables. I think it depends on who is there at the time. This past week just about every table I've been on has had a fair bit of chat. Mostly people telling me to shut up and go away lol. nah just kidding. I've been cracking up these last few days over some of the conversations during games.

Anyway I'd better shut up now because this adds up to 177 letters too many!

Sometimes I just dont like to chat,other times I do,just depends on the conversation at the time.I really dont play in tourneys to chat though,honestly im there to try and win the thing.Should I make it to the final table I usally get real quiet.But for me,chat if you like or dont chat if you like,makes no difference to me.

Best way to keep a conversation going on this site is to say an innuendo about someone with an 'attractive' avatar, then let the jokes fly once they bite the bait (which they always do)

Had to endure such convo's at my table and, I dont know if it's an age thing here, but it kinda sickens me... I know it's for fun and all but, sometimes I wonder

Perhaps sometimes ur on the wrong tables bobble

Yea I was Bobble and I remember it well, it was great. It's a shame that having a 'better' script ended up meaning the cock ups along the way would cause lots of people to leave and have a negative impact on the whole site vibe.

('better' = overall the jury is still out on that one I reckon)
