online games...

  • OK, I admit, I love to play Pinochle and Canasta online once in awhile, I'm even a TD for tourneys for Pinochle league I'm in.

    I just went to play a friendly game of Canasta where my opponent kept scarfing every card, I had to laugh. Next thing I know my opp. was telling me she hacked into my account and there WILL be someone knocking at my door, with a gun, and will not miss!???

    What in the world are these people thinking? I mean, I really didn't do anything other than think she was funny!
  • wow....that's insane loriann. What are people thinking. And who knows now a days...many people have the ability to do that. Sorry to hear a friendly game turned dirty. That sucks and makes me think twice about playing on line games.
  • I admit gator, I blew her off. I have a mac and getting that sort of information is a tad bit harder. Though she did go inactive long enough to be able to do it if she's computer savvy. If she does, then I'll be singing Holy Holy Holy face to face with Christ!
  • definately love the macs for that reason. Even if she/he was joking...its still pretty stupid and pathetic!.
  • That's crazy talk!

    If there were some sort of admin service, I'd report the user... you don't just say things like that to people.
  • I have to admit, something told me not to play with her when I read her name... Im_here_to_annoy_you_all

    I think I will tell admin, but I didn't get a screen shot?!
  • Doesn't matter. Some sites have the ability to track everything that's written from a user. So there may not be any hiding it.

    Either way, report it. Maybe she's had other incidents, too.
  • OK, I did find an abuse form and reported her! Thanks faerie!

    I can't believe people get so offended simply because you think they are funny. And all I said to her before she snaped was "lol"... thats IT!!!!
  • Maybe she was really invested in that game! The internet gets all the whackos
  • I've seen some voltures in there, like I refuse to play pinochle in Adv 10 because of how they play, even cheat! I can't imagine playing a game if it meant I was under that kind of stress all the time, or that I had to cheat! LOL, people really are amazing.
  • Sounds to me from just hearing what his/her name was that he/she was there to annoy ya no matter what. I guess that is the way they went about it!
  • yeah, but thats more than annoying, thats harrassment! That's threatening to kill! My son was expelled one year because he said under his breath "I'm gonna kill her" (in my day that was just steam blowing, as is what he was doing). Threatening with a gun like that isn't something to do lightly. If what she wants is attention, she's getting it! I only wish I had a screen shot!
  • I've played Scrabble and some of it's variations online for years, but I've never had that loony opponents. Usually I don't bother with chit-chat, so maybe they've gone unnoticed.
