Default Re: hiv and shaundeeb are total scum

Victor,

I think there's often a level of scumminess to it, but there are degrees.

A "named" Full Tilt pro is different than a regular anonymous username and having a different player playing the "named" account is scummier.

It is far scummier when someone claims to be a specific person as opposed to their opponent making an assumption.

To me, the main question of scumminess comes down to whether or not you lied outside the context of the game.

Had jman asked the guy "Is this Patrik Antonius playing?" and the guy said "No." then I would consider that much scummier than what apparently happened.

Obviously, there are tons of degrees/variations of what I'm saying. I think there's a spectrum between "normally expected behavior in online games" and "straight out lying/scamming someone" in terms of scumminess degree.
