So...how is this offensive? Im sure its not near as offensive as the millions of railbirds typing "GIVE ME $5 NOW" and all that crap. What are the odds of my getting my chat back within 24 hours? 72 hours?

Honestly, you should just tell them who you are. Otherwise, enjoy waiting out the month. They took my chat away for a month about 3 weeks ago cause I asked Ram Vaswani when he was going to pay Phil Ivey back. I sent about 3 e-mails complaining and I thought I made some pretty good arguments (i.e - how come Paris Hilton only did a week for driving drunk and I get a month for being inquisitive) and they basically said they treat their pros better than a normal person like me. I posted about it here but the moderator took it down for some reason (and then banned me here for 3 days).
