jbird - You're right. Suggesting "die" to someone is not name calling.

Somehow it seems worse.

That's just my opinion. Evidently you see nothing wrong in it.

However, please don't tell people I was name calling and derogatory when I wasn't.

[/ QUOTE ]Perhaps there's a better description for "die" as a response to a post. At any rate the comment seemed inappropriate and non-constructive, and so I deleted it.

derrogatory! if telling someone to jam it is not inappropriate I don't know what is

[jbird]

Ribbo, just to be clear, I don't really want you to die. I actually like most of your posts and very much enjoyed your videos, particularly your accent. I typed 'die' in response to your winning $18k last week because I'm stuck rebuilding at $50 PLO and I made $450 last week. So mostly, it was because I'm jealous of your success. The 'die' was a good-hearted sarcastic comment designed to get a chuckle.

My original (deleted) post was 3 words long, and the other two were:

graph plz

Since I don't really want you to die, and hopefully you are still alive, I'd still love to see that graph.

I observed some of your tables tonight for a moment Ribbo and what an egohead you are. LOL @ your table coaching. I´ll join your tables tomorrow, c ya!

[Buzz]

CrushinFelt - "Jam it" in the context in which it was used is suggesting a full raise to the poster to whom the response was made (LearnedfromTV).

At least that is how I take it.

It's not derogatory at all.

p.s. I hope our discussion isn't considered derogatory because then it will be deleted.

Troll_Inc - I will explain how I came to be moderator of this forum.

My interest is primarily in limit-Omaha-8 and I post primarily in the Omaha-8 forum. However, some high concepts of Omaha-8 are obviously related to Omaha-high and I do understand and have played Omaha-high (limit, pot-limit, and no-limit).

However, I only rarely play Omaha-high and thus have had nothing worthwhile to contribute to this forum. I don’t recall ever having seen Omaha-high offered as a ring game in any casinos in which I have played.

I agreed to take over for Felicia, the moderator of the Omaha-8 forum, while she recovers. When I agreed, I somehow was not thinking that Felicia also moderated this Omaha-high forum. Perhaps I should have thought more about that. But no matter; I would have agreed anyhow.

And that is how I came to be moderator of the Omaha-high forum. And since I have agreed to do the job, my intention is to do the job. However, I might not moderate in the way you think it should be done.

It’s offensive and insulting to me for you to refer to me as a “clown” in the post to which I am replying. Do that to someone else, and if I see it, so long as I am moderator here, I’ll delete your post. It won’t be deleted with malice, but simply as part of the task of moderating this forum in the way I think I should moderate it.

You’re correct that I made a mistake in my first post on this forum. I’m obviously not mistake-proof. I’ll do as well as I can, and try to correct any future errors I make when I realize I am in error and can correct them.
