im not happy with all the argueing and bickering amongst the players when you win the game. It's just a game and good sports are very much appreciated.



Setting an example. :)

The best way to deal with a bad attitude is to set our own "attitude" to one of courtesy and respect. GameColony is a cut above some of the other sites and I think by setting a good example of what is GameColony standards is the best way to "teach" these folks how we play here. Often they will follow our example. However, if we allow those who behave inappropriately to "set the standard" by lashing back at them, we lower our standards. There are ways to deal with this immediately however. Use the mute tool. /m (player name) and "enter" will mute the player who is offensive. The other players can also "teach" by simply not playing games with those few who are behaving inappropriately. They will soon learn that if they want to play with the better players they must comply with our minimum standards of conduct. Hope this helps. :) Enjoy your games and by all means don't let a few bad apples spoil your experience in the games.

I agree with MADoolin! Win or lose, if someone is not a good sport, I add them to my personal "ban list" and don't play them again! Before I leave the table, I let them know, they will not be welcome to play with me anymore. Perhaps then they might reconsider their behavior, for any future players.
