    I'm at the final table of the 200+15 at UB and have my chat off. I've been doing this for a while now and I like it a lot. I'm going to continue to keep the chat off at all of my tables. I'm adopting the Sailor Lobell approach, for at least the forseeable future. I wanted to post this because I don't want people thinking I'm rude or ignoring them. I really appreciate the support of so many people, but I'm finding this to be quite positive.

    I've kept my chat turned off for quite some time too.

    I just never considered making a thread about it.

    Sailor lobell approach?

    I also self-banned my chat at FTP, so I can't talk even if I wanted to, found that my concentration is much much better

    I do this sometimes too. I often wish you could do it live and mute people, sort of like Adam Sandler in <span>Click</span>... but starring you, and me, at the World Series... and I'm just tossing this one out as a brainstorm, but I'm thinking of a good title here, picture it... <span>Chipped</span>. Let's make this happen.

    I used to have a penchant for trash talking, so from now on when I play I just immediately click on the stats or info box on the stars tabs on the bottom so I am not tempted to be an asshole.

    What ever happened to "not denying who you are" like you talked about in this Frustration article http://www.pocketfives.com/9C7D7E02-...271FA474E.aspx

    Just busting your balls as usual..

    But in all honesty, its probably a good move and I do turn my chat off regularly if I get the urge to start typing nonsense in the chat box.
