My Email Exchange With Full Tilt After Chat Ban

Hats off to Full Tilt, for looking past the anger in my reply, accepting the facts and changing their decision.  I really didn't expect it but here it is...  by the way, anyone else ever have their chat revoked?  Why?

MY REPLY:

Excuse me, but there were DOZENS of people insanely
talking non-stop... everything was just flying by the window
at a pace that could hardly even be read.  I typed BLAH BLAH
BLAH like 3 or 4 times as a joke because I thought it was
funny and you're telling me my chat is revoked for a month?

WRONG... get a supervisor, please.  I realize that you have
your "job" to do... but I'm not a child.  I was just horsing around
a little and I made it clear that I've never been malicious nor harmful
to anyone and that I'd take care not to do anything that could
even remotely be misconstrued as disruptive in the future.  I just want my
chat back..

...so PLEASE, get a supervisor who has the authority to go over
this and cut me some slack here.  Losing chat for a month over
something so damn benign is absolutely ridiculous.  So many
little kid trash talkers grace full tilt tables but when you have an
adult who was just minorly horsing around on one occasion,
you throw the house at him.

Find someone who can respond in an enlightened manner.  Whether
you need me or not, I'm currently a paying customer, not a poker
kiddie.  And a one month suspension for something so ridiculously
harmless is both disproportionate and unacceptable.

Please forward this to someone who comprehends that.

Thank you...

THEIR MOST RECENT RESPONSE:

Hello Sam,

Thank you for contacting Full Tilt Poker Support.

Sam, we have gone ahead and reinstated your chat and we apologize for
the inconvenience.  This happened because repeating the same word over
and over is considered spamming which results in action taken on your
chat privileges.  Please refrain from doing that and you won't have
future issues at all.  If it is reported to us that you are continuing
to spam, your chat privileges may be taken away, Sam.  Thanks so much
for your understanding.

Best of luck on the tables, and if there's anything else we can help
with, please let us know.

Regards,
******

Sam,

Ive had my chat banned on tilt for 2 yrs now. If you can write a letter on my behalf that will get them to reinstate my chat I will send you $100.

FYI all I did was call Paul Wolf a retarded muppet.

Tyvm,

You have to be when you're dealing with condescending douches, you condescending douche.

Well, at the risk of sounding like a condescending douche again, lol, because I KNOW they generally copy/paste Terms of Service sections into emails, I was specifically asking for an "enlightened" response.  In MANAGEMENT terms, which I don't expect non-cust-serv people to understand, "enlightened" simply means "unburdened"... or someone who is free to make exceptions or to review the context of a situation.

But here's the bottom line, cp... I'M THE ****ING CUSTOMER.... when they ban my chat for typing "blah blah blah" ... or when they ban Cortez chat for typing... "99999999!"  "9999999!" to support his friend... or when they ban CoolKeith for calling a moderator a "retarded muppet" (oh that's just so mean!), then THEY are the ones who are condescending douches... not me...

If I were such a condescending douche, why'd they reinstate my chat.... were they afraid of me? lol

I would call you a condescending douche but you weren't condescending... just a douche. ;-) j/k

I hear ya, Alex... but I wouldn't consider that crying.  It's a simple email exchange.  I guess I'm just one of those people who feels that he shouldn't be penalized for not having done something wrong. Others can lay down and take it like a b**** if they want... but not me.

Besides, I know a bunch of people on there and not having chat can suck sometimes.
