    This thread will not be met with a good reaction from a lot of people, nor do i expect it to, but i'm gone beyond caring. I ll prolly get a ban too which I will regret but hey what can I do.

    I have a question....How many people in Dublin does XYZ owe money to. Im just trying to get a number on the list to see how far down it I am.... And if i ever stand a chance of getting re paid.

    Please no patronising posts about ''neither a borrower nor a lender be''... I still have a few people I know in poker who I would gladly lend to if they were stuck. The above mentioned obviously does not make my short list

    You are such an idiot posting that up here. Don't know you or the other party concerned but this is way out of line.

    A life ban would be good imo.

    Actually I dont even really know the guy and I think this is ridiculous. I feel pretty strongly about this too for some reason.

    I dont know you Jay but ****ing hell, on a public internet forum? That most of if not all of the dublin regs read?

    Youre way outta line, if you wanted to talk to him that bad Im sure someone would have put you in contact with him. Im not one for publicly humiliating people and this is ****ing ridiculous.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,696 ✭✭✭Hectorjelly


    How do you know Jay hasnt tried to contact him?

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,039 ✭✭✭Theresalwaysone


    I dont, and I dont know the ins and outs of it Daragh nor do I want to. But this is really really bad form.

    Now humiliating someone like this seems totally wrong, but yet I have ppl insinuating im busto(when I'm clearly not) allllll the time on these boards.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,282 ✭✭✭Bandara


    If Jay (who is an absolute gentleman imo) has genuinely tried everything to get his money loaned in good faith back, then its the fault of the person named that this has been posted.

    Its taken a lot to have Jay resort to posting this I'd imagine.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,070 ✭✭✭Ollieboy


    Jay, I know how you feel and I've been in the same boat too, but your better to stick up a thread about how to deal with people on boards or the poker community in general not repaying debts, I dont think you should mention names as that can go legal etc and you decide to lend the money in good faith, so going puplic like this is not right, but I really know how you feel and it wasn't the above I lent to.

    Just to clear a matter up on my behalf, I shall never lend to anyone again as its just impossible to get it back, so dont ask me as I would hate to embarrass anyone in the future.

    Jay, do yourself a fav and remove the name. I think the above mention person will get the message now.

    Thank you. I appreciate that. And yes this is a last resort


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 909 ✭✭✭AKQJ10


    Even if he has contacted him, i know Jay wouldnt have really stressed that he wanted the money badly. If he mentioned it it wud prob have been like "have u got that monkey by anychance" or watever it was. It would not have been if you don't have the money im gonna post about on the internet

    To be honest, i'm not sure why this is viewed as such bad form.

    As has been said above, it does sound like a last resort post, and i'm pretty sure this is not the first time a boardsie has mentioned being owed money by another well known player.

    I'm currently owed a couple of grand by a few people (not gambling related), and if i felt that posting on a message board would pressure them to pay me back quicker, i'd do it. Unfortunately giving them a kicking is -EV legally.

    I don't know you, but I would never have any respect for you if I did after this post. How would you like it if someone put something like this up about you?
    It could be done on some other forum without your knowledge or something make up something worse like that you have done something else that is perceived as not popular among your peers.

    hi Ollie I was meaning to ask you, can you sub me $25,000 to play that new HU tournament on FT I'll pay you back at some stage, honest i will


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,696 ✭✭✭Hectorjelly


    How is it bad form? Why is this not the place for it? It adds absolutely nothing to the debate to post one liner statements like that.

    If Jay feels that he has tried to contact XYZ about it several times and didnt get an adequate response then its perfectly fine to let it be publicly know. It serves two purporses, to embaress the loanee, and to warn others.

    I know absolutely nothing about this situation, for all I know Jay made the whole thing up. I just think you need to find out the whole story before jumping on him.

    Point? If he goes legal at a later stage or XYZ now goes legal over this post etc, as there was no written contract. If you think its far fetch, look at Pat Kenny and he end up paying the legal bill for both sides and still paying for a site he never own in the first place.

    I'm just making a point to Jay to be careful.

    dont know what your problem with it is!

    I would venture that the person concerned obviously has full knowledge of the situation Jay has been left in, and yet has done nothing about it.

    Does that not disqualify them from being treated with respect as they have shown none themselves.?

    I wasnt jumping on anyone, I just said it was bad form.

    Im well aware that there must be more to this than meets the eye and all that but its not right. I personally don't agree with it and I would never do it to anyone and would hope people would have the decency not to do it to me.

    XYZ has his own problems, as does everyone, but posting these problems, on a public message board where the people he knows/see's regularly all converse is, in my opinion (and Im not jumping on anyone), wrong.

    Embarassing someone like this is not the optimal way to solve the problem.

    I'd like to leave this thread open, because i enjoy a good drama thread as much as the next person. But you have gone about this the totally wrong way.

    A thread like this could lead to legal action from anyone who felt they were being libelled/slandered (i forget which is which :pac:)

    Jay, you can pm any of the mods with the back story, or an admin, or if the person this thread is about wants to start a thread then fine. But this and any similar threads like it will be locked and ppl banned.

    Also, edited personal names out.

    Its "Libel" when its written (think of Library as a meme).

    This is not the final , last straw, saloon. This is not where you come as a last resort. We have small claims courts for that. I feel sorry for anyone in your position Jay, but we are not here to provide a platform for mob justice and "warning" others is all well and good but I'd prefer, since we have no personal/internal knowledge of your claims, not to be dragged into it.

    All of these reasons above are why God made www.blogger.com

    Go nuts!

    DeV.
