Moderating the chat lobby can be a lot of headaches and stress, but in the midst of that there is always something that will make me laugh.
Last night someone was in the chat lobby grumbling about the site, the slowness of the support staff and anything else they could think of. We all tried to be polite but got nowhere. So, after letting them rant and rave for as long as I could stand it, I finally booted him softly out of the lobby. This means he has to close the game then reopen it. Usually this makes players calm down. Not this time. He came right back into the lobby demanding to know how he got booted and why. I gave him my reasons (arguing with the Mods, disrupting the lobby). He then wanted to know if this is the way the site treats their players. "Yes, sir, it is" I replied. That really set him off. Finally I told him that if he had a complaint with any of the Mods, he should take it up with the Head Moderator.
He didn't calm down but insisted he had done nothing wrong. Most people booted say this. I ignored his banter after this point and he finally got tired of being ignored and went away.
The other thing that makes me laugh is when players come into the lobby to give expert advice on how to play the game. Everyone is entitled to play as they see fit. What makes sense to one person does not always make sense to another and arguments ensue. Usually these arguments get pretty silly and make me and the other Mods laugh a lot. Nothing funnier than watching two stubborn mules LOL

Starting Over
NoPayPoker support finally answered me. It seems as though they do take umbrage at the three accounts here in this household. So, I have to cancel two of them (gladly) and I can then have my account and will have to start over with a balance of zero dollars. The $25 I made already is gone with the wind :(
I really don't mind that much I just want to be able to play poker on that site! Of the four or five poker sites I have tried out, NoPay is, by far, the best of the bunch. The players there are mostly good players and there are not that many donks. The players there are generally friendly and that's nice too.
So, all I can do now is wait some more and let support do their job in their own, slow, fashion.

Bounced!
Went last night to play poker at NoPayPoker only to discover that my account has been taken away! I almost cried, I like playing there so much. That plus I have been waiting for them to pay me my $25. I went to the website and found the same information as well as I have no money and my payment request is gone :(
I sent a ticket to support asking what did I do wrong and am now waiting for their reply.
Spent a bit of time emailing one of the mods and they had no idea my account had been canceled or why. But in the course of conversation it seems that I may have been banned because of the accounts I set up for Shelly and Esme without, I guess, their prior permission. I had heard other players talk about having more than one account in their household and thought it was okay but I guess not. I guess it also has cost me my $25.
I believe what I will do is wait to see what support tells me then try to beg my way back into the site by having them remove the two extra accounts (which weren't used anyways) and letting them keep my money earned and just let me start all over.
That's how much I love playing on their site!
