Some pogo news i heard in game rooms *RUMORS till someone can confirm*

[bubblegum]

can't stand those league players either who CANT CHAT UNLESS THEY TYPE IN CAPS annoys the hell out of me

[Libra]

yes I'm a pogo junkie however I never play in those ladders/leagues becuase I don't have the time to sit down and play a whole game with a league.  And when they take over a room, I hate it but at the same time like it becuase I can hide my auto use better

Lol those leagues are run like some sort of fascist regime.  Not naming anyone or any league in particular, just an observation.  "No talking to non-league players during games or you'll be disqualified" or "Mute all non-league players or you'll be disqualified" or "BLAH BLAH BLAH I ONLY KNOW HOW TO TYPE IN CAPS" or commandeering the whole room...  I've actually had tournament hosts (there's an oxymoron for you) try to bully people into leaving the room.  If I'm correct, can't you private chat with multiple people at the same time?  I wouldn't mind seeing that as a stipulation for running tournies, that way the rest of the room can continue in peace.

That is SO FREAKIN' TRUE!  During Tournies, especially if it's one of those Nazi tourney hosts from hell?  I'll chat as much as I possibly can.  Bring up topics that you KNOW will get others going, and use a LOT OF CAPS!   :)) :)) :))  Just to pizz'em off.  But, usually, I just leave.

yea  i was in a few leagues where the  owner  tried to push people out of the room  saying it was the leagues room...   of the  20 leagues i been in   all of them have been good besides that one.. none had a problem with other players

just to clarify, only the league host types in caps, so that the players can easily distinguish the pairings/rules in a chat lobby. weather you are a pogo free member, paid member, host, or league member, the same standard applies: the room is open to anyone an everyone.
   Not everyone will get along on pogo, but i would assume "a host typing in caps" so league members get the info for the tour, should be the least of everyones worries. I am a host myself, and no i am not the devil, i dont type the rules in caps to purpously annoy you, an i dont kick anyone out of a room. And the minute rules are over, i Cap down, an use undercaps, so as not to abuse the caps.  I feel leagues get a bad rep. , and if pogo does come out with their own leagues in bowling, id like to see posts like above, directed to pogo employees when they host in caps. lastly, dont knock it till ya try it lol=leagues can be a heck of alot of fun;) <3

Pink ...

I think, from the sounds of it, you are one of the better hosts. Ive also hosted, but we wont go there =)  I have seen ALOT of hosts abuse what "power" they think they have, and unfortunately they give most hosts a bad name.

Ok, those leagues that try to push people out of the rooms are complete (censored by SaintHippo but there are a lot of words here). The league I'm in don't mind if you talk to other non-members, we don't kick people out the room (the room is more than big enough for both the league and non-leaguers), we don't control the chat (we only speak when we need to talk with other leaguers) and we don't have private chat available in the game I play in so we can't use that option. The people who come into our room has NEVER had a problem with our league since we don't cause problems. We're as friendly as they come and if there was an award for the least complainted about league, we would win it every time. Just know that while you might have had a bad experience with a few leagues, not all are like that and that's all I have to say about that!

Pink,

For the most part, the Tourney's and their hosts aren't bad.  I've gotten the a whole league going before, tourney host included, laughing so hard that the game could barely be played, so I can't say all experiences were bad.  And you're right, it is the few Nazi hosts out there giving you guys a bad name.  

Now, as for leagues?  I have tried them, and they're just not for me.  And they are annoying when you're trying to chat with your friends, but like I said, I either just go to another room or take all my friends to private.

Allow me to apologize, I didn't mean to bash all leagues, just those that are run by the Gestapo.  I've been in many rooms with good leagues.  It's the ones run by the tournie Nazis that set me off.  Phlinx is notorious for those.

and where does he end up? the burger stand?
