Internet Poker has been around long enough to begin a list of the most annoying words that players use as part of their User Names. To start it out I nominate the following:
1. hottie
2. johnny (or some version/spelling)
3. playa
What do any of you PO playa's think? LOL!!
The word DONK. Players throw the word around everytime another player makes a bad call and hits. That does not mean the player is a donk, it just means they got lucky. That would be the most annoying word in internet poker (hell in poker in general). I play live about 30-40 hours a week. I cant count how many times i hear that word and most player dont even know what the hell it means.
Any screen name with 69. The OMG from OMGClayAiken is getting popular, and I'm not sure I like it. Any Pro name or first name with numbers at the end, especially year of birth. Anything uncreative like 3493923 as a name is annoying. Going back to topic and choosing words, what about JKoff or any variation of that? I'm kind of guilty of that, as my Player's Only name used to be JKoffMasterBettor. Oh! Using Pro in the name. That's annoying too.
Slight digression, although I wholeheartedly agree with the SN's featuring the 69 in them, so tilting.... but, was going for pictures in my reply:
The most tilting pictures that would irritate me or get on my nerves to where I'd just block them from view on STARS were any form of baby pic...
Most of the times, their kids are ugly as is, but, my god.... don't expose that kind of cruel and unusual punishment to the rest of the world. Leave it for the family album.
I have to agree you in this one. I don't understand the persons who put their sons pictures as their photos, they don't imagine how many curse the players throw on them when they lose a hand.Quote:

any name on the merge network!!
Me myself I hate it when people put numbers in there names !!!
OMG, jersey, that's a great one. I totally hate those. That's what picture frames on your desk is for. Imagine if some psychotic retarded computer hacker tracked you because you sucked out on them, and they take out your kids instead... all because you put your kids pic as your poker avatar.Quote:

From now on I will be named:

LOL, classic. I wonder what room will allow that many characters. Merge is probably the best at that, as I've seen names that don't even fit in the spacing.Quote:

i dont care what ppl use but some of them are friggin hilarious. But I agree with Ary about the donk word. I love when someone gets eliminated and calls the person who did it a donk when they played the hand right lmao
LOL my screen name is UltimatedonkSavior the ones I don't like are the offensive ones, I remember a regular who played the $2.20 6-max tourney's who had a screen name STOPDARAPE. This player sure would stir the room when he sat a table.
this is an orig made especially for this thread ...

Numbers in names sometimes is unavoidable. Especially if the names popular and taken in a lot of variations. There was a study done way back when, and new one should be done. But, it basically said names w/ shark, pro, and such were usually weaker players, and names that went out of there way to be weak ie fish, bigfish, ATM, FreeMoney, etc. were usually better than average. I'd be more interested into why ppl pick there SN's.
this one wasnt really offensive,, was just funny and weird to me i saw tnite,,, guy was called"ANTI_EGGROLL" hahaha,, that was a weirdo ne,, ia sk ed why, he said duh, casue i hate eggrolls,,:) what a goof lol,,, and i also saw a reallly long name, "havenolifepokergirl".... that was a funny too and loonnng lol:)
Mostly names with lots of numbers are annoying.
idiot moron donk and my fav AZZ HOLE
The most irritating names to me are any that include 420 in it or anything else that advertises weed in the name. I dont care if u smoke(hell i smoke at times too) but why advertise it? being high isnt going to make me think your too stoned to play
I think imho the most offensive online name and picture is Leroy Watermelon, combined with racist rants he has used he should be banned on Carbon.
Isn't he a sneak also, I saw his name in a few tourney's yesterday.Quote:

LOL I picked mine for Carbon because it is original and unique. I had a player in a bumble bee room ask me if was some sort of cult or religious thing, I just laughed and said no I picked it because it was catchy, he laughed and said it sure is. :)Quote:

Obviously the most annoying words are " YOU LOST".....:(
I hate when ppl say "ty" whenever they win a pot.
