Honestly, I haven't noticed this, I don't talk muchИногда я общаюсь в чате. Но если я напишу, то моя очередь. А потом чат исчезает, это очень раздражает. Ещё больше людей страдают от этого?
There are also many players in online poker, who dont speak english. So this is a further reason, why there is not much chat anymore. Some sites have removed the chat function completely. So as you say its best to not expect online poker to be a social environment, unless you play in some kind of private or semi-private game.Not a lot of people chat on GG. Most are there to take your money, not make friends. You can throw stuff at people or box gloves. I would say make most friends outside of poker, especially online sites. Don't have the expectation that they will talk to you, just not to be disappointed. They just want your 5 dollars or whoever much you play, even at low stakes.
