No one here better be doing this

Marty, I'm surprised this isn't obvious but...

1. Most people don't like people coaching or insulting them. Why risk scaring away a fish by doing either? Fish are often there just to gamble and have a good time. Telling them how bad they are doesn't help them do the latter.

2. When I first started playing online, I thought I was good. But I wasn't. I donated for a few sessions before I realized it wasn't due to bad luck. If players had been berating after bad plays during those first few sessions, I probably would have figured it out quicker.
