I like to try to give off the impression that I'm tilting if possible, but it's better to think about how you could have played the hand better and about the other hands you're in then to try to think of something clever to say imo.
I of course didn't mean that you should put a lot of effort in thinking about what to write. Many players never write anything in the chat and that's completely fine. My point was that -if- you are going to write something, then write something nice and never ever berate a weak player or even a weak play by a better player.
Sorry, I didn't mean to imply that you meant you should put a lot of effort into thinking about what to write. I meant thinking of a way to sound tilty is too occupying for me. I totally agree that you should never berate what you think is an exploitable play.

Maybe just have default responses? I like "nice one, mate" people will look at my location and see US, but then think "wait he said mate. Is he just an anglophile or is he originally from Britain, or maybe Australia? Crap I just timed out on aces."
