   Comments: One who is unfortunate enough to be disabled should at least have the opportunity to be equal to others in playing a game. even if it requires bending a few rules. At least in this world, they might be equal to those who are fortunate enough to be "whole".

   Comments: The way the cap's thing was treated was outrageous!!! I saw nothing wrong with helping someone with a sight problem out by using CAPS!When WhatGall made it taboo to discuss.that was the last straw! Thank's..Maggie

   Comments: I have bee a player for abut 8 mos. and have enjoyed it very much up until recently. I think the rule that this mod decided to enforce was not used for its real purpose. It is my understanding that this is ( ALL CAPS)is considered "shouting" and I can understand it being called down when that is the case. This was not the case!!!!! This player just wanted to enjoy our company and chat,unfortunately has a problem seeing the chat. the entire room agreed to chat in caps as long as as she played and not any other time. This is very unfair and I just want Popcap to know how very dissappointed I am that a popular mod lost his job over this very petty thing!!!!

   Comments: I am shock and total disappointed with popcaps behavior and over all tone on this matter. Why would any company with one ounce of compasion make a sight impaired person go into a adult sight The e-mail I was sent by this company was cold, uncaring and just plain condendsending. handicapped people don't want your pity Popcap.com they just want your respected! The rest of us just want you to do what is right.

   Comments: The action that was taken against Mickin was total unfair. This man have more heart and caring than any other mod. I know. He was doing what is right. Whatgall needs to get off of her high horse! When all of the players are gone then who is she going to mute or boot!

   Comments: I believe that there are exceptions to rules and this should be one of them. For those who are visually impaired using all caps to type helps them to feel a part of the chat in the room. It is unfair and selfish to demand that all caps not be used. It is kindness to others that lets us feel our best.

   Comments: I have been playing this game for nearly two years now and have seen alot. It seems to me if some moderators will at times allow players to push the limits with sexual undertones in the main chat, that we can surely allow caps to be used ! Seems to me that the problem was due to a moderator abusing their power and unwilling to offer a reasonable solution. As for suggesting that a player wishing to use caps can go to the adult rooms, obviously the person who made that recommendation had not been in one for very long ! There is some disgusting chat that goes on in there !

   Comments: I THINK THAT THE USE OF CAPS SHOULD NOT BE AN ISSUE IN ANY OF THESE GAME ROOMS. SOME PEOPLE ARE REALLY NIT PICKIE AS TO THEIR USE. I MYSELF FIND IT MUCH EASIER TO SEE THE LETTERS WHEN THEY ARE IN CAPS BUT REFRAIN FROM DOING SO AS TO NOT GET BOOTED. UNDER CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES CAPS SHOULD BE ALLOWED.AS IN THE INSTANCE OF THE VISUALLY IMPAIRED PLAYER POPCAP AND THE MOD WHO BOOTED THIS PERSON SHOULD BE ASHAMED.

    Comments: I feel what was done to mickin was very wrong i thought this site was for everyone even the handicapped. I also think whatgall should be released from her powers i feel she uses them wrong and if someone doesn't agree with her then she takes the powers away. if this site isn't for handicapp people also to enjoy then i will leave this site ...I feel mickin should be given his mod powers back for he stood up for his beliefs and the handicapped individuals as well i believe in mickin and his descision.....

    Comments: sevenrings here .. i support mickin 100% in allowing the use of caps so this woman with the visual problem could see.i was also there when WhatGall told the people in the room if she could afford to be on line then she should get a magnifier,i do think this was unfair.the idea of this chat is to be able to make friends.in stardust room i have personally seen WhatGall break many of the rules,example flooding the room with pink,making a pig and other sorts os stuff.so it seems it is ok for her to break the rules but not by a mod who is trying to help someone.

    Comments: Just found out about the way a person with a disability has been treated. I Hope that one day if it happens to you that you get treated with nastiness,I never thought I would come across something like this on pig poker. We are all the same we are all human beings so why treat this person or any other disabled person any differently. How would you feel to be treated like that and ridiculed in a manner as this lady was. Also, why should MICKIN who, is the only fair and polite mod on pig poker get the sack, I think the boss at popcap should look and see what is going on as one mod should not have all the say. Hope you read this and take notice popcap as it is discrimination against a disabled person.

    Comments: there are rooms on other game sites that are caps only. I have worked for Leader School for the Blind in Rochester MI, I helped to raise money to provide guides to the visually impaired. Many of the graduates of that school had tunnel vision and many other problems that did not allow them to see as I did. I understood and did all that I could to try to pay for Guide Dogs. Popcap is a popular site and I just don't understand why they can't have a room for caps only for the visually impaired. God knows, they deserve to have fun just as much or more than I do.

    Comments: There are some companies that don't remember how they get their reputations. With Popcap, it is through their representatives. the Moderators. In this case, one such Moderator, has taken it upon themselves to wage war against any who would use caps to assist a disabled player. Further, this moderator, declared to a room full of angry players, that there would be no further discussion of the subject in main chat and declared the subject closed. This is censorship of the worst kind. Later, the entire story was revealed on a site called Stardust Cafe, where Whatgall described the events that caused the removal of that Moderator Mickin for allowing the use of caps. Opposing viewpoints were provided as a message thread was created. Then as censorship does, the opposing viewpoints were removed by those in power in the room so that WhatGall would not look to bad. By the next day, less than 24 hours after WhatGall started the thread, it was deleted entirely. How Can Popcap support such a person who can only see one side of any argument or discussion. She must be removed before Popcap suffers further damage because of her ineffectual efforts. Her room, stardust, is possibly the worst one of all, and sometimes because of her own comments. Thanks for your time, if you spend any reading this. I can assure you that there are 100's of players who don't enjoy the game like they did before Whatgall imposed martial law on Flamingo room and the use of capital letters for the sight impaired.

    Comments: This injustice is certainly outright ridiculous.WHAT was wrong with using caps for the visually impaired.Also why was Mickin stripped of his role as moderator,,,,,,was it not within' his discretion to come to the assistance of the visually challenged. He was doing his job,,,by creating a safe environment for DANASMOM to play in.Again I emphasise the gross injustice done by the way this issue was handled. Perhaps whatgall needs to be go on a humanity trip ofcompassion,rather than an ego boosting power trip.
