What happened? Seems that APAT has become a bitching ground lately, and that Des and Tighty are seen as fair game. It"s all getting pretty depressing tbh.
APAT is run by a bunch of volunteers - get with the programme people, and start showing a little respect.
Carry on the way it is, and I can see the important people walking away, and APAT dissolves.

Now this is a fabulous post!

No, take it as read that while sensible and considered argument will always be welcomed, the bitching stops here. It has not been a factor on this forum over the past five years and if people want to berate or belittle others on here, then they are out. Enough is enough. This is my one and only warning on this subject. If people disagree, feel free to find another forum to post on.

BOOOM and the foot is down! Well said mate take back the forum for the friendlies )

I"m pretty amazed by some of the moan type posts on here and to be honest I do bite sometimes when I see something that I think is over the top or out of order. I apologise for that.
However I think some people need to read what they put before pressing the post button

Being back the applause!

very well said des and not before time, As it is a thankless job you"s do at best of times, also the person who has not made a mistake in this life has not been born yet to my knowledge, onwards & upwards

This! It made our tournaments so different from the norm, to hear the casino break out in applause whenever there was a KO. Helped the community spirit of the events.

good idea, just a bit embarassing if you go 1st hand or somthing.

I agree - some people, taking themselves and everything else too seriously, have taken some of the enjoyment out of it lately for the rest.

From two people who got a lot of comfort from it on many a Saturday afternoon.

Not at all - if nothing else, it meant that APAT was something different, and the local casino regs would at least show an interest.

the spirit of apat is good at the live tournaments , I have played in the last 10 (excluding team events) and have never seen any bitching only seen some fantastic banter from people like ger/scouse/grant/dawn/mint trav/etc etc too numerous to name the rest, but the only bitching i have seen has been on the forum and if any person was thinking of joining our association they would probably think twice about it after reading of the crap on it lately, roll on next weekend when we meet up at coventry

Well said, a lot of aggro over the weekly league over what is clearly a fab job well done.
APAT North America @ Caesars after 2 back outs (one rather late from what was said) - Simply Brill.
Sunday Stars league - Awesome.
2012 Schedule - Excellent (although I can"t play most events to schedule clashes).
Again - Fab work APAT - keep it up.

Applause was always great

That"s one record that can never be taken from you George.
Didn"t do you any harm though, APAT and UKIPT legend now, with the odd DTD deepstack and GPT (or whatever it was called) thrown in as well.
-
Was George first out (first to get appluded) in the first apat event? Quality record if he was.

He was indeed and it took around two hours if I remember correctly. NOBODY wanted that on their CV!
George did pick up an exclusive APAT branded top for his troubles though...
Jeez....September 2006.
