People who send abusive messages after getting beat

Postby fij and chibz » Thu, 12 May 2011 23:19

won an itst match before were the opponent ended up retiring shortly after the first set, ever since i've been receiving abusive messages from him. lol.
its a shame people can't just accept a loss, they treat itst and top spin 4 way too serious.
Yes it's a game and I play for fun, but i also play to win, so if i can win a set 6-0 im going to do it, im not going to let you win a few games just for the hell of it - why spend 40minutes playing a match that could take 20?
some people need to stop moaning about losing because obviously everyone is going to end up playing someone who is better than them.
Also is a 100mph serve really unrealistic 'in the tennis world' ? apparently im a cheater because my player serves at that speed.
Ive played many matches against people who hit 115-120mph and dont find it hard returning them...

100mph is really slow for a first serve, but as a testament to the variety allowable in tennis, you need to look no further than Devvarman, who regularly hits in first serves in the 90s and 100s - and seems to give guys trouble with it.
I'm a fairly big server - usually maxing out in the high 120s / low 130s, but I occasionally throw in a really slow first serve just to confuse the opponent. Works more often than not.

Actually I think most pro player do the opposite in real life and serve a lower average, but pull out the heat only every once in a while.

Have you ever seen Niemenen play? When he gets tight his first serves are in the 70s and second serves have been clocked in the 50s :shock:

Nieminen is not exactly the greatest server in the top 100 :P
I'm a serve & volleyer, so I have to put a lot on my serves, or I get passed, or get a ball hit to where I can't make a good volley.
Karlovic doesn't hold back too much!
