Clears things up. Nice.
Rig(ged)tard. Donk(ey). Bingo (a form of Poker where absolutely no strategy or logic is applied).
A Rigtard is often a Donk taking the next step.
1. Donk plays Poker (actually bingo) 2. Donk loses a lot of money 3. Donk gets pissed off and blames a Poker site 4. Donk posts "rigged" threads, without any empirical data 5. Donk has now evolved to Rigtard and starts flooding the forums
Donk - no problem Rigtard - problem
Empirical Data: 100.000++ hands NOT: I lost with AA 8 times in a row! The site is rigged! Anyone can lose AA 8 times in a row, online or live.

In the end 90% of the players are rigtards when they loose and donks at same time.
Iam sure that after many bad beats (over and over again) most of the players think at least one tie that the software is rigged. Its a normal thinking.
I agree with you kinogomes that everybody thinks that Pokersites are rigged when we had several Bad beats but we don´t spam any Internet Forums with it and in the end we now that it was just unlucky and we take a break for one day from poker and after that we restart playing and don´t have bad beats and don´t think the sites are rigged

I must say that is defined in a way to where one can have respect for what a donk / riggedtard is. I never think much about either although I've been called a donk on occasion as I can assume we all have. There always seems to be somedone at the table who thinks they're hand should have won because they have the best hand pre-flop.

Normal we suspicious cause program or machine run the game. Since program is possible to control unfair ,isn't it ? Why someone feel uncomfortable when anyone told poker site is rigtards ? something lost from you ? or you just got several bad beat and on tilt when read rigtards post

Nice Darwinistic explanation of the evolution of donk to rigtard...
I suppose a creationist would argue that donks were created simultaneously with rigtards, as part of the same Grand Design.
How large should the sample size of donks and rigtards be, in order to prove this theory in a statistically significant way? Some of them claim to be winning players...
