Being chatted up online: Whats the politest rejection?

[yossssi]

I play poker online, and my picture pops up as the player (obviously). When I first started playing, people gave me compliments, I liked it. But now I'm getting tired of it. I feel like I can't play without being chatted up, and sometimes harassed. I don't like leaving the room because normally by then I've figured out the players play patterns.

So, when people start with them, they just say hi. And I don't want to be rude, so I say hi back. And then they ask when I live, and I just say the country. Then they ask my age. I don't feel comfortable answering that, and sometimes I'll say '21' or '20's' or 'Sorry, I don't give out info like that'. And then they start chatting me up, saying I'm pretty and so on. And then sometimes I have guys who seem to be in competition to 'wooo' me. Like yesterday the guy told the other guy to leave me alone cause I was his.

Uhh, I don't think so.

So, is it best I completely ignore it when they say 'Hi' so I'm not in that position?

Or, do I answer, and then say "I don't give out that infor"...
or what?

What is the politest rejection? What would you prefer if you were on the receiving end?

By rejection hotline, it's fun, and it gets the message through perfectly.

Yeah, I just wouldn't say hi back. Your there to play poker not to be chatted up and if it stops you being chatted up then just don't talk to them.
I get random people adding me on msn all the time and I don't know who they are or where they get my addy from so I've just started blocking and deleting them because they're only interested in one thing - once they find out I won't send them pics or go on webcam they bugger off and it's a complete waste of time and really quite frustrating.
