try playing higher stakes online, the players there are much better and will rarely if ever chase to the river with nothing or call 8xBB raises with QT. gl!!!

I think I'm just going to delete my pokerstars account. I'm never going to be a good online poker player because I just can't lower myself to play bad poker.

It's weird, because even when I lose in live games I have fun, but when I lose online it just really pisses me off...

If you cant beat online there is something wrong with your play. The fact that you said you need to lower yourself to play bad poker shows that you have a fundamental misunderstanding of what it takes to beat poor players.

One would think that people would play for a money a little better.

lol wah wah wah grow a pair leave the kid limits and step up to 1/2 nl or higher up untill a week ago i felt the same way but now that i took my original 700 dollar investment and ran it up 2 over 4 grand in the past couple weeks ill never go back 2 the donkey games again unless its to play like a maniac and take all u so called great players money. so in conclusion if u can beat a bad player u are a bad player if u wernt ud play the real limits and not the river rat games,casinos are better but online u cant play micro limit and expect to play great players.

If you are playing 1/2nl and up, expect variance to own you very soon buddy.

Online is MUCH tougher. Not to mention bad luck multiplies by the amount of tables you are playing.
