    I think there is a problem with the newest version of flash and firefox. It is nothing WGT can do to sort the problem

    -except for abandoning FLASH (I think this will be a good call eventually)

     

    Just use chrome for now, or roll back your flash version.

    "Lots and lots" is not everyone - and there's no need to get personal. Bad form when you want help and get constructive feedback.

    RODY123:

    heres your ranting reply Ugfan, your talking through your backside, there are lots and lots of players with the problem just read the forums

    By all means, DO NOT submit a bug report, even though you've now heard that from nearly every reply. Just go to the forums and act like an ass and demand that wgt fix the problem.

    If WGT can't get their team of psychics, tarot card readers, and clairvoyants to fix this problem toot-sweet, then they should rethink their business model, because no computer user should ever have to deal with the nightmare of mild inconvenience.

    I'm with you brother! Solidarity!

    P.S. This probably isn't important, but when your opponent quits a game by closing the game client window instead of using the menu option, it will appear on your screen as "We're sorry but there has been an error...", but that couldn't possibly be it... No, no chance that's the problem...

    Have you given any thought to starting a "Quiters" thread?

    If you search the forums, you will find 103 pages of complaints about this problem.  That`s 1,030 complaints total and counting. The it`s our computer, or browser, or internet provider excuse, has really gotten old. It`s the same excuse given for the swing meter problems and everything else as well. WGT, spends more time trying to dodge fixing the problems than doing anything else. It`s very simple, FIX THE PROBLEMS, with game performance. Just that simple.

    Lonnie, you just don't know how absurd your post sounds.

    Whether you want to believe it or not, the problems you experience with this game is on your computer, not within the game. WGT has no control over your computer whatsoever.

    Not everyone is experiencing poor game-play at the same time. You need to take a look at your own computer, and find a fix for the problems your experiencing with this game. It can be done. Pointing the finger at WGT and neglecting to look at your own computer for potential problems is one sided.

    WGT has offered ways for players to optimize their computers for a better gaming experience. The rest is up to you.

    C`mon, this is nothing new. With all the complaints about game performance, all the other people cant be wrong.  I stand by what I said. Whether you like it or not is not important. As for my computer, it`s only 1yr. old, HP Pavilion g 7 series and I dont have any problems with it , until I play this game, and this game only. And before you try to check some one, make sure you dont sound absurd.

    1,030 people logging complaints is still NOT EVERYONE. 1,030 people isn't likely to be much more than 5% (if that) of the active WGT players.

    Likely what else you've missed is that a significant number of these complaints came shortly after an update to programs used to access the WGT software/code (Adobe, Firefox, likely Chrome sometime down the line).

    If a third-party program that WGT uses as a platform releases an update with changes in the way the third party software works, there's a fair chance it will affect the way your browser, your computer AND WGT will work.

    Combine that with the overwhelming amount of computer configurations, background software on systems, add-ons and plugins that a user might have in their browser, quite frankly to tell WGT to fix everything is asking an awful lot.

    I've determined, for example, that any meter issues I have ever had are related to:

    • Internet connection speed/line quality (including ping, latency and jitter)
    • Background programs choosing a random moment to grab some CPU and RAM resources
    • My laptop fan kicking on when the CPU gets too hot 

    There may be times that none of these are actual culprits - there may be heavy server loads with WGT, down connections between WGT and my internet provider, forcing a data to be re-routed through different routes.

    It's not that simple - Unless you happen to be one of the best computer programmers in the world and can identify that quickly which line of code may be in conflict with the new third party software release or this or that particular anti-virus/spyware/browser add-on.

    I don't know cars - I don't tell my mechanic "My car's not working. Just fix it. It's that simple."  Report the error, which likely includes enough information for WGT to identify the specific issue at the time it happened and better diagnosis the problem and potential solutions.

    By all means, keep lodging complaints on the forum that doesn't give any specific information that might actually help get your problem solved.  But keep in mind, insanity is defined as doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result.

    Lonnie, your living in denial. Try accepting the fact that your laptop is not properly optimized. I don't care if you had a $10,000 computer, if you don't set it up right, your going to have a poor meter.

    Besides, how could you blame WGT for your poor gaming performance, when you should consider if it's all them blunts you smoke causing your poor game-play.
