Re: Reporting Players?

  I've been playing a long time and have encountered a few rude and abusive players, I've never risen to the bait and have a thick skin so it's not a problem for me and thankfully, it's relatively rare among the WGT community. However, I've just played an alt shot game up against 2 players who took things to a new low. Abuse of my mother and father and sexual threats to my female partner. I'm no prude and not easily offended or rattled but these 2 took things way beyond what's acceptable.

  What can I do to try to get action taken against them?

  You would need to send screenshots of the chat box to WGT for them to take any action.

  Although you could report the abuse to WGT and at least the players involved will be on their radar in future.

  If you have noted the players involved, all you can do is block them and you'll never have to bother with them again.

  Thank you. I've got their names, how do I report them to WGT?

  Names aren't enough, you need proof (screenshots).

  @Paul: Unfortunately, blocking doesn't cover the lot in game set-up...

  One way to answer such bad attitude would be to state "give me more of this - I'm doing screenshots for a report."

  Be prepared for immediate quits then, and be sure to block them against possible revenge!

  hi!

  Please be sure to report them and please include screenshots. I am sorry that there are some bad apples out there.

  You are about 8 years too late with your advice to that particular player  :)

  It’s still relevant advice today , to report bad behaviour to a club owner if that player is in a club .
