    I was never really bothered by quitters....at least you could continue your game without interuption. (as long as the quitter quit correctly). now it has become a farce.

    Way to alienate people WGT...good one!

    well i think the system does not work i have seen my percentage go down in 2 days from 100 to 73 and i never quit win or lose .just because someone has quit i am again punished. so the only answer i can see is wgt just wants you to play on your own

    So, now that we have " proper forum form " covered :), we have two who think this may be a fix for a faulty system that may not be too difficult to implement, and, one who believes the Earth is flat, No offence meant but, what I was suggesting was to change the game parameters whereby to "X" out of the game screen , one would have to double click, any other means of exiting the game would be interpreted as an un-intentional disconnect and would not count against a players percentage. Now , say you are a quitter, and the game is not going how you like it, all you have to do is "X" out once, and no one's the wiser as to your reason for leaving (lol). If, this were implemented,  you "X" out, a screen pops up "are you sure... ?" you "X" out again, the system registers this as a deliberate disconnect and adjusts your percentage accordingly. The only other way I can see to exit the game to get around this, if it is implemented, would be re-booting your computer which at least would cost the quitter some time, instead of just his three victims left waiting an eternity in the lobby. Any further ideas?

    It just keeps getting worse.  Last night I completed 18 holes at Congressional, and the score is reflected on my recent activity.  Yet today I log in to play and it says that I forfeited that match, even though they posted my 18 hole score when saying I forfeited.

    I think what bothers me most of all is that I see no notifications that WGT is shutting down for maintenance to fix all of the problems their last "fix" created, or any release saying that they acknowledge there are problems and they are working on it.   Certainly they can't be naive enough to believe that there are no problems associated with their latest "upgrades" based on the number of complains posted here and the complaints of the players in the chatbox while playing.

    Make this twice it has happened to me today, after also completing 18 holes at Olympic.
