  Just wondering how the site deals with these kind of players.

  I had a match with, what can only be described as a serious bad looser, during which, he told me he was going to empty my account of all my credits and have my account closed within 48 hours ?

  This was mildly written by me, compared to the language used by him.

  I have since looked at his profile to find that he has sent numerous abusive messages to alot of players on site.

  Is there nothing that can be done to prevent these children ruining the site ???

  What is the protocal for reporting these people ?

  Thanx

  As Icon says, But try and take screen shots to substantiate your complaint.

  Sadly very occasionally we strike players like this, but they are very minority so my advice is to rise above them and do not stoop to their levels. Most players are here to enjoy the game and I for one, will always enjoy a game with anyone of any level regardless how I play (and believe me, I can have some shockers). 

  If you play to enjoy and act accordingly, you are the winner regardless of the result.

  But that raises a question for Icon, does this mean I can no longer use my toe wedge?
