  How about it we start a list of players that abandon game halfway if they see they are losing. I think there are a lot of us that are getting fed up with players like that. Was dropped 4 times today.

  How do you differ between a quitter and someone being disconnected ?

  Would be difficult. Had a guy leave yesterday. Partner and i were  3 up after 3 holes. We go to the lobby and wait out two and half min. I go back out and find another game and what do you know ,the guy who disconnected is in that game now.  Immediately, he says in chat that he is sorry and his network disconnected him. I believe he quit, how did he get into another game before me but unable to reconnect to our game, but how do i know for sure. I wasn't there, maybe his internet did go down and there was a glitch.

  I agree the quitters suck, but how do you prove they quit

  It's not unheard of - I've been disconnected from several games in the past where I'm unable to get back in, but I can get into a different game with no problems at all.

  It's not really a question of being able to tell who quits and who genuinely gets disconnected. WGT has a policy against calling out people specifically, so if such a list were ever created, it would come down shortly thereafter.

  I see a lot of posts about quitters and I aggree that it is extremely frustrating, but how about cheaters who steal people's credits (money) who pretend to be amatures/pro's when they are actually tour legends.  

  There is no way a Pro player with a 80 average can win all the skins in a high stakes game by making 20 - 40 foot putts when he's not putting the ball within 1 foot from 180+ yards (and then telling everybody he's only been playing for 9 days)....

  You cannot call out players anywhere on WGT.
