  I was setting up a stroke game and  lady accepted. First hole normal chat . I posted GL PW and she replied something about the same. I posted well OK let's play some golf.

  She came back and said that my reply was rude an disconnected.

  Tell me, was that rude?

  She probably just meant it to be funny, responding in kind..

  Things can get misconstrued without inflection.

  So true, such are words typed on a screen. Examples

  OK LETS PLAY SOME GOLF (Impatient)

  Ok (sleazebag approach), lets play .........................some.............................................golf as well

  Lets play some golf (politely as intended)

  Or just sit there say nothing, boring as multi player games should be fun, and recommend at the end that they play with themselves (not in a rude way unless you took approach #2 lol) as you have had better and more interesting company being audited by the taxman (intended to insult the player)

  PS If you are the taxman who audited me last year, sorry you were riveting company  NOT - a lump of driftwood has more personality and oomph as you did (now I hope he never reads this LMAO)

  It takes alot for me to quit a game, once I did because some guy kept making sexual remarks about my clubs, now that was creepy :-) , I had some guy tell me once that I talk too much and to shut up, so I just talked even more...now, that one was fun :-))
