  Juasert:

  I've noted that baggers tend to say that they prefer playing other baggers. 

   

  Twice I've seen you mention this-in this thread...very contradictory to what sand baggers do.

   

  I suppose you feel MA'ers prefer to play other MA'ers as well?

   

  Could you explain the logic behind that please?  (just your observation, not mine, but should hold for both situations)

  LOL.... Mike

  I don't think my man knows what he is babbling.  

  Really,,, did you understand anything this dude posted??  Other than pointing out ways to scam and make it look like its all okay...lol.

  I say.... he would make a good salesman.

  :))

  People don't usually mind grammatical mistakes, but when you call someone a moron, make sure you're not being a moron yourself.

  I had previously thought that people here had missed the point as to me posting on this thread. But I now think that the nature of this topic has meant that the more intelligent people have simply bypassed it

   

    Are you playing the "Catch me if you can" game?

  i don't know what a MA'er is. But my point was that because players give other players a hard time when they think they're a cheat/bagger etc, these 'baggers' that are accused of these things often like to stick with other such players as they won't cop the abuse

  If you understood me stating how players scam then you understood everything that I was saying. You're reactions are spot on.

  I'm clearly not playing a catch me if you can game in regards to posting in threads. I was ousted as apparently being a cheat before I even knew about it.

  I'm new here, been playing almost straight the last 48 hours, very addicting indeed, I was just thinking of dropping a ton of dough on some equipment, but this thread has me concerned on 2 levels.

  This is not a cheap site, just checked out the pro shop, and holy freaking cow is this place ever expensive.

  My practice has been getting better and better, I'm playing a little better, I think I might get to be a bogie golfer with better equipment maybe, but should i be worried if I spend my hard earned dollars and 1 it gets stolen by cheaters or WGT just up and closes my account or both.

  There is no one else playing this IP address that I know of, not sure how that works, whethers it's an apartment or neighborhood address thing.

  Should I be worried and just keep playing free, or just move on altogether.

  Yeah... he says... he don't think stealing from the lower tiers is a good thing.

  But,,,, he surely entered that ready go.

  I wish he would stick his nose in a open ready go..... so i could cut it off.

  LMAO!

  After...  i carry it around in my back pocket.   :)

  look, i aint no grifter but it makes absolutely no sense for a bagger/scammer/whatever to become such simply to try to scam others who are the same - even if the excuse is there will be no one upset because it's just a cheater cheating a cheat. 

  maybe it's just that cheaters prefer the absence of morality when gaming - dunno.

  but cheaters cheating cheats is no way to make any swag - not sure who your'e trying to fool J

  anyway, just post real scores, play the system the way it was intended to be and quit attempting to fool folks - it's just not right and deep down even the rottenest of eggs knows that

  what really is going to suck, is the day(or days) when I realize some of this stuff is done by players with the game and persona here that I've admired and respected.

  Nobody can actually steal directly from you.  The theft being discussed most of the time is sandbaggers and multi-account holders entering Ready Go tourneys or playing match play games against other players for money.

  Since they have a clear advantage over the regular players in their tier they have a good chance of winning, therefore taking credits away from those who might actually have deserved them.

  It is certainly a form of theft but don't worry, nobody will pick your pocket here.

   

  SteveJDufner:

   WGT just up and closes my account

  If you mean WGT closes your account due to suspicious activity I don't see why they'd do this as long as you aren't doing anything dodgy.  Even then it seems to need something pretty damn obvious to make them take action.

  If you're referring to WGT just disappearing one day without any warning and without anyone being refunded the credits they have or the value of their gear, I think this is pretty unlikely.  I hope so anyway.
