The OP mentioned that [said] quitter started another round right after quitting the round with him. And like X said, 99% of disconnects are from a player hitting a poor shot, anyone is only fooling their-self if they believe otherwise. That's right, the disconnect rate at no fault to a player is 1%.
The only simple solution to the quitting issue is to do away with multi-player altogether. I mean, if it's OK for one player to leave another player(s) hanging in multi-player, and nothing is done to the quitter, then no one deserves to play multi-player at all. It's the only fair thing to do for both parties involved. I say put multi-player on the back-burner until a fair, and viable solution is put in place. Heh, you never know, maybe these quitting threads will cease too.
This whole quitting issue really puts a black eye on WGT and a stain on this game. It's a spectacle that cheapens the game. The longer it goes on, the more people on the outside looking-in will see that WGT has no clue on how to solve the quitting issue that's plaguing their game.
