  Since it appears WGT refuses to fix the disconnect problems that most of us have experienced the past few weeks no matter what browzer we use,,,,WGt should disable the 3 disconnect rule so we all can finish our games,,3 strikes and your out is BS when it's not our fault...fix the damn thing WHT.....

  It will lead to the players playing for credits getting annoying when they're losing $$.  They will just  quit, restart, quit - restart, quit, restart, quit - restart, quit, restart, quit - restart, quit, restart, quit - restart, quit, restart, quit - restart, quit, restart, quit - restart, quit, restart, quit - restart, quit, restart, quit - restart, quit, restart, quit - restart, quit, restart, quit - restart, quit, restart, quit - restart, quit, restart, quit - restart, quit, restart, quit - restart, quit, restart, quit - restart, quit, restart, quit - restart, quit, restart, quit - restart, quit, restart, quit - restart, quit, restart, quit - restart, quit, restart, quit - restart, quit, restart, quit - restart, quit, restart, quit - restart, quit, restart, quit - restart, quit, restart, quit - restart, quit, restart, quit - restart, quit, restart, quit - restart, quit, restart, quit - restart, quit, restart, quit - restart, quit, restart, quit - restart, quit, restart, quit - restart, quit, restart, quit - restart, quit, restart, quit - restart, quit, restart, quit - restart, until the player who is winning might get annoyed and leave the game.  Some players have no morals here

  I am so happy (don't know if that's the riight word to use, lol) to see the 3 disco rule being lambasted by Dave. I have just gotten booted off for the umpteenth time after multiple attempts at games. When WGT won't allow players to load properly or just knocks them off continually, what is one supposed to do??????????!!!!!!!!!!!! This is still a fun game, but it could be made more fun  by figuring out how to keep players in the game after bogus disconnections by the WGT server. Here's a hint: people who quit on the own usually don't try reconnecting.

  I second that idea.. maybe change the 3 disconnection rule to say 4 or even 5 disconnections?

  No offense, and I doubt that anyone from wgt is reading this but it is not appropriate nor fair to disqualify players due to wgt bugs that cause crashes and hence disconnects.

  Seriously? Raise the bleeding disconnection limit to allow for the fact that your software has so many bugs that cause game client crashes, or at least fix some of the causes of the crashes..

  I know, I know.. clear cache, clear flash cache, blah blah blah.. try reporting the error by right clicking blah blah blah.. doesn't work with the white screen..

  STILL HAPPENING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Over the past 2 months, I have gotten my green dot back exactly 2 days before WGT forces me back into yellow status again. FIX THE SITE....please. No more "updates" unless it's for benefit of playing the game (no more gallery sounnds or voices or other nonsense gizmos which don't add directly to the playability of this game). I bet if every smart mind at WGT gets together and figures out how to do it, players will not have as much to complain aabout and we can go back to atually enjoying this game. I know WGT Media runns a baseball program too, but golf shoulld not be under the 3-strike format. Get with the right program!!

  This game used to be very enjoyable, but the last couple of months I have had on the average of 3 to 5 games a day lost while playing match play. Don,t tell me I need to clean out my cache cause I only have this trouble on WGT and only on the match play format.  I play other on line game sites and don,t have this problem.  It started just after  the EA sports and Madden football commercials started appearing please fix this problem. I know WGT monitors these post,s HAPY HERBY
