  How about changing it to 4 and give it a 3 month trial period. Those of us who are playing alt and lose our CC passes due to disconnects are being penalized. If credit players are abusing the system then lets have a report system set up to identify abusers and let us play for enjoyment peeps have some uninterrupted fun.

  When the disconnects start acting up, even 4 won't suffice...I fully agree with the rest of your post though...that said, if a person is intent on cheating, there are apparently many ways to do it, so I'm not sure why disconnects are being kind of singled out as a major concern for abuse.

  Limit needs to be raised or removed altogether.

   

  At least until they stabalise the system.

  Maybe there should be opponent choice for implementing the disconnect rule.

  For example, "Your opponent has disconnected three times. Would you like to disqualify them?"

  That gives some leeway. In friendly alternate play games, I'm sure most people would forgive disconnects that aren't the opponent's fault.

  Seems this thread is falling on deaf ears,,,i have never quit a game in the close to three years i have been playing but thanks to WGT's incompetence when it comes to fixing this issue i now have the dreaded yellow flag and i'm sure hundreds perhaps thousands more undeserving players are in the same boat,,,fix the damn issue or do away with the 3 strike rule!!!!!!!!

  In the last few days I've played quite a few Alt Shot and Match games with friends and have been booted and was not able to get back in time, ok maybe it may be due to the browser I'm using and may not be the fault of WGT but at the end of the day I will always try to return to finish the game. My friends know I would not quit whether I'm winning or losing the match, but to be removed from the game just because I have been booted 3 times is wrong so please stop the 3 strikes rule and let us continue playing.

  I had no chance to end an alternate game in the last 2 days because my partner or me got disconnected 3 times from the game.

  WGT please fix this!!!!!!
