I think It'd be a great idea for WGT to put a box on the start up page entitled "How to Quit/Forfeit During a Game". So many times when a player in a group wants to/has to leave, they just close their game and make every1 else wait 2:30 minutes to restart. If they knew to wait till their turn, then go to menu and then hit forfeit, it would save the other players that time. Just a thought

Why do these people forfeit? It spoils your game, loses you XP and results in lost pass points.

I suggest you make a 3 strikes then out if you forfeit

Best thing is to play with friends and not random people, then it usually won't be a problem. You are suggesting that WGT remove paying customers for forfeiting, and they aren't going to do that.

I agree you can't boot them. I have to forfeit if I am on-call for work and get called in. I'm just saying that people should be taught how to forfeit if the need arises and the best way may be a notice on the main page.

"Best thing is to play with friends and not random people" you can lead a horse to water but... there are times emergency's happen whether it be work or family..and no they wont do the 3 strikes out and done..WGT would plummet down a steep hill never to return.. in the end its just a game to have fun with..and try to teach those you play with on regular basis.

Yeah I've lost much interest in playing 9 holes with random players, because I get at least 70% forfeit. I play mostly 3 holes now, even that I get forfeiters, but not as many.

I whole heartedly agree, I get so furious, when some dirt bag decides to ram his vehicle into someone else's, and I have to leave to extricate someone from that damaged vehicle,,,,,,or even better the jerk wad who has the audacity to have a heart attack, and interrupt my game cuz now I have about 2 hours of cpr , intubation, and starting of ivs, to get them to the hospital. Don't these uncourtious people know that they cost somebody else 2 min and 30 sec. of their life, and a FREE pass. What's this world coming to?

So what if somebody forfeits? How 'bout just sucking it up and quitcher whining? It's not like you have anything better to do with your time. You are playing video games, after all!

just sayin'...
