     This morning I got called out for using my computer in a coin game room....as I have always done...I don't own a phone and have always played WGT on a computer. He said I was cheating and that coin rooms were strictly for phone use. I have been playing for 15  years now and have never heard such nonsense . ? Am I in the wrong or is he just a grumpy old buzzard ???

  If you were wrong, you would not be able to access them with a computer.

  Number one tip.....Turn off the chat function!  Nothing but trouble there.

  You can't be wrong if you do what WGT offers...

  But the other player may not be up to date, or a Karen. Once upon a time, "mobile" games were only accessible by mobile devices...     Better times? Who knows(?)

  I disagree, I like to chat sometimes even if they throw out insults and negative comments. I have been told to get my Champ azz out of the colin games lol. One guy said how to you expect me to win with those clubs you have. I said I don't expect you to win LOL. I have been called numerous names in chat. One guy told me my avatar looked gay with my matching shoes. Not sure if that was supposed to be an insult or he was coming on to me lol. I do agree though, sometimes it best to just ignore the chat and concentrate on the game.

  Frequently I come up against someone whose name I am familiar with and want to say hi.  It irks me when people automatically turn off chat, just turn it off if the person is acting with rude behavior. Which obviously is what you want to do when someone is acting a jerk  

  On the other side of this, I tried to talk to a guy one time to find out what clubs he would like to improve his game and I got nothing back, so he got nothing. You never know who you might meet.
