Forum Posting Guidelines

Greetings golfer, and welcome to the WGT Forums!

This discussion board is here to give our players a place to discuss their ideas, give advice on gameplay, give the company feedback, and talk about anything else WGT related. We pride ourselves on maintaining a community full of players who are respectful and courteous while interacting with each other. We would ask the same from anyone participating in these forums.

The list below outlines general practices or behaviors that are unwelcome and prohibited on the forums. It's important to keep in mind that the guidelines listed here are not a complete list and may not address all types of offenses. Please see our Terms & Conditions for more information. WGT may, but is not required to, delete postings that do not comply with these guidelines or WGT's Terms & Conditions. Your access to these forums is a "privilege", and not a "right". We reserve the right to update and modify these rules as needed.

Thank you for taking the time to read the WGT forum posting guidelines.
