PGLS

i stay away from those voice things. if i play with friends i use skype i think its 10x better

Me to, and it's way better ...

got hacked some years back through skype, they made it into my banking.
i played hell getting everything straightened out so i no longer will mess with skype.
to be honest for the MP rounds i do play the text chat is just fine for me, helps me to keep my
self in the game and not thinking about what is being said.
now back to the -16 most of you folks have been playing PC golf for years at least i have and all games have always had that handful of folks
who shoot the ultra low scores always has been that way and i doubt it will change. my feeling towards this is these few are wired slightly different then the masses and see the game a bit differently and are able to make these scores, just a better understanding i believe.

Text chat works just fine, and it's been around since day one.

yep, wired slighty oddly
