    I wouldn't know, I stick to mostly singleplayer games or couch co-op ones, online gaming is plagued with teens who think cursing is the epitome of being cool, I wouldn't bother going there all that often.

    I'm playing Words with Friends with someone and that someone keeps getting really big obscure words. O_o I can't understand why a grown adult would cheat, but I'm pretty sure they are.

    It might be Veena. She is the only person I know that speaks like 50 languages and still makes me look up English words in the dictionary.

    LMAO It's not Veena, but she probably does play a mean game of WWF.

    Haha. I'm getting close to throwing the board at them, even if it is a digital game.

    I would either quit or cheat back.

    lol You're bad. The thought crossed my mind too, but then, what's the point? There's no good feeling with a false win. I will probably just wind up quitting. Bah.

    In Scrabble, I have played with people who use the dictionary to find their words. The first time they did that I was like what do you think you are doing....and they had no idea you were not allowed to use it and played that way for years. I pulled the rules out and showed them. But told them it was fine if that's how they wanted to play. 
    Is it possible the player doesn't know?
