I have no problem with aggressive nudging, sliding the game (if on a slick floor). This doesn't hurt games. I DO have a problem with people slamming their fists on the glass or lockdown bar, kicking the coinbox, kicking the legs, picking up the game and slamming it down.
I have been to a few tournaments in a city in our state and there are a handful of guys that continually abuse the machines. The do many of the things listed above and I always hope those guys don't come down to our tournaments.
