I understand some of the reasoning, but I have an occupation where I can't always wear it (inside electronic equipment or computers). I also couldn't wear it when I played. Finally I guess I don't have the type of fingers that a ring will absolutely stay on, at least I don't want to get one that snug.

Tom, I don't take mine off for a game because I have lost 1 already. So it stays put.

It does go in my pocket when I wash up or shower after the game. Don't use lotion.

Never been told to take it off.

There was a time when I regularly had my hands in the business end of large servers & worked on their components. Watch, badge & ring went into 1 pocket, 1 hand went into the other. Never got zapped but a doctor did tell me I have some hearing loss due to fan noise.
