Re: Has WGT been converted to a monastery?

  I have been using the same profile photo here on WGT for YEARS.  Yet yesterday when I logged on to WGT to play I found that WGT - in their "infinite wisdom" took it upon themselves to REMOVE MY PROFILE PHOTO.

  Maybe WGT isn't a monastery but clearly it's being run now by a bunch of prudish hypocrites.  This game is SUPPOSED to be FUN - but apparently not according to the prudes here who NOW run WGT.

  Keep on driving your customers away from your product WGT.  That's a real recipe for success - NOT.

  Double standards if you ask me Kelly, as one mod posted an image with the 'F' word in it the other day.  : (

  Additionally, when I tried to upload a new image that was as innocent as could be, I found that I was not able to do that  Which is why I now have the utterly blank "photo" spot as anyone can see here on my messages.

  Then its not WGT its a bug . If they didnt contact you about the picture after all this time then there was no problem . If you cant upload another picture then thats a bug not WGT blocking your profile page . It happens sometimes .

  Not sure it's a bug, I seem to recall a few years back that after a players pic was removed, WGT blocked them from uploading anything, the post carried some steam and several other players jumped in as well with the same issue/problem/whatever.

  Also, WGT doesn't just randomly look at pics unless they (WGT) have been notified by another player, then they decide.

  I have no doubt that you are correct about that last part.  I recently joined a CC which shall remain nameless and after letting me join the owner of that particular club immediately told me my profile photo was unacceptable.  He referred to it as a "porno" picture (his word not mine) when there was nothing pornographic about it at all.   So I imagine it was that puritanical crackpot who must have reported it to WGT.

  P.S. I left that CC the same day I joined it because of that CC owner's B.S.
