  mainly these are end user problems....and there's plenty of threads in forums on how to fix meter problems caused by either flash or pc issues.

  wgt aren't here to be anyone's NetNanny

  folks with probs just need to search in the forums.

  Maxthon3 browser sorts out such issues, helping a wide spectrum of wgt players from nae hair to grey hair.

  I've gone blue in the face recommending this curious beast (Maxthon3) and although it helps the vast majority of folks, there's always going to be the odd person running a PIII with Win98 who can't understand why they have problems playing this game.

  Hi

  We do not put any traps on purpose or specifically handicap your shots or do anything of this sort.

  Now , now we all know that`s not true. The vem / deviation does all that. You see if you dont want to own up to whats going on, we understand. But understand, that there are those off us who have been here for awhile. When players come to the forums, they are looking for answers . If they search the forums , they will find them. They will also find other players to help them. So my point is , this is the last place to try and blow smoke.

  I told you once , that golf is a game of honesty, and integrity.If you cant be honest , then what can you be? The dropped shots, meter spikes , false green reads, false wind meter reads are all programmed into the game. So the disclaimers are as much of a farce as the people who make them. So once again, Golf Is a game of HONESTY. Happy Swinging

  You really think any of that is coming from them? Pretty sure you've just been playing since june of last year and still can't figure out how to read greens or the wind....

  It's a constant killer of desire to play this game that it is so unrealistic and so easy to figure out how they consciously put invisible traps in the game to force players to spend money on equipment.

  Shots are deliberately made ​​shorter than they actually are shot if there is a bunker or water in front, so it is impossible to avoid getting in the bunker or water.
  
  There are instructional video lessons on how to put backspin on the ball and thus avoid they run out of greens, but it has absolutely no effect when you play with the standard equipment.

  Balls hit from the semi rough - even from the first cut - always get shorter than they are hit. 

  I wonder how long people are stupid enough to put up with being made fools of in this way by WGT. It is beneath all criticism.

   

  You joined 2 and a half years ago. I think that answers the question.

  Great post TBE and your avatar pic proves you've gone blue in the face talking about this stuff. ;-)
