  There is nothing unfair about the zoom function if you use it for its intended purpose, but there will always be people who will abuse anything and everything.

  I like the smoother meter and glad to see zoom was taken off..Never had zoom, on real golf so why here..And if it helps to stop the unfair play,then leaving it off will be fine here..Once again my meter on Maxthon has NEVER been this smooth, Ron

  Firstly this isn't 'real golf' but even so irl you can always walk up for a closer look.

  And the fact that we stopped a player from using the cheat to steal credits is a good thing whether or not the zoom button is there or not.

  Yes, it is BUT did you really stop anything since you can still get to that zoom function?

  wish i could agree with you guys about the smooth meter mine has gone to pot.

  at least once a round the click is registering way to the right of the ding causing me to lose a ball and 2 shots as the ball flies oob,in to the water etc.

  normally i lose about 1 ball a month over the last 2 days i have lost 4

  WGTdbloshoe:

  Players complain about cheating ask us to do something.... we find a major cheat and I am very serious that this was a major cheat that caused a lot of issues and loss of credits.  We find it and fix it to make the game fairer for players and now we get complaints about zoom?  In all honesty what  would players prefer, being cheated out of credits or a zoom feature?

  Guess i don't understand how using the "zoom" was a "major cheat" and cost credits. I admit it never froze up my game.. The zoom did give a better look on some angles, but using the "chip" mode to move the grid around is more helpful. That said, it'd be nice to have the zoom back.

  The zoom wasn't the 'cheat'.

  WGTdbloshoe:

  You are right had to do with the play, rewind, and ff options.  But since those are all connected on the flash options when we removed them we removed everything.

  BTW - The zoom is still there, along with the stuff mentioned above, it just takes one more mouse click to get to it.
