I have been playing here at WGT for over
eight months. For the past six months I have kept a record of my shots in
an MSword doc so I would know how to shoot the same shot next time. Now
after this last maintenance disaster that the WGT programmers have forced
on the players, everything is screwed up.
ALL my shots are falling short. During
the games, that is what most of the talk is about, and it’s not happy talk. I played a game with a master today who shot 6
over and said he had not shot 6 over since he was a pro… not a happy camper. Same thing… all his shots were falling
short. He too said he didn’t want to
learn everything all over again. I am
not about to start a new sheet because either (1) The programmers think it’s
funny that no one is playing at the level as they have worked themselves up to,
or (2) They are incompetent. Again, (1)
They like screwing with people and pissing them off, or (2) They don’t know
what they’re doing. It’s almost like you
had really good programmers who created this game, and then they left leaving amateur
programmers who are still trying to figure out how to program this site. After playing here for
eight months the game will still give you a 150 putter if you are 10 feet from
the hole if you are on the fringe. That
is a “don’t give a damn” attitude. Your
FIRST rule should be… “do no harm!”
Who and I?
A retired programmer and can see the incompetence of what they call
maintenance. So… here is my
suggestion. Hire new programmers that want
to keep your players happy and buying products like clubs and balls, because if
they continue pissing off everyone with their incompetent programming people
are going to start looking for other golf sites. You may have the best site now, but if you
keep this level of programming up, in the future you WILL lose customers to
them! I may not be the best programmer
in the world, but I have enough sense to keep from screwing things up. If you can’t do maintenance without screwing
things up, then leave it alone!!!
