  Whats flawed is the pro who's leading the pro tier 3 click cabo tournament who has only been a member a month or 2 and suddenly scores 55's as soon as HE starts playing ready go's is still here playing this game.  It seems Its o.k to cheat nearly $200 in a month

  yupps....but if you're a 14 yr old kid and mistakenly play 1 mpc for creds, you'll have your account closed in a heartbeat.

  anyone wanna chime in about double standards?

  ok...I'll start by asking if we can have 1 standard for everyone.

  if something's not right.....it shouldn't matter how much money someone is spending cause that still doesn't make it right.

  Integrity should come before greed.  Bumping multy's into a new tier does not cut it.  Forget about the fact the 2nd accounters have bought nice shiny MAX irons, Any one who wins loads of free tournaments and ready go's after a week or 2 membership or has suddenly won over $100 yet is new to the game should have accounts instantly banned and all equipment & credits thrown into a prize for a free tournament for genuine players.  Let them benefit from the Ill gotten gains of the cheats who've cheated them.  I posted some where else asking if WGT verify these tournament leaders or know whats going on and just turn a blind eye because their bank manager has told them its good business practice to have as much cheats as possible, and to hand them max irons as a reward

  Basically WGT greed is killing the game. They should start banning multi accounters. How do you detect it ?. They can have two ip address , two email , two paypal... Its impossible. 

  They could ban two games in same ip then suspend older account instead of new account. :)

  People will stop playing if the same people winning all games. hahaha.

  Others should get equal chance if wgt not attempting to make it as real. 

  For game has to be tough and random. Clubs should not be this good,\

  Cheating aside

  There needs to be balance. Revenue vs More people playing the game.

  You have to make tougher only for top tier. Not for all.  At present Top tier had it easy with 287 yard driver and r11 iron and nike 5 dot ball , instead of friggin tougher. It basically kills the purpose of growth. There is nothing to achieve in this game.

  You make it easy for beginner to have birdie , eagle.. So they continue to play. This game concept of fun is reversed. Starters have more difficulty and Better (money spenders) players have it easy. i think there need to be skill players only have fun and every one use same clubs level.

  No use to introduce new tier after TL. below 50 score is useless.. it just makes it ridicolous.

  Thats why we need HARDCORE (same clubs for all but ball can be different so wgt make money)  level. New setup. New average system.

  Alex those three paragraphs and two points are contradictory IMHO. If you make it even more difficult for the top players yet easier for the beginners wouldn't that just encourage even more 'top players' to become multis?

  Winning purse is higher for top tier like 10 times. So that way no one really play lower tier. Multi accounters sandbagging because its easy. You have to make it difficult and make it no use for creating another account. if you have TL account why you make another one?. Winning credits has to be 1/5 for legends 1/10 for masters etc.

  I am trying to give my opinion. WGT does what it does. Its great FLASH golf game though. 

  Just need to fix some issues.

  How many real players in WGT ? i can't waste my time developing product and no one buys. hahaa...its not golf but its supports ur game.

  It's s catch-all though. First you've got cases where more than one member of a household plays. Do you get banned because your wife created an account?

  Then you've got dynamic IPs which mean that you can't start banning IPs or ranges without harming genuine players.

  Ultimately any multi-accounter can pull out the "it's my partner/flatmate/cat" argument and there has to be a common sense approach as to whether a "new" player can shoot 55s after one practice round.

  Stop paying out cash or prizes,it's that simple.
