fatdan:
I understand this thread, but they already gave the answer to it so why another thread...
Just because someone has started a thread on a similar topic or in the same vein does make the point any less necessary. This isn't duplicating another thread for the sake of it.
Perhaps it conveys the point more clearly? Perhaps by highlighting the problem again it shows WGT that this still remains an issue for players? Perhaps it gives others a chance to say something who haven't seen other threads?
The point is that it is STILL a problem which could easily be resolved.
The main hurdle (as previously stated) is it's a change that doesn't produce profit for WGT and only affects a relatively small proportion of their customer base.
In essence it would be making a change to satisfy those customers and because it's the right thing to do....neither of which score highly on the WGT list of priorities.
On the other hand if they can introduce something as ineffectual as an applause every time a player scores a birdie, then sorting out the flags should be a minor task.
fatdan: The US flag doesn't have the right amount of stars or stripes and I don't like that, but not gonna start a thread or demand change...
I think that may have more to do with number of pixels...unless you're conveying your opinion on the actual U.S flag in which case I suggest you take this up with your local congressman.
fatdan: The only time I even think about the flag is if there is a post about s'thing and I have no idea what the poster is trying to convey, I look at the flag to see if it might be lost in translation or the poster is that f'n stupid....like some of my posts.
Still staring at the flag?
FTR...It's the 'Isle of Man'
