    thank for this WGT - now my meter has gone to *** and it keeps blipping just before the click line.

     

    I am not sure if this meter gadget is the culprit, but I have had a constant "glitch" ever since the update.

    My meter hangs up and then surges without warning. I can take 2 or 3 practice swings and I still get a meter stop at the left hash and then zoom.

    Seldom have this problem but now this game is unplayable for me.

    I went back and  read the entire thread...The idea was put out there as a way  to combat cheating, and just like here, with one or two exceptions, people were totally against the idea.  Even the original poster commented that he would rather WGT do something to detect and outlaw the cheating programs than implement this, but as we all know, WGT has done nothing in that area.  Because one or two people thought this was a good idea to compete against the cheaters out there did WGT take this as a referendum that ALL of WGT wasbehind this?  No, all WGT saw was $$.  Should we be surprised?

    alanti:
    Time to step away from the forums for a bit, as complaining (albeit often trying to be constructive) is a total waste of time.

    I haven't gotten worked up concerning WGT self-serving decisions for quite awhile now.

    When they say they make a change to create more realistic game...................

    They really mean.................

    We are doing our best to squeeze as many dollars out of the consumer as we possibly can~~~~ couldn't care less about integrity of the game.

    I agree , the input of the masses in the forums fall on deaf ears.

    They aren't concerned about the opinions of the long time better players as they assume that there is a finite shelf life to this game.

    So they cow tow to the newer players 

    The people who have yet to know better and are willing to blindly spend money on a new toy.

    The best way to exhibit your displeasure is not to spend money on this site.

    I for one do not play much anymore.

    Consequently I am not feeding the WGT greed machine.

    What once was a challenging game that only the most talented could shoot a top score..................

    IS NOW FOR SALE.

    Dissatisfied??  

    Join their competitors website.\The best way to protest.

    Hugs

    Allie, we have had our differences in the past, but I'm with you 100%.  The R and A would be having nightmares: the very integrity of the game is under siege.  Surely WGT has a conscience?  Doesn't it?  Or is this the beginning of the end?

    Some of my members dont use this WGT forum (in fact 95% dont), so i have had to explain to the what the green flash is all about and to urge them NOT TO FOOKIN USE IT!

    Not because its a cheat for the rich, but that the shameless will be making money from you, then when you go back to your normal meter, yes the one you are enjoying trying to hone in with, then you will suffer.

    Now ive told them, as they are lower tiers, who are working there way up really well, then you still need to do your maths and your mapping (not always flag hunting), so it means jack sh!t to you, but it will to the really good players on here.

    Level playing field is all we are asking WGT, the day i shoot 54s etc (it will never happen), then i will be bored to death IMO, i like being average the majority of the time, as i darn well appreciate it when things go well.

    No logic in what they have done, other than to create money (oops did i say no logic)

    I used to like coming on forum for funny debates, bit of ribbing etc, but pretty much depressing on here now, and WGT have caused that.

    The CC xp/passes/clashes signaled the beginning of the end to me.

    This focus boost is the next step in the descent and death of this once fine game.

    Tis a shame...  agree 100% with allie...  buying games...  forget it.. what happened to playing under your own merit/knowledge of the game by experience... NOT WITH AIDE FROM PROGRAMS.....  30 cents or not....  RUINED THE GAME
