  why are lower levels players put at a disadvantage on the greens by being forced to play higher speed greens when playing higher ranked players?

  I think it's to make it more realistic? After all, when you play a higher handicap, he/she may use different tees but you all have same conditions? like wind, green speed, right?

  Ok so why not bring it down to the lower level tier instead of up to the higher one.. only fare if it goes both ways or else its a double standard...

  Disadvantage?  It's a small price to pay for the yardage advantage.

  Maybe it's to help prepare lower level players for what they face when they advance in tiers. Unless of course you don't plan to ever advance. Certainly hope thats not the case. LOL

  I feel the question is why.. as stated. But also my why. Why are we playing and paying for a game that really cares nothing about what you or I want. This question is getting harder to avoid for me and as such I have decided that the only real answer is to stop paying.

  This was really decided by the game site when i tried to spend real money on fake clubs and was denied. Now if the site is so damaged or geared to their needs that we can't even give away our money what makes you think they are doing anything at all to address our wants or needs.

  I doubt that this post even meets the world so delete away big brother but if they post its only cause that forum is only here to create the illusion that someone cares about what you think.

  They could make it so you can only play with those on your tier OR avything else they wanted to do. Everything is the way it is because thats how they want it and they dont care if you know it. Why don't they care... cause they know you will never stop playing or paying in protest.

  Now if you all stopped coming here for a month you would see a world of change as their advert dollars and your cash started to vanish. But till then you will be playing on overloaded servers that will crash fail and error out.

  And till Jesus returns they will blame your settings and cache.. good luck with all that providing you even get to read the truth. Icon will probably delete this personally.. lol

  Heh-Why would he? You didn't violate anything, you just spouted the same ignorance that others before you have. On the other hand, you seem to be very opinionated for someone here just a few days and that might lead to the discovery of your other ID. Then you'd have a problem.

  How about this one then if you wan`t FARE how about legends tee of at the same place as pro`s & masters do works both ways or else it is double sandard`s LOL Then you can have any green  speed you want. 

  Playing on tournament greens is a small price to pay for the 50 yards advantage you get of the tee box ?

  Good question JJIM what have you spend money on ?

  Ya, some more bad news for you SandyGreens.....Jesus is running late (really late) now aint that the truth..... He was reported to be on his way in his Triumph, but knowing British cars like i do....he's probably broken down.
