Club clash #86: Emergency Problem

  No problem with me that the xp glitch was fixed.  But a little notice would have been nice, as everyone knew that it really wasn't a "glitch" because WGT chose to not fix it since the first xp glitch in April 2017...followed shortly thereafter by the new glitch (play a custom course first to unlock the glitch and follow it by playing a round on any non-custom course) that we saw for about a year and a half until yesterday.

  The truth is, WGT is going to save me (and a lot of other people) a lot of money.  My questions for Champ are:

  1)  In light of this change, you have made my Premier Membership pretty much worthless.  I have 286 days remaining on it.  Can I get a refund?  We should be able to do this, I think, as we purchased it because of this xp glitch.

  2)  Is WGT going to adjust the numbers for leveling up (individually or as a CC), or is the intent to cap everyone's personal level at 200 and every CC at level 22?  

  3)  Will there ever be any high level equipment available (to people beyond level 103) or any benefits for a country club who reaches level 21 or 22?

  If the answer to all of the above questions is "No", then what surprises me the most is that WGT just made a decision that will cost them hundreds of thousands of dollars of income!  If I were a stock holder, I'd be pretty upset, hahahaha!

  You are right on Nancy. I can't tell you how many passes I have bought for that glitch.

  I don't don't need the levels at 119 and my club is L-19. I was trying to get to L-20, No More.

  I got Premier for that glitch, did not re-new it and now i'm glad

  You don't want to know how many CC passes I have bought (and nor do I).  But suffice it to say, I have gotten over 68 million CC xp in just the last 63 weeks.  So it's been a lot...and not just passes, but golf balls too.

  I think it's very entertaining to see so many peeps who  have have nothing to gain from the XP so called glitch, but they are thrilled that it will take every body else much longer to level up;  and WGT will lose alot of money.   For this, you guys joy may be shortlived as WGT realizes they were shortsited and losing money.  They'll come up with something else you can name Glitch2

  I can tell you from my experience that people who were spending any considerable amount of money on this are in the minority. I am in a LVL 19 club with 200+ members and not one person has complained in our forum at all. I know quite a few club members used it including myself but at a max of two times per day with free passes. Unlike other clubs we don't encourage people to waste money on useless passes because there is nothing to gain from it as a level 19 club. And for everyone that thinks the high end clubs will make you competitive think again. It comes from playing thousands of ranked rounds on all the courses from the correct tees for your tier, not from playing red tee courses all day. I don't have any clubs above a LVL 99 3 wood and probably never will. I actually think it is quite funny that so many people have wasted their hard earned money on something that is totally useless.

  The term I'm alright Jack comes to mind a term used to describe those who act only in their own best interests even if assistance to others would necessitate minimal effort on their behalf.

  +1000 (except for the last sentence - I don't think it's necessarily "funny" nor a "waste" by other people who want to amass XP either for self, club, or both.  We each play this game for our own reasons, and I respect that some people's reasons can be different from mine.)

  I'm in my middle 60s, and retired, just before Halloween last year, I started having some back pains, which quickly turned to partial paralysis, I started falling down, for no reason. My diagnosis is spinal stenosis, with degenerative disc disease, I'm very lucky to be walking with the aid of a cane. In my garage sits a staff bag with over 1000 dollars of sticks, balls etc, which I'll never be able to use again. I've played real golf for over 50 years, and it kills me to know that I'll never swing those sticks again. If you think this game is a waste of money, think twice. I used to spend between 150 to 200 dollars a month on green fees, balls, beer etc, even more with country club dues, and with what to show for it? Yes, I've purchased the best wgt has to offer, but it comes no where near what I invested in the real world of golf. I take exception to the fact that you think it's funny that I (or many others like me) spend money on here, as it's our only form of touch , to a game I devoted my life enjoying. If you think that better equipment doesn't help you score better, then explain to me why tiger, phil, Jordan and others, don't get their clubs from walmart? I'm glad that people like us, make your day, and can make you laugh!!!!! Have a great holiday season.
