    TWEDLAKE:
    i get that and that's not my point at all.  My point is, do a search for this guy YJ with his 12k + posts.  Flames people over and over again and WGT lets him get away with it. over and over again.  Why's that?  Especially when WGT pulls their crap with people like me who after almost 5 years here and 132+ posts, are still "moderating" my posts.  So they moderate my lame/tame posts so bully's like this clown can do what they want here?

    And my point is that the OP hasn't really done much to earn respect or civil replies. (By the way, I know who YJ is. I don't need to do a search of his posts. But you're not sucking me into that aspect of your post.)

    Regardless, as Larry points out, you can ask to be taken off moderation. It's not always been automatic that people are taken off moderation when they hit a certain number of posts. People get overlooked. I had to ask. I simply posted to a moderator's wall and asked nicely. I was taken off moderation the same day.

    So, instead of complaining about it, why don't you do something about it? And in the meantime, try to realize that you're not being treated differently than a lot of other people. It's not all that unusual to have to ask to be taken off moderation.

    DoctorLarry:

    Have you posted nicely on a moderator's wall to ask for an end to "moderation".  I did and they helped.

    BTW - the clown in this thread is the OP - and they have deleted some of his earlier rants and belittlements.

     

    yes sir did that several times over a year or so.. nothing..

     

    touche' on the clown part

    not complaining about anything other than YJ's attitude towards others and is allowed to do so over and over again.

    As for asking, I've done so many times over the past 2 years here, on mods pages (oh yeah some of those mods pages say "don't leave a message here I don't read them.. LOL), i've sent in to support - all attempts ignored.. I'm done.. you guys just keep bashing people here, i'll go play golf...

    Fair enough.

    Personally, I've always found the moderators to be open, fair, reasonable, and quick to respond. 

    Hit 'em straight and seldom.

    Completely uncalled for YJ.

    Not exactly. Among other things, in previous (now deleted) threads, the OP has called people "stupid" and an "ass." So, I don't know that the responses he receives are uncalled for. 

    It took all my self control to not totally blast him when he called some of my friends and players I respect an Idiot  or a moron because they disagreed with him. And unless they just deleted that thread it is still active. 

    Get to blasting then!

    You in your little mind cannot see the bigger part of this.

    Me, not you, Robert, Yankees or the other have been with this game longer than me. 

    I wAs playing when it truly was just a beta game trying to get off the ground, all the promising and all the so called fixes that were supposed to be done 9 years ago have NEVER happened. While I give credit for fixing glitches with the meter and what was constant meter lag, there is no reason that WGT cannnot invest the money to improve. 

    Robert your right in some aspects of it not being so simple to fix aspects of the game, it is more than code.  But you would think given the amount of time this game has been out there would have been some sort of added fixes to issues like camera angles and better putting features. 

    Mat this point you can draw your own conclusions as to me, keep on throwing me under your little bus. I’m playing more now and will give it a fair shake over the next few months.

    So go ahead there born, blast away and prove the point iv already made !!!! 

    Thanks and have a great day.

    JasonDurham:
    I had a match that my opponents ball when into the hole and then lipped out? We both agreed that ball should have gone in and stayed in. 

    Putting is all about speed and ball control.

    Too strong of a putt and you will get lip outs.

    Just because your ball hits the hole ,doesn't automatically mean you will get rewarded

    Playing downhill putts require even more speed control. Putting is a specific talent & of all the golf skills one  aspires to master  it is by far the skill toughest to conquer  .

    Don't let one putt that didn't go in sway you

    Continue to practice 

    Learn to master your ball speed

    And the putts will fall in.

    As long as you think negatively  

    Negative results will follow.

    Smile and enjoy the game.

    I have been playing for quite awhile

    I still work on my short game

    It;s what we have to work with 

    Make the most of it

    Practice 

    Practice

    Practice

    Awesome advice to the Op. Practice Man
