Product Suggestions => Infinite Vortex?

  I follow the forums mainly to see what ideas people have to improve the game.  I mean we all want a better game, right?  But after reading these product suggestions for going on a year now can anyone give me an example of a game improvement that came about from a player suggestion?  I mean it seems like a big waste of time for people to continue to make suggestions if they fall on deaf ears or go into the proverbial infinite vortex...  We all appreciate the occasional free balls, etc but how about responding to the persistent requests - more avatars, driving range, putting green, country club improvements, new equipment options, etc, etc.  Give us an up or down, yes or no, will consider, not gonna happen.  If this is a beta product, shouldn't the users be more involved in it's ongoing development?

  I completely agree. Some feedback from the developers and/or staff on what suggestions will be taken into consideration would be great. I'd like to know if i make a suggestion whether or not it would be viewed as a good idea.

  I also agree... Does WGT people even follow these?... How bout spending a litttle more time on answering  our questions/dilemmas  and less on posting real life golf statistics... i mean dont get me wrong its awesome and all... but i can get those from the golf channel if i want... However it seems to take an act of god to get a responce from wgt on anything... whats up with that?

  So, were these all from user requests or are these just adds from WGT?  I do agree that the concede hole was raised by users, so am sure you are correct about that.  But I don't remember people making repeated requests for Nike balls, etc.  Anyhow, don't you agree that some honest feedback would be helpful?  For example "we will not be adding a driving range for these reasons...", or perhaps sharing their game development plans.  Right now the communication seems a bit one-sided.

  I think wgt should monitor the jerks coming this site.

  It's sick to think that people are putting porn pics on there avatar like SAMI128. There are also a lot of women putting nude pics on here. I mean, damn, they have sites for crap like that and it's not WGT!

  Check out the link to his profile yourself

  well lets be realistic - the world and WGT is ruled by the almighty buck ! i have several product suggestions that WGT could profit from.  the pro shop is the supermarket of WGT and credits are the currency - weather purchsed or earned by watching videos or completing surveys. i feel if an idea is good enough to be implemented and WGT charges credits for the "new" product or event - then fair compensation should be awarded to the ideas creator. socialism at it's best.  for instance i will put forward two (i think) excellent ideas in which WGT could profit.  these two are free to WGT  - if they choose to imlement them or not.  the first idea  - sell balls with flags on them - they can be flags of countries or WGT nation flag.  second free idea  - to add some more avatars. i would pay to have an avatar of a john daly or bing crosby type. speaking of avatars i believe sales would rise if the price went down. i would rather spend credits on balls  equipment or green fees before i bought clothes. remember what geting clothes for christmas was like. i have several more ideas i feel would fly and WGT could charge playrswhat they think is fair.     just my two cents worth  thanks
