Farewell WGT (and none too fondly),
I played my last round on WGT yesterday and will not be back for the following reasons:
(1) WGT's ongoing inability to provide a stable game platform resulting in FIVE disconnects and/or freezes on the FIRST hole of an Alternate Shot match (and not all on my computer); a freeze in the middle of a 30' putt which resulted (after reconnecting) in changing the putt from 60' strength to 150' in mid-stroke; etc.
(2) The number of rude WGT members who essentially "walk off the course" on the first or second hole of Match Play because they are 1 or 2 down. It has reached the point where I will not play anyone who is not "Green completion". C'mon folks, this is only "virtual" and I hate to think this is how you would behave on a real golf course. Perhaps you do (such behaviour would see you ejected from my club) and is why you are relegated to displaying such petty childishness on WGT.
(3) WGT's focus on selling credits for REAL money so that you can buy VIRTUAL equipment and no effective way to otherwise accumulate points. Don't get me started on "Complete a Survey"...
(4) The suspect ability of some players to post ridiculously low scores. Case in point: MP against a player who (on paper) is 3 strokes better than me, in a 25 mph wind, with difficult pins, yet he manages to hit EVERY shot to within 6'. One or two, possibly; 3 or 4, hmm? But EVERY??? Oh I know, "he just had a good round" and "I should play more" but it's still called "Sandbagging"..
