    As you have very diligently pionted out the spelling mistake found within the FAQ section would you also pull your friends up on mistakes while in matchplay i think not

    srellim234:
    Having a bad day, Shrude?

    Nope.

    srellim234:
    A typographical error is a mistake. It is a mistake in spelling.

    Semantics, it not the same as you were eluding to this horrific uneducated WGT who cant spell

    srellim234:
    At the very least the writer should be using a spellcheck program and have someone else proofread copy before posting

    Well your heading was "WGT CANT SPELL"
    Perhaps it should be "WGT missed a couple of typos"

    Typos aren't always picked up by spellcheckers.

    With the dozens of pages within this website, you have found 3 isolated incidents, can you find two more?

    Hardly a reason to go bleating and babbling like a raped sheep. Is it?

    srellim234:
    No one ever said the whole planet cared or should care.

    srellim234:
    I wonder how many more mistakes WGT has posted for the world to see.

    I think 'the world'   is a planet, right?

    srellim234:
    It can have an affect on potential investor decisions.

    LOL WGT had investors worth millions into this website before the 3rd course was released and the pro shop had 2 brands.
    I think they would also be smart enough to ignore a few typos.

    srellim234:
    dismissing from consideration applicants with spelling errors on their resumes.

    3 typos on a page of 10000 words is admissible. Its not bad spelling, it is blatantly obvious they are typos.

    Don't sweat the petty things. (and dont pet the sweaty things)

     

    ps. Your lInk wasn't marked up.

    Shrude, you want two more examples? Here you go.

    "At what level will my character start?

    You character will start at Level 1 when it is new. Existing players will automatically start at a higher level based on their previous tier: Amateur: Level 10, Pro: Level 20, Master: Level 30..."

    The second is from the chart listing the various awards

    "What are the awards that I can win?

    Round and Round

    Total number of comlpleted ranked rounds (9 or 18 hole)..."

    Beyond that, I'm not going to get into a series of petty arguments with you. As I said in the previous post, WGT will fix it at this point or they won't. You and I picking each other apart phrase by phrase will accomplish nothing.

    EDIT: I'm not yelling at you. I'm not intentionally putting the first sentences in bold print. It did not show as bold when I typed it and attempts to change it back to normal type aren't working.
