Just so everyone is aware, I've been in conversation with Eric via private message over on the HB forums and he and I have come to a better understanding. I hope I have helped to alleviate his concerns by giving him some better information. I don't think he intends to come back here but he does wish us the best of success and I believe he does genuinely mean that. I think we can put this one to bed at this point.
I hope, though, that everyone knows that if there is any concern about any particular person no matter who they are, we have an open door policy...we just ask you approach us privately. Same goes for any issue you have with the our efforts. I'll be happy to answer any questions from any one at any time.

As the person that started this thread I do agree that it was handled well. It was great to talk to Jeff privately and be able to explain to him where my outburst came from. At the end of our conversation I truly believe that he and I had a respect for one anothers points of view on the said subject and it was put to rest. I'm sorry if I offended anyone in the process. |

This is only my experience and in no way am I saying this is fact, but I've come to the conclusion that while TGC tours is doing what appears to be the best it can to try and keep things fair for all players, it seems that it times the line is very blurry. I admittedly have only competed in Qschool (and qualified for my Euro card) But I haven't had a chance to play any of the tourny's yet but I've had time to observe scores with a keen eye. In no way do I think for a minute that all video gamers are created equally, but I'm not too sure that I want to spend my personal time playing in a tour where the people that organize and run the event are constantly putting up VERY LOW rounds and shooting consistent uncanny shots. Let me reiterate, that I'm not saying that any rules are being violated, I'm just stressing that I personally don't feel good about being a part of an event where the people heavily involved in the screening process (for straight shooters) and things of that nature are spanking everyone... I mean, who makes the decisions on them and their games? I've watched a few rounds of some of these amazing players to only see them using Sand Wedge glitches that enable them extreme distances when de-lofted as opposed to using the proper club by golf standards. Why is it okay to do this, but not chip on the green? Now the TGC tours has decided too many people were chipping on the green and getting an advantage and now will be disqualified as a product of it I find this a bit tick tacky.. Am I someone who likes to chip on the green occasionally? Yes I do, but I try to putt as much as possible as well... I see some of this as cherry picking myself in regards to what you can and can't do... There is no rule against this in real life golf, even though it's not of great etiquette to do so. I just want to say that my comments more or less come from an outside looking in perspective because I have not been active in the tour thus far, but have been watching closely. Personally the experience I did have in dealing with some of the people involved were positive and I have nothing bad to say about them. Bottom line is lots of guys that I teamspeak with agree on these points, and there is lots of discussion going on about these things. I give credit to the guys at TGC tours for trying to put together a fun place to compete but I'm afraid there are too many little things that contribute to mark being missed in my humble opinion. Where is the dislike button? This is just ridiculous. |

Lol, another quality post by Johneric, spends all his time crying and whinging about how better everyone is than him. Then tries to justify why this is by accusing everyone of cheating. The guy is mongo.
