Ok, so we've had "what you like about the forum"

[janmolby]

I would prefer the forum to resize to browser size but i suppose that will have something to do with the side banners?

Also the I-pad "server/page not found" issue is really starting to grate, must be something to do with the port security settings in safari which you cannot change on i-pad as far as i am aware.

Other than that all is good.

Cheers

Steve...

I've never had that issue Steve when I've been on the forum on my ipad, when do you usually get it? Give some more details & maybe someone might know how to fix it for you

19 & 20 handicapers who droll over Mizuno MP59 & 69 irons saying how much they want them, wake up guys you ain't going to be able to hit them look at JPX if you want Mizuno.

People who would post on the opening of a packet of crisp's just for to get there post numbers up.

Someone who alaways advertises his V Easy gets on my tits, pay for advertising like the rest of the companies stop ramming it down our throats.

The slagging of Smiffy with " knob" its boring guys it ain't that when he's always organising your outings every week isn't it.

What ball ,what waterproofs, what bag check the search

The rant goes on.

Those who give a blow by blow of every shot the hit in a round after 100 is boring as hell

I'll be back later with more.

That's put a smile on my face.

And mine! Despite some of it aimed at me

I still can't work out if he's being serious or not!

Nice work Steve!

I would have to guess not as he has just described every post on here. If he is you would have to wonder why he logs on at all.

Having met the bloke, I would bet my mortgage on him taking the pish, but if I read it in his grumpy old man scottish accent, it sounds believable.

Better to just read "website feedback" options. That's where I put my gripes for what there worth.

 

[Oddsocks]

Using stuff like 'teh' instead of 'the' , it makes me squirm every time I read it.

i don't see what teh problem is...

Seeing the reaponse on a thread of "+1", is it that hard to write something intelligent?

Folk that don't bother to read their post before sending and it is full of spelling and grammar mistakes, either laziness or ignorance IMO.

And the constant mind numbing threads on which ball or waterproof suit, there is a perfectly good search function why not try that before posting?

+1

Proving my point.

Why do people only ever spit coffee?

Guilty as charged - I have now reduced my sig length by 75%.

You can turn signatures off by the way.


PMSL, really? You should see a doctor about that.

 

[timgolfy]

People stating opinions as a matter of fact.

Example:
Q: Should I sail west to see what's out there?
A: You shouldn't do that as you will fall off the end of the world.
= Don't practice your swing on the range, you'll gain nothing from it.

Example:
Q: I would like to build a train that goes faster than 40mph. Any suggestions how to achieve that?
A: You'll suffocate if you go faster than 40mph. Do as I do and keep it slow.
= What's the point it gaining power?

Example:
Q: Is there any benefit in studying science and why things work?
A: No. Read poems and the bible.
= Good golfers have natural talent that can not be replicated by ordinary people.

Miss-spelling swear words.

On other forums I go on they have swear filters and people get banned for avoiding the swear filter by substituting characters.

There isn't (as far as I know) a swear filter here so why the need to avoid it?
Everyone knows what you mean, so just write it. If it's unsuitable to write then it's unsuitable to miss-spell as well.

 

[User20205]

1- Posters who get precious when their outlandish claims are questioned. (How are those Tour comparable drives Tim?)

2- Posters who ask for advice in an abrupt manner & don't acknowledge the response.

3- Posters who behave in a way they would never do in person

people who use the word "feck" or any of its derivatives..

Bollocks, you phat pheck

 

[Imurg]

The Ask the Experts section is severely lacking in "Experts".
Apart from Bob and maybe Jason and Ethan the "Shaft Guru", there are no real experts here. Plenty of experience but expertise...?
I always thought GM were going have Experts replying to questions in this section.

Too many people are just plain grumpy. If someone's had a good round or want to share something then let them. Read the initial post and if you don't want to get involved in it then ignore it from that point. I probably only read half the threads as some of them just don't appeal.

People dismissing other's opinions - disagree by all means but put forward an arguement to change opinion...

Oh and what's wrong with calling Smiffy a knob?
He is a knob and he knows it!!
