I really don't mind as long as my playing partners are quiet and pretty still when I tee off.
I wouldn't have a problem if some one asked me to stand else where whilst they tee off(it's really not a problem is it)

Oh I thank you - I really do. This is so simple but clearly lots of folk get it wrong without realising it
I hope that they take on board what they did not know - I am glad to be of service. And btw this is nothing to do with crusty old majors (believe me - the old guys I played with on the Glasgow muni I started on were far from that) - it is all to do with showing respect and consideration to your PP.
It obviously is for some, they feel they shouldn't have to ask, we should all know our place!!

Are you being serious ?
There is no right or wrong place unless you can show me something written down in a rule book

Why is it better to face them rather than be behind them?
Stood facing their rear-end there's no chance of being seen........just getting a follow-through instead....

Who says they had it right? Or is this just what they prefer?

In all seriousness mate, I have absolutely no issue with standing wherever my PP wants me to stand. If they ask me to stand in a certain position on the first tee, then I'll stand in that position all day without any complaint. I have no wish to disrupt someones concentration..
However, I do think that the accepted convention should be "Still and Quiet, and in a position to watch the ball when it's struck."
Its not often I will agree with you, but, I'm with you on this one. Once I'm stood in a particular place, still and quiet, that's it, if a left hander and then a right hander goes to the tee, I ain't shuffling about, I'm staying putt, unless asked politely to move.

I honestly don't know how people get through every day life if things like this upsets them.

What you are saying is ill informed rubbish - exactly the same sort of rubbish as my missus got told by some crusty old wifey when she started and now she's prone to holding up play by standing exactly opposite her FC for their second shot instead of walking briskly to her ball to play her shot as soon as possible.
It's never been the accepted convention that you stand directly opposite the player who is on the tee - it is accepted convention that you stay still and quiet and out of their way.
