You know Jeff, if you had started this thread to crticize Acess Whoring it would be one thing. But you ripped the whole DG and said it is dead, USELESS, and that is that really pissed me off. Here is what you wrote:
"Maybe, I am the only one here that feels this way. Maybe some of you think the DG is going strong right now. I can tell you, that I spend a lot more time at a site created by an ex-member here that fits my needs and wants out of discussing course architecture and golf in general. Like I said, I still come here often and check out everything but this DG is dysfunctional. Just look at all the great contributors that have left. I know I am kind of rambling but I truly find it sad that this DG has turned into a gossip board that talks more about Tiger Woods than St. Andrews or who's got a bigger brain on the Merion threads. I'm sick of the elitist mentalities, the groveling access whores, and relatives of famous golfers telling us how the game should be played.
Bring back Tommy Naccarato. "
I say you are full of crap. Maybe there are a few AW's here, but they are a TINY minority and I would never let that stop my enjoyment of this site. The are 10 first page threads today that are as good or better than the year 2000. I went back and read them.
(OK, Mcwood, Cirba, TEP, Moriarity are playing nicely in a padded room , but we leave them alone...)
You totally rip something that many of us reallly enjoy: this website, and we are gong to react accordingly. I love this website and you no longer do. MOVE ON
