fool yourselves bottom line is cheats should not be discussed here in these forums at all
that should be a no, no i can tell you about other programs that are used to cheat with but why
so people can learn how to cheat, and if you think people won't use them you are very wrong.
all im saying on this keep talking about it and it will end up being a huge problem. i will just stick with my mouse play
so i won't be accused of the stuff the controller players are bound to have to face here in the future.

You desperately want this swing type back but then you go on to say the above, I happen to think you're spot on if its brought back people will cheat

Well as no one really looks at the leaderboards anymore so we hear from many people, if and it's a BIG IF controllers come back and someone decides they need to cheat, they will stick out like a sore thumb. If someone suddenly starts beating myself, NIBNOB, cubbies to name just 3, we might smell a rat and then and only then it can be looked into. Until such an event occurs, just carry on playing looking at your personal "frenemies" on the leaderboards (if you still look at them) and all is good in the world.

Why the paranoia over the controller is beyond me. There is no way a controller player can compete with the 3C crowd and that's fact yet it appears the 3C crowd is ready to jump off a cliff and not all of them but most and I don't get it at all. If somebody wants to cheat they will cheat and that goes for both controller and mouse and we all know that so instead of fighting over this just allow all and see how it plays out. We are a dwindling few and losing players everyday to TGC so lets all put our big boy and girl pants on and do what's best to increase players here.

Me too.
As it is, I have yet to ever play in a single tourney or anything here and I certainly am not going to if the only way I play (RTS-C) isn’t allowed.

Guys what am I missing here?
Is everybody wagering hundreds of dollars on this or what is the big risk?

This is video game golf for goodness sake.
I’d love to participate but this is just silly

Up until recently there was the RTCC tourney (Country Club) run by SimChars1963 but due to lack of numbers it closed.

Oh..
I don't think I realized that existed.

I admit - I'm totally confused by the site. There is so much going on with scrolling text and leaderboards up top..
All just greek to me..
