To Be or Not to be HERE

Meet & Greet is where players can gather to arrange a game for a chat with other members, When a new member joins it most likely the first port of call to iether getting a game or to ask a question about something they do not understand.

It frustrates me when on entering Meet & Greet and see that there are a number of players already here only to find they are here in name only, I give the usually hello guys, but no answer :mad:

Part of the reason for this is that the link players use to reach PGLS Glofladders take them directly into M&G even though its clear that they just want to check scores on the leaderboards. I enter PGLS through http://pgls.golfladders.co.uk/forums/personal_page.php which as the link says takes me to my personal page and from there I can view any aspect of the site without having to enter M&G if i'm not looking for a game.

First impressions count a lot. So for a new member to enter M&G for the first time, what must they think when seeing 5 or 6 members in the room but they all seem to ignore that member when he says hi.

It doesnt take a second to change your status to bus or away, (That is what they are there for) or better still log out of M&G if you are not using it.

Its v ery rude to enter M&G and not say hello but it happens quite often, It gives a bad impression of Pgls if you dont bother to log out and sometimes your name can remain up there all day. So please please if you dont need to be in M&G please log out thank you

Which takes you to the forums page and is perfectly fine Warren.

What I think Paul is getting at is players have M & G saved as the link to PGLS, then navigate away from it to look around the rest of PGLS, leaving a "ghost" in M & G who isn't actually in there.

Correct Mark...Players who use the link to M&G for any other purpose than what it is for is like people walking into your home or work place just to use the toilet and completely ignoring those there, and then they dont even close the door behind them when they go. Using your own personel page allows you to see the latest all latest post and coments in the forum plus you have full access to everything on site without entering M&G. Please us the facility then when you are ready to chat or get a game, then you can enter M&G
