when tee signs are placed perpendicular to the tee instead of facing the direction of play. tee signs in front of the tee bother me but not as much as that.

If you play a hole well, that score "should" be a birdie. Sounds like a Par 4 by design even if the sign says Par 3.
I've also seen where someone took a marker and changed the distance of the hole on a tee sign.
Sharpie on signs, benches, tables, etc. is another big peeve of mine.
Do we really need more "Disc Charging Stations"? :wall:

IMO, if you play well you should get a par, if you play excellently then you should birdie it.
Just playing "well" shouldn't result in birdies....
I like to play my casual rounds as if I am in a tourney. I don't like playing with someone that throws 3 or 4 discs on every tee pad.
I respect that, but I am one of those people who you wouldn't want to play with. I just quit playing with a group who treat their "casual rounds" as you do. I find it to be a joyless experience. If I want to play a serious competitive round I'll sign up for a tournament. This is why my pet peeve is bag tags. They turn every round into a friendly, but not really friendly competition.
My idea of a casual round is more like what you see on a Jomez Practice Round; alot of conversation and experimenting with discs and shots.

For quite a few, the most fun means having the lowest score. Steady Ed's tenet works for them, too. .Whoever has the most fun wins, not the person with the lowest score.
I really am just trying to make golfers remember that playing though is a courtesy, not a right.

But the opposite is so true too... is there anything better than playing through and throwing a perfect shot?

Not sure I agree with the spirit of this. I can agree that nobody can demand playing through by right, but it should be considered mandatory to let a group play through if they are being forced to wait due to your pace of play. It isn't out of good graces, it is to be expected. It is like those people that ride the left lane going the speed limit. Yes you are driving legally, but you are also being a jerk.
My pet peeve is groups that tee off lightning fast but play slow as molasses. You can never catch them on the teepad to play through.
Pars for individual disc golf holes. There's no definition! Course par maybe could work?

It's actually illegal in at least 8 states to drive in the left lane when you are not passing someone or making a left turn.
