Most players, I believe, don't want to be a problem. They just want what we all want, to have a good round of golf, and that is all. If someone is truly that much of a problem, have the ambassador tell them to let you past or leave. To my knowledge, the ambassadors are the closest thing we have to "golf police".
As I stated earlier, I'm not attacking anyone, just the idea that some residents aren't good enough to play on the courses that they help pay for. May we all appreciate one another and appreciate each other for our shared love of the game.

It doesn't have anything to do with "not being good enough," Everyone is welcome to play golf. I think the OP is encouraging people to play from the proper tees.
When people play from tees that are beyond their ability they typically take more strokes and can slow the pace of play. If that means that they are falling behind then they slow the pace of all golfers behind them.
That's why there are different tees. So people can play from the one that best fits their ability.
