Quoted from Chosen_S:

I’ve been dreading bringing this up for a while, And I’m sure I know what everyone’s opinion is going to be. But I thought I would throw this idea into the open and see what the consensus would be.
Regarding the flipper gap. As has been stated in the past that the design was not meant to have the wide typical flipper gap for the designers usual flow, and has been Typical practice by everyone here to add carrot flavors or the center post if the flipper gap bothered the machine owner.
I have been contemplating for the last couple of years on routing the flipper post holes to allow a semi permanent and reversible 1/8 inch re-positioning of the flipper mech bracket; to each left and right flipper. Of course this modification is to bring the flippers closer together to original desired design but still maintain the Integrity of the machine to allow for full reversal of the modification and to be able to put the mechs right back in the original place should it be desired to move later on.
I’m curious what everyone’s thoughts are on this idea if it where to be thought of as common practice for Ghostbusters if I attempted this modification to the playfield and if others followed suit.

What Freddy said.. leave it alone!!
I personally have no idea why people complain so much about the flipper gap.. If it was any closer the game would be way to easy!!
Play the shit outta it and become a better player. work on ball saves, post passes and making your shots correctly or just give up and sell it to someone who will.

Quoted from shaunpurslow:

New member here as well! Pro came in this week. Right flipper has been crapping out after about 15-20 minutes or so though. So I ordered some new coils. Fingers crossed those will do the trick. But I absolutely love the game. The shots are so damn satisfying.

What does the flipper do?! Does it stick? Might just be your coil stops that need replaced not the whole coil
