i have not read thru the whole thread but i think cue ball only fouls should not be abandoned to avoid arguments and possible dishonest use of all ball rules by an opponent
also cue ball only rule has been around along time and i dont recall much problems withit ever being mentioned
regarding the reasons posted below
1)yes pool should be played properly...cue ball only fouls do not prevent that
2)cant really disagree with that but cue ball only rule could the the rule used to be the same rule by all leagues
3)that could be true but those tournaments sre usually refereed ....i am not against all ball foul rules in those instances or done on a case by case basis
4)complex to you maybe but they have been used for a long time without much problem
for a newbie everything is complex
5)usually that is true
6)just because it is simple does not mean it does not present another bunch of problems....."my shirt did not touch that ball"
for example
last point
if you slightly touch a ball which has absolutely no effect on the result of the shot
possibly losing the game or match because of that seems like an excessively severe penalty for a very small infraction
JMHO

Like with all changes, at first some don't like it. But eventually, they get used to it and move on to get pissed at something else.
WPBA also play CB foul only, start there and move down to amatuer leagues until CB foul only will be a thing of the past.

Too late I already bought one from someone else... I guess you're not really selling this one...

Says who? That's my point. It's golf if I call it golf. The R&A and the USGA don't get the absolute say on what is called golf. They get the absolute say on what THEY call golf. That's where their governance ends.

Oh, and I've had many an afternoon ruined waiting for some of those "golfers" to take a damn shot and to putt everything out. But I just accept it as it is - after all, that's what they agreed to, so who am I to say what they should or shouldn't be doing?

Sure.

And you can play "baseball" without someone pitching the ball to you too...

Again, I don't care. But don't expect others to be impressed by your great batting average.

Maybe they need Match Room's help to make it bigger

I just realized something today. The predator air rush does not have a Vault Plate. The BK rush does have a vault plate.

Thank Ryan, I assume you are saying before you put the final finish coats over the wrap, like in the case of a Meucci. I ask because I wanted some confirmation if anyone did the epoxy sealer over the wrap before the final finish coats.

I play in a league with about 60 people in central MS and we never have arguments...probably not typical. We have beginners and some mid 600 Fargo...I think they are glad to play whatever the rules are. We play by CSI rules. I think the biggest difference in attitude comes from the fact that we redraw our teams every session and all teams have experienced players and beginners. We often coach players on the opposing team. Pool players aren't any better or worse than any other group, It is the culture created by the league operator/owner. IMO.
