Would this idea work? It would still not be a place for CTE bashing.
Not a bad idea. Here would be my first order of business regarding the CTE Forum. (Why did you delete your post, Joey?)Easy solution is to have you moderate that subforum .
It will never be solved. Like the people you've named, who have never studied CTE, there will always be another coming along to enter there uninformed opinion. All these guys have zero interest in learning CTE, but here they are, 24 hours a day giving there opinion. By the way it's the same opinion over and over, never anything new. They can't post new stuff because they don't bother to put in any time to learn CTE. Hell, one guy has thought it was a fractional system for what, 25-30 years.Not a bad idea.

YOU'RE BANNED! Pat Johnson - BANNED! Lou Figueroa - BANNED! Dan White - BANNED!
All problems SOLVED with CTE.
You don't come into our forum disrupting CTE discussions EVER and we don't go into your threads talking about ghost ball, contact points, fractions, how math, geometry, and every force of nature has to be factored into a shot before pulling the trigger with a stroke.
DEAL?
Or maybe Mike could do it himself. Either way...ALL PROBLEMS SOLVED WITH CTE AND THE REST OF IT!
Sure they'd be coming there into the CTE forum. Would you want to take a walk on the wild side and go into THEIR designated forum for everything and anything else in the way of aiming systems they're talking about? I don't think so and I certainly wouldn't be going there nor anyone else who is involved with Pro1.It will never be solved.

As long as you're willing to have it moderated to keep the truly disruptive/negative members out. As has been said, there's only a small hardcore group of individuals that are at the core of the trouble.Would this idea work? It would still not be a place for CTE bashing.

And that is exactly why you would be kept OUT of there too.Mike, as you can see by other posts in this thread, the whole CTE thing is a very emotional issue for some people. IMO a sub forum wouldn’t work because when there’s that much vitriol on one side there will always be a reason for them to not follow whatever rules are established and we’re back to where we started.
Speaking just for myself, I’d have no problem with a CTE sub forum where folks could discuss the topic and sing kumbyah, as long as all aiming systems, to include CTE, could be discussed freely in the Aiming forum.
But I suspect that wouldn’t work because certain quarters can’t abide any discussion of CTE, anywhere, that isn’t laudatory.

Fixed it for you. You're welcome.But I suspect that wouldn’t work because certain quarters can’t abide any discussion of CTE, anywhere, that isn’t INFLAMMATORY.

Maybe, you might want to call it "The Scrotum".Can I get a “Balls have no edge” forum ?
You are speaking for yourself and your gang of merry men. You do know that but are trying to flip it.
Please illustrate where all other aiming systems have been pounced on and couldn't be discussed freely. What would your contribution be...SEE THE SHOT? (which it always is)
Fixed it for you. You're welcome.
You may have "zero point crossing" for that nonexistent spherical location where the appropriate one dimensional segment crosses the surface with no intervening space.Can I get a “Balls have no edge” forum ?
Would you be butt hurt if not allowed in? I think we're more like a baseball team and you/others want to say how stupid baseball is and we should switch over to a better game and way of doing it...cricket. Also the difference between football/rugby and how it should be played or which is the better way.I don't have a problem with practitioners "witnessing" at each other. (the Christian kind) There's a certain novelty to multiple outcomes for the same shot and perhaps there are truly important pivotal relationships to be discovered. What seems more likely though, is a CTE forum would become an elitist frat house.
Why do you even care? What does it mean in your life and how you approach the game? You do what you do and have always done based on your on beliefs and habits. If you want to lead somebody down the right path, explain in detail what you see, what you think about when aiming, position play, banking, the stroke. NOBODY is stopping you but yourself. Actually, I'd be interested.No, I’m not trying to flip anything.
Any reasonable person can read through the posts in this forum and easily tell which side is “excitable.”
And the thing about other aiming systems is that while they all have some level of merit, there is not a group of supporters insisting that any of them are perfectly objective snd without flaw.
So we can discuss other systems snd say “it gets you close” or “there needs to be this adjustment or that adjustment” without getting flamed. With CTE that is not so and any criticism results in this almost extreme religious backlash that leads to endless conflict.

I'd be annoyed that I couldn't get my .02 in directly but since you brought up baseball, I like to say team sports is for (place derogatory reference here) who can't bust a move by themselves. Other than that, real caps are all over the place here. I don't play people games but many friends and acquaintances mostly from pool in that bunchWould you be butt hurt if not allowed in?
