Probably a fair statement. Kind of like whether a person wants to party 4 years in college and think he deserves a degree with failing grades or puts his/her nose to the grindstone and graduates with honors.
Yesterday there were some posts made by a certain few that were so over the top and out of bounds that it would have called for a multi-year BAN and YOU even referred to it with posts of your own. You knew it, I knew it, everybody knew it.
Nothing, absolutely nothing happened. I've come down with a heavy hand today as a backlash to certain other posters. Like the BAN I got back in December for 6 months for what should have been completely a non-ban I wouldn't be surprised to see it happen again because I'm not one of the "in boys" who sends emails to the owner or Wilson to befriend them for a free pass on disciplinary action.
Just a few days ago many of the posts I made were completely DELETED by someone overnight.
You misstate so much. Duckie's whole Challenge Thread was removed as where posts by others. If you think just because I had PMs with Wilson that we are friends you are entirely mistaken. The same goes for Mr. Howerton. Being civil with common respect is not being "friends".
YOU & other CTEers have done many, many things for which others have been Banned.
imHo, Mgt. would simply like the whole CTE thing to just go away. That is why it was sent into a sub forum.
The nearly 1/4 century 'war' to which I was sucked into about 6 years ago can be ended by Mr. Shuffett with a Simple Truthful Statement.
THEN... the partial aspects of it that might benefit some could be discussed without the crap.
THAT seems to NOT be what your side wants.
You do not want fair & equal treatment. You want Special Treatment for your side & you have posted such several times.
I & others have proffered several times for a thread or sub forum for the purpose of those wanting to learn how to use it...
but without the non-true assertions regarding it. Those were basically rejected by your side if not you specifically, but I think you did. You 'want" those non-true assertions. You "need" those non-true assertions.
Mgt. has prohibited the 'debate' of those assertions & has said that "it works for some & not others". So, it must be a 50/50 proposition as to whether or not it will work for anyone new to it. THAT is a rather telling statement regarding those assertions.
I wish I had Never heard those assertions regarding Mr. Shuffett's CTE.
One thing that I think you & I share is a Love for The Game. We should be able to discuss such & all related to it in an Honest Manner.
In case you have not noticed I have never really 'pushed' any other manner of aiming or aligning pool shots of which there are many...because... they ALL are subjective in nature & hence individuals will prefer one or some over others & be able to use one or some better than others. I am not the HAMB by totally random means until it just comes to one. I went through Ghost Ball, Fractional, The Light Reflection, Shadows, & Equal & Opposite, & TOI.
I was Intrigue & 'excited" when I heard it said the there was a complete totally objective aiming "system".
I complimented your recent statement that it should more appropriately be referred to as an alignment "method" with more focus on the balls than the pocket.
I'm running on & do not want to venture off per Mgt's. stance.
You are very correct about this. Who would not want something that gets them to play better? Hence, my former intrigue & 'excitement'. Who would use something that makes them play worse?
The issue of the 1/4 Century 'war' has NEVER been about the above. It has always been about the assertions made regarding it.
Please TRY to be Civil & Truthful should you choose to reply?
