I'll admit I'm a newbie here. Also a relative newbie to the sport (game?), even though I've played on and off for years, I have only in the last year become a little more serious about learning how to Play Well, and have joined leagues.
I have seen some recent posts lamenting some of the threads covering the same old ground over and over, with reactions to snarky responses. (I've seen the same issue on car-related forums).
So I did some poking around here, including "about us" pages. It's hard to discern what the objective of this site is, and in particular, what the forum objective is. The stated objective seems to be to promote and discuss All Things Pool, so as far as I can see, that runs the gamut from the green beginner all the way up to the professional, even to the top of the pointy end of the Professionals. So, there's an extremely deep and wide audience.
So, yes, some of the posts are inane and cover ground covered ad nauseam. And some are aimed at the top pros which have a limited appeal to me, personally. Is this site really for such a largely diverse audience? And if so, is it that difficult to gear responses to this fact?
