I hate to see people use the carpet to clean the chalk off tips.
Just the other day I heard Donald Trump say "throw the son's a *****es out of the pool
room"...so my days of using the carpet to clean the chalk off tips while standing are over.
I wonder what those carpet chalkers do when there isn't any carpet.
For instance Table Steaks used to have hardwood floors.

Never bet on a dog with fleas....:angry:
...they scratch a lot...
I never saw this practice of wiping chalk off of a pool cue tip until I moved to California. (circa 2003) Still see it done almost daily.
The consequence of this is finally putting the cue tip into a fresh little puddle of beer, soda or coffee and immediately putting the shaft into the case. The next time the case us open feel very fortunate the smell of old leather stench isn't present. :wink:

Pc is such a b-otch!!
Well, I admit I have been doing this for more than 30 years in every pool room I have been to. Have seen many many people do the same and never heard a word from anyone about it.
I don't try to grind the tip into the carpet, just knock the dust off. I would never do that in someone's house, but in a commercial hall where you pay to play I
Don't really think it's a big deal. If someone ever said anything I
Would certainly quit the habit.
Thanks for the education. Dr S

Agreed for your reason and for respecting others' property.
Here's a way that offers an extra benefit:
Fold a washcloth in half and then thirds. It will fit in the top of your cue case. When closed, it secures your cues from damage and can be used to wipe off the tip when done playing.

I’m going to need a list of Billiard Etiquette or I may get in trouble.
I do wipe my cue tip on the floor at the local sports bar. I try to avoid the big stains and the gum. I would never do this at someone’s home or a at nice room. It’s sounds like the consensus of the group is that I should stop.
I once beat a player who was much better than I because I did not place the chalk facing up after each use. It drove him crazy. I tried to to comply with his request but after 40 years of doing it wrong I had a hard time changing gears.

Arghhh, cant can't stand ppl who put chalk upside down on the table.
Knock it off!
You put more chalk on the rails than you do the floor by rubbing your tip on it.
An old timer told me that he used to play in a room where the owner actually had squares of carpet tacked to the walls around the room for that specific reason. I thought that was a great idea.
I clean my tips and shafts with a damp paper towel and then a microfiber cloth before putting them back in my case.

When it comes to chalk, think like a pilot...
