Topic: 2 Quick Points

so where is the concrete proof that you know who it is?

or are you just guessing?

Given the evidence that Riggers has very impressively collated i think its clear that even Stevie Wonder could work out who 412-414 is!!

Literally ROTFLMFAO Mark! Quality.

yes LMAO =] hahahaha

and you can't be that sure else you wouldn't be frightened of saying a name. or is it the slight chance you could be wrong? lol

Hopefully we won't get 412-414 coming out with constant drivel on here anymore so are you trying to take over where he left off Danny?

Im sorry Riggers - I thought you werent into public witch hunts as it does no good?

Pot...kettle....black perhaps?

412-414's entitled to his opinion isnt he?

You trying to embarasss him on a public forum for your own gratification...very mature.

exactly.. it was only recently you said "who cares" then spent a considerable amount of time trying to work out who he is to embarress him.

and the funny thing is, you have totally got the wrong name in your head and embarressing yourself.

and now you are saying i am carrying on for him. but you said recently, you wouldnt have a problem with what he said if you knew who he was. well you know who i am, i'm Danny.

And I think you are more of a child than I am sometimes. This thread shows that.

Grow up!

Everybody is entitled to speak on this forum, whether they are known or anonymous. That is what a forum is for. And if somebody says something out of turn, it gets automatically deleted by an admin.

So stop worrying your pretty little head over who an anonymous poster is. It's a forum. Forum's were originally created for people to anonymously put their views and questions and answers across.

If you don't like it, you are in the wrong place.

Going on a witch hunt to find out who somebody who wants to remain anonymous is very low.

I still say the scots are tight!

I wasn't on a witch hunt I merely said I believed I knew who he was. HIS response (if you read back in this thread) was to invite me to name him. I didn't name him but instead I just thought I'd have some fun. That's another thing that forums are for too you know!

As far as 'everyone is entitled to their views' and anonymous posting is ok, of course I agree with that to a large extent. I'm just sick of constant provocative comments, some of which are highly personal and many of which are actually damaging the game we are trying hard to raise to a new level.

There has been a lot of dis-quiet about the BPPPA and main 9 ball tour this year and I really do empathise and understand why but thankfully the majority of us are really just wanting to play pool and are now starting to see light at the end of the tunnel. That's why I believe the dissent on here has turned into hope of late which is very encouraging. That's why I was particularly disappointed with the negative tone of the opening remark to this thread.


We simply can't allow these views to drag us down now of all times when we have a big opportunity to take this game forward. For that reason I'm going to publish more details about the discussions we are having with the BPPPA and our plans for the tour next season. This should be issued tonight/tomorrow hopefully.

There were not any personal comments on this thread at all.

Yours however were directed at a specific pro-9 member, therefore yours were personal. Slightly hypocritical dont you think?

Perhaps you just like your own jokes a bit too much? I personally dont find them that funny at all - just childish.

who is it

tell us riggers

for all those sticking up for 412 whatever remember he started this thread as a way of directly attacking riggers and the rest of the BPPPA who have already said things are in hand

we keep going through this negativity over and over cause of people like 412 and then he tries to stay anominous

if i started attacking people on this site there are people who know who i am who can come and speak to me

maybe next time i have an opinion i will just start a new account and say what i want

Hetty Wainthrope Rigvestigates?

Plenty of people have accused the BPPPA of carrot dangling.

And the SAPPA/BPPPA questions is very valid.

Finding out I know who 412 was quite shoking but not suprising. This man is someone who is very close to me and who has always got my back covered, for which I am always grateful and he knows that. I suppose one of the reasons he didn't respond to my post. Regardless of what anyone says, I do personally have a lot of time for him. I will make no further comments on 412 as a person.

With regard to anonymous posting and berrating.............

This forum is a very powerful tool. People (including 412) sometimes take this power for granted. We are at a critical stage in the future of our sport. There are some people who moan and carry on and there are others that wish to do something about it. When you google UK pool, all most always, Pro9 comes close (if not always) at the top. If you are a potential sponsor, this forum will be the first thing you will read. Now if I read some of the things on here and I had $100,000 to put into a UK tour....I would run a mile. No one is above criticism and recently there has been reason to criticise the way things are being handled. There are simply good and bad ways of expressing your displeasure and explaining your possible solutions. BOTH good and bad ways have been posted on here. Hiding behind a screen name allows things to be said without proper justification. You can't see the depth of experience from which the comment is made. I don't always agree with what Dazzler says but he is up front about it and clearly has more experience in the sport than ANY of us. Point is, no hiding and clearly a man who needs to be listned to (even if he is ugly).

Some will disagree but I personally think anonymous posting shouldn't be allowed. What have you got to hide? Just because this is the norm across the globe doesn't make it right. I would like to know who I am talking to and understand if his comments are justifiable or simply rantings from a person just looking to get his 5 mins of fame...or doesn't actually have anything to do with the sport. If the latter....why would I even care what you think? Someone looking in however could take a different view. This is my stance and I will stand by it.

Lots and lots of work has been done in the sidelines over the last few weeks, the principle reason for this is Lee Rigby. He has gone out of his way to try and address these concerns over the tour and the future looks A LOT brighter as a direct result of his input. Regardless of what has been said here today, this man deserves some recognition for the amount of effort he has dedicated to sorting things out (those that know, will know). Afterall, all any of us want is a tour with proper prize money, well organised and goals and incentives for doing well. This is what we are attempting to achieve, we are nearly there. The players should all GET BEHIND the new structure and support it with every last drop of energy. If it fails, then it fails. We can't say we haven't tried. One thing is for sure....we will try.

I love this sport and I ain't going anywhere yet. Wait for the announcement and as OZ said, the players will decide.

I am pretty excited about what's on it's way. Can't wait to find out (this isnt me being sarcastic btw).

Well if you're on the email distribution list for tournament flyers you'll find out more just as soon as I've cut my lawns. If I'd have known I was going to take on all this extra work I'd have bought a house without grass!

i am on the email list... and you can get a powder which kills it all... or you can buy a goat and tie it up.
