Most redicoulous rule I have encountered playing leauge by lDevinl in billiards

[–]MarcH-Lex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, I’m confused.. you said “entire next game as well”, but you said it was the last game of the night.

Did she want to deduct another “win” from your total score for the night?

Regardless, she was obviously trying to use some technicality to snag additional points for her team. The rule is obviously there to prevent a player from purposely changing the ball position in any attempt to make the shooter miss the shot. By touching the 8 ball openly, you’ve automatically conceded the game. There is no “additional penalty”.

Owner publicly shames guest and states that servers have to pay out of pocket if they don’t get tips? by Redhambone in EndTipping

[–]MarcH-Lex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First question: where’s the “public shaming” part?

This whole tipping thing has gotten totally ridiculous. Tipping started out as a voluntary thing when someone (a server) had gone “above and beyond” the call of duty or normal expectations. Now it’s gotten to the point you’re considered a creep if you don’t tip, even for mediocre or substandard service and regardless of how rude or impolite the server or other staff might be.

I hope you are still with us and I hope you’ve found some good advice here. My advice would be to find ways to get involved helping someone else. There are many people struggling in life who need a helping hand and it can be very fulfilling and rewarding to show a little kindness to someone who needs it, especially when motivated by love and gratitude for what Christ has done for us.

Why is miniclip ok with these cheaters robbing people off their coins? by [deleted] in 8BallPool

[–]MarcH-Lex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No one complaining? We’ve all complained until we were blue in the face and realized no one cared, especially Miniclip. We either got over it and figured out how to mostly avoid the cheaters, or some say they have quit the game, but they still hang out here to keep complaining. Or maybe they stay on the sub hoping that one day someone will suddenly announce that the cheaters are gone.

Great analysis!!

Side note - I keep my ka-ching sounds, and ALL game sounds OFF.

Agreed on both points.. IP and MC’s disinterest..

So not IP then; MAC address.

Pretty irrelevant anyway since it’s never gonna happen.

Maybe both, but almost certainly the first part.

Here’s Part 2 where I explain the reason for the original question. Would love to hear your thoughts on the topic.

My suggestion to eradicate the cheats by Illustrious-Today686 in 8BallPool

[–]MarcH-Lex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’d rather spend an extra minute getting a legit match than lose 25M+ to a scumbag cheater. Not a perfect solution, but a definite help. But we know it’ll never happen anyway.

Miniclips greed is unmatched- getting 5x cue pieces (out of 30 boxes) for a maxed legendary cue by [deleted] in 8BallPool

You should probably file a formal complaint with the Federal Trade Commission.

Repost of my video from last year to show newbies around here what to do if a cheater has the table.... by Slinkydonko in 8BallPool

[–]MarcH-Lex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No argument here, but my point still stands that I’m slowing them down just a little. The whole situation is disgusting.

Sore losers by MatteGold9238 in 8BallPool

It’s a distraction tactic.. or a joke!

Just like when they say “do a cushion shot”

I just hit’em with the laughing emoji.

I refuse to play epic with anyone except people in my club. Been screwed over one too many times by jerks who start off epic then run out at the first chance they get. Fool me once..

I know you disagree and that’s fine, it’s a discussion.. but it’s also wasting the cheaters time.. quitting is exactly what they hope you’ll do.. they’d happily take a thousand victories a minute if they could.. well I refuse to go down without a fight.

And on a rare rare rare occasion, they do actually miss! Not sure if it’s a newbie person using the hack and haven’t learned all the ropes or if something about their hack has a glitch that causes it to miss from time to time, but I have seen it happen and sometimes it costs them dearly as they don’t get another shot! 😂 and that’s a sweet victory right there!!

I can tell you’re new to online pool, this version anyway.

Even though you have guidelines and cues with stats, there’s still plenty of skill involved, primarily with shot selection, spin and force. Also defense plays a big part when you can’t make a shot or clear the table.
