Can i just set the record straight? It is the object of the game to pot the 9ball, and if that means a combo (which is legal) then so be it. I used to play this game a while back and have just started out again and i cant believe the number of players calling me rude names because i played a combo shot (whether this be after a foul or not) Your dont see Alex Pagulayan or Daryl Peach asking before a world championship game if they would like bend the rules and have no combos, so why do it on here? If your playing snooker, and someone snookers you, is it therefore time to call them every name under the sun? obv not as it is part of the game... ...So just for future reference, anyone who plays me, expect me to play proper 9ball and sorry for the rant, i just get sick of people being abusive with me for the playing the game correctly

9ball rules?
I have to agree with you here. I have no problems with people comboing or 3 fouling for that matter and I don't see why people say "You cheat" or other more insulting things along those lines when there are clearly no rules saying you can't do such a thing! I find it even funnier in
snooker
when people insult me for snookering them :p I tend to play more defensive and tactically than aggressive shot play (I enjoy this part of the game more) yet people aytomatically think that you shouldn't.
The abuse is the main reason I do combo, watching people trying so hard to insult you is amusing :)
Yea i agree, this is one of the reason's i dont play 9ball, about 90% of the players higher than 300 will go crazy at you if you combo after a foul, its quite sad really but it will never change ;)
i personally dont see any wrong doing in 9ball combo either. im real life its a sign of skill, not a sign of disrespect. some people just need to take a chill pill when that happens :p

Hit the nail on the head there. But points mean so much to some people, it's as if FOD is their full time job :O Tip: Combo after every single foul, it can do wonders ~(i.e. you won't need Youtube for any funny videos :D)
Paralyzed...you never cease to amuse me and make me smile. I don't play 9-ball much (er...er, okay...ever) but I am familiar with the game and even in 8-ball people call you names when you "fluke" on a few shots. Uhhhh...sometimes it is UNINTENTIONAL people and it is just part of the GAME...so get over yourselves and get a life other than on FOD for goodness' sakes lol! Heehee...sometimes it IS intentional, but OH well.:p I don't have the skill to fluke every shot, or even MAKE every shot, even the easy ones :| Seriously, this topic just happened to make my day a little more humorous. Thanks guys! :p ~LittleEarthAngel~
