  1. World Team Table Tennis Championships 2018

    People sometimes also don't combine men and women when making such statements. It could just be that kind of error.
  2. World Team Table Tennis Championships 2018

    Not China, Ma Long.
  3. World Team Table Tennis Championships 2018

    Germany will soon follow China and ban foreigners from playing in their leagues to prevent them from beating Germans - just kidding, congrats on great play, Omar!
  4. Top 5 non-Chinese players against the 2018 WTTTC Team China, who would you pick?

    The win over Timo was in a Champions league match. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DULKr1xW5eE
  5. Top 5 non-Chinese players against the 2018 WTTTC Team China, who would you pick?

    He beat Xu Xin after the Olympics. How many players have beaten Xu Xin in their entire careers? In his career, he has wins over Xu Xin, Mizutani, Samsonov, Niwa, Harimoto, Chuang Chuan Yuan, and Tim Boll. It's the losses that are puzzling, but when it comes to wins, he has them.
  6. Top 5 non-Chinese players against the 2018 WTTTC Team China, who would you pick?

    There is a guy who zeio knows who posts on mytt as jackwong23. The guy posts on HK forums and is critical of HK players in general. He has a specific dislike for WCT as the top HK player and started the WCT is overrated meme because he argued that WCT was higher ranked than players he couldn't...

  8. Does Equipment Matter: Pro vs. Pro

    The story is a bit longer than that and has to do with other internet trolls not just Agenthex. But it will take me time to find. He is likely busier now but in general trolls make it hard to function. Some people trivialize this stuff but if they had a stake in creating a thriving forum...
  9. Does Equipment Matter: Pro vs. Pro

    Maybe the reason he hasn't done anything to warrant being banned in your opinion is that a lot of his stuff that was intended to replicate what he did at mytt and other forums was moderated? I have seen people who some members would like to hear from not post on forums because they didn't like...
  10. Does Equipment Matter: Pro vs. Pro

    AgentHex argued that there was no reason to believe that the complaints about the cellulose acetate plastic balls being less consistent and durable than celluloid and other plastic balls. That it was mostly inferior players that believed this and continued to argue this. I won't comment on...
  11. The Psychology of an Internet Troll

    Yeah but since you can avoid ****ed up assholes in everyday life or just be kept away from them by social barriers and authority figures that do not often exist on the internet, your statement is not as profound as you think it is. In fact, one of the things I suapect is that you wouldn't speak...
  12. Does Equipment Matter: Pro vs. Pro

    Not just that, but it shows how dishonest his selective use of the word 'doctoring' is. The reasons why there were no infractions for equipment back then (in addition to likely very poor monitoring and wealth by today's standards) is that very little was against the rules. It's just another...
  13. Does Equipment Matter: Pro vs. Pro

    To be honest the single person who has done the most to make me dislike hardbat ( and he has thankfully been largely ineffective since I still watch it like any other good TT when it is played well between two modern players) is berndtmann.
  14. Does Equipment Matter: Pro vs. Pro

    I am trying to say that you probably know next to nothing about what players at the highest level did or did not do with their equipment. And that most players do not "doctor" their equipment even today if they didn't doctor it in yester years. The fact that Dick Miles wanted his equipment...
  15. Does Equipment Matter: Pro vs. Pro

    The choice of language and your level of play misses the point. You mean that people would just pick up and use the first blade they ever tried? They never tested different equipment to see what the pros and cons were? That's not doctoring, that's stupid. Unless there was an established...
  16. Tenergy05 issues

    Every rubber that has mild tuning, even if original, plays slightly worse over time, with 1 week to 2 months of being taken out of the package and used, depending on how you take care of it and your frequency of play. Different players are sensitive to it to different degrees. Since my game...
  17. Does Equipment Matter: Pro vs. Pro

    The funny thing is that even hard batters will never claim that everyone used the same hardbat equipment. People likely messed around with things to the same degree that they do now, only that in an earlier time with less choice for all the reasons tied to modern wealth and technology, they...
  18. World Team Table Tennis Championships 2018

    He has always had problems with injuries. He was a bigtime prodigy as a kid and one of the youngest French national champions ever, which if you know the French TT landscape is a huge achievement.
  19. Does Equipment Matter: Pro vs. Pro

    Mytt has let him back as the owner has forgiven Bmann for insulting him. So I suspect Bmann is now ready to push the envelope here since he now has another forum to play around on should he get banned here.
