I do not agree at all, I'm an amateur player playing in official leagues and tournaments, even if they are low ranked.It adds some stakes to play for points to win or loose, even as an amateur, if there's not any stake, I don't see why I should train 2 times a week. Of course I'm not gonna make a living from TT. But some of my mates decades ago did make some money with it without playing in the pro leagues: by being offered a job, inducements, and so on... There are clearly semi-pros and it's the vast majority how what you name pros here, some graduated coaches from La Romagne or Les Loups d'Angers work in a 9 to 5 job while dedicating their night to an entrepreneur-coach way of making money by training youth in many different clubs between those 2 pro A teams.Its just common sense. People think ITTF (or politicians that you voted in) are godlike.
Everything is by vote, so if you don't like the result of the vote - you should ask questions to your national representative.
That is hows think work in a democratic organization.
Having said that, I think ITTF has too many rights on the playing of TT on the fundamental levels.
Table tennis should be in 2 parts - 1 is professional, the other is amateur.
ITTF and its habit of rule changes can go on the professional part, while amateur can have some that follows the pros, while the others follows FUN.
I play quite a few other sports other than table tennis, take basketball for example - we have our own rules, and we don't care what FIBA (or NBA) has in the rule book.

Who is the 60% that will ban, please list them and provide proofROTFL Totally wrong
I estimate about 60% may vote to van but that is not close enough.
I have a geezer pass for camping. I get geezer discounts. Geezer is just an old British term for old man. I am a geezer.You talking about “offensive” words.
you have no idea how many people you can offend with one post…😁
You called a number, so now back it with facts.So you think any booster supremacist in their right mind will openly admit to being a pips / anti hater ?
don't come back, no one will miss you<yawn>
Regardless of how many different ways I try to explain to you, you will keep posting the same nonsense & kissing ITTF's behind no matter what & you live in an ITTfF utopia
It is not possible to hold a rational conversation with you.
I am not going to waste my time with you.
Good bye.
I am not self-proclaimed. I have been inducted into the IFPS Hall of Fame for my yeas of work in modeling, simulation and test and hydraulic servo control in general and years of articles in engineering magazines. I can show a video as proof. I have an award.Igor is lead engineer assisted by Nobel Laureate motion control engineer & self proclaimed Billionaire brokenBall for proposing how minimum friction limits can be further increased. This would ensure that old farts will be eliminated from the sport.
So what you are saying is that billions of these up & coming players (juniors) were traumatized by TSP P1 Curl but were not at all effected by Yasaka Phantom 007 or Double Fish 1615 etc which remain on ITTF LARC to this day.
Oh wait a minute I know , they were traumatized by Feint Long Classic
Now I underatand . I feel so stupid & ashamed that I wasted my time for 25 years.
Thanks for opening my eyes
