People show your support and try to persuade the owner of this site to make a rule on us 8 ball to stop these cheating idiots. If they are snookered and they pot your ball on purpose there should be a rule against this. Please show your support on encouraging a 3 foul lose frame rule, just like in 9 ball.

Just cleaned it up for you a bit pal.

Should also be in game queries...

And I ain't a cheating idiot I was just using the rules to my advantage.

Oh and I only fouled twice in a row.

no more than twice fs

Get over it would ye its only a game

would u like it if it happen 2 u nooo its just bs man

I wouldnt care tbh haha

Rules are rules they wouldnt be much use if they changed all the time because someone didnt like them. Overall the rules are good enough in 8us if you don't like it change your style, if you don't like that your in the wrong game

but not right if they snookerd should go for it instead being a cheating idiot

Awww musha

I would strongly suggest that people stop abbreviating swear words (like the use of 'BS') and other terms that have been used to put people down.

Redalert124, welcome to the forums but please show respect to those already on the forum, and please take a moment to read the forum rules (i.e about the abbreviations) -> http://www.funkypool.com/viewPostingRules.do

As far as the current rules are concerned for 8 Ball UK and 8 Ball US, players may foul as many times as they like. Being a computer game, there is no way a computer can determine if someone deleberatley fouled or not.

For the mean time, I suggest that you practice your snooker shots (as I do when im just in the chat room waiting for a tournament) and try and work on that skill, or play 9 ball, Straight or Killer.

EDIT: You have me confused now, you made this thread three months ago asking for the reverse happen to 9 ball -> http://www.funkypool.com/thread/16823/the-3-foul-rule-on-9-ball-should-be-scraped-who-agrees/2

BS = Business Studies, Tyler

And people have used foul on purpose against me in 8ball US and 8ball UK, who's to say that you can't do the same in the tables were turned.

Thing is: read the rules and use them to your own advantage to try to win the game.

It may not be deemed fair by someone else but rules are rules. Someone on snooker yesterday got annoyed because I kept rolling up instead of allowing him to clear. In my opinion, nothing wrong with rolling up but the annoying thing is, he moaned and then did the same thing after saying my skill was very limited. I have hardly played snooker, so don't know the tricks and stuff, he was a pro.

But you need to just calm down, enjoy the game and try to beat the opponent. If you don't like their tactics, don't play them, if you are in a tournament, the objection is to win (even if that does entail of sly tactics)
