Neptune, going into details of your post would take a loong time but let me just say that adaptions to the rules such as the ones that we experience in tabletennis currently happen in every sport and all the time to control the development. Until just a few years ago, tabletennis (similar to the world finance business) has experienced little regulation with the results that you're surely aware of.
In a sport like tabletennis where the material of each player plays such a vital role finding (and enforcing) rules that a) keep the sport "steady" and b) allow individuality of each player is a very difficult path that the regulating body has to go through. The creation of such rules within the special, aforementioned characteristics of the sport after the many years of deregulation leads sadly to players that don't seem to bother about the new rules and find weak spots (read: they cheat) in order to keep up. There may be seemingly endless ways for those without morals to cheat but is the lack of a 100% enforcement of the rules and the frustration of players a reason for not implementing (and therefore subsequently hindering the development of the sport) them?
I used to be frustrated by the many players (usually low level amateurs) that don't seem to care about rules but found a simple solution: I either don't play against/with them and I don't bother about them. I'm also more determined than ever to beat them solely with my playing abilities. And if I loose, so what? I got some angry looks from the folks in my club after my announcement that I'm not going to play in my team if the other guy doesn't stop using the illegal pimples but again, I don't care. I do care about morals though. If I keep them up then there's nothing to complain about (except if I play bad).
@ Adham: the only question that I have to you is why it took so long to take countermeasures against speed glue as you've mentioned that it has been in use for more than 20 years. Wasn't the outcome foreseeable (sooner or later)?

TSC, I'm sorry, but I don't understand your comments. You are talking about "usually low level amateurs". Why are you doing that? Are you a profi playing against those low level amateurs that are now playing soooo high with their frictionless long pimples? So why are you calling frictionless long pimples players "low level amateurs"? People like you are the reason for this ban.
Also you are talking about moral. PLEASE TELL ME WHERE YOUR MORAL IS!?
I couldn't believe what you wrote in another threat:

"Diese Material-Nazis (Lies: Spieler) kotzen mich echt an".
Sorry TSC, but I cannot take you as a competent person (though your English is better than mine).
