The ban should not be reconsidered. New stronger bans should follow, because too many players treat their rubbers.

Is seems that you misunderstood something here:
Players with frictionless long pimples havn't treated their rubbers at all in the past years. Why should they? These pimples were legal for many years! But now suddenly these pimples are forbidden

and these players are punished for having used legal ITTF rubbers. Its same like forbidding antitops or short pimples. You can't compare this with the forbiddance of speed glueing or other after-treatment. Now a WHOLE own unique style of rubbers is suddenly not legal anymore for no reason. We have trained with these pimples for many years and adapted a style which is effective for these pimples. Now we can start from scratch again! Certain things can't be done at all with the "normal" pimples, e.g. blocks at the table. I have spent hundreds of Euros for testing other pimples, but I havn't found anything which I could play. I have totally fucked up my game with all the testing. I am a low level amateur and just want to play a little bit in my local level league and have some fun with my team.
I have never played illegal rubbers and never ever treated my rubbers! But now it seems that I am forced to buy illegal material...really sad
This is just not fair. I just want to play table-tennis with my type of rubber that I've played for many years. I think that I have the same rights as other players who want to play with their antitops, short pimples, long pimples with friction, inbound pimples...
That whole thing can't be true
