[James Z]

Updated list of the 14 changes that were partially or fully aimed at limiting pips to speed up the extermination of choppers & other defenders or pips players.
The work is far from complete & ITTF hereby pledges to work harder on behalf of booster supremacists. working on further limits on pips & anti rubbers.

List shows 15 items :- But item 5 is just an FYI as it did not pass

1. 1977 : Ban on long pips by limiting the maximum allowed length of long (any) pips to 2.00 mm
2. 1983 : More limits on slim (flex) pips by setting Maximum Allowed Aspect Ratio of pips to 1.3
3. 1983 : Initial two color rubbers rule (any 2 different colors)
4. 1985 : Added further restrictions on the 2 color by limiting rubbers only to 2 colors (Red & Black)
5. Around 1990-1995 : Failed attempt by Swedish Association > two side of a racket must have idenltical rubbers
6. 1995 : Repeal of Speed glue ban (within months of implementation)
7. 1998 : Durban Regulation to reduce the maximum allowed Aspect Ratio of pips from 1.3 to current 1.1
8. 2000 : Ball size increase from 38 mm to 40 mm
9. 2004 :Regulation to reduce maximum allowed pip distribution density from 50 to current 30 pips per sq.cm
10. 2008 : FPB (Frictionless pips ban) by setting minimun allowed pip friction (COF) to be at least 0.5
11. 2008 : Fake ban on boosters to fool the IOC
12. 2014 : 40+ ball change from celluloid to plastic
13. 2022 : Total official ban on 40 celluloid balls
14. 2024 : Rule change proposal rejection for women’s equality
15. 2024 : Increased maximum allowed rubber thickness from 4.00 mm to 4.05 mm to protect illegal (potentially criminal) boosting (even though rule 2.4.7 from 2008 clearly says spein gluing & boosting are not approved)

Even the most experienced players are aware of this level of oppression of pips / anti players because ITTF constantly uses disinformation campaigns to hide these rule & regulation changes

Just amazing
