they need to ban that excessive screaming. it is distractive and unfair to the other players.

and it is annoying as hell for the fans.

this has been allowed to go on for way too long now in tennis.

I think it's a tactic they use to intimidate the opponents. Both Shara and Aza are on it. Monica was genuine or so I'd like to believe. And she was the only person in the 90s who's screaming was noticeable. Speaks volume about this era.

traffic (viewership/readership) is picking up some steam slowly and surely and a big reason for that is our CETSVids Global Tennis Video Center.


rest of the activity is also moving in the right direction. we continue to build, create, and add content.

we knew well in advance that this journey would be perilous and fraught with obstacles.

so we are well prepared for the road ahead.


also we have a place that we can call home. that was the one of the objectives and we achieved that.


we invite all those who pass this way to do the same. make Camelot one of your regular stops.

also feel free to call it home as it really is home.

at least here you will be listened to, attended to, and cared for. here you can do anything and post anywhere and as often as you wish. there are zero rules here and zero guidelines. its the wild wild west. post away and have fun.


call it home or one of your homes and be proud of it. this is going to be a very cool place in time.

agreed. it is icy cool fo sho.

I like it but I don't like the price tag. I bet it is around $800.00

It's now $600 + tax in Canada. So I pay either that or get a two year long contract. I may  want to go for the latter. I really like HTC One too so that's also another option with the same deal. However this one is less pricey.

I noticed Siddy is now posting on TF. Did he not complain about that forum when we were there. Oh well...not that there's anything wrong with it, you know, it's a free world after all, but I don't remember an incident here where we treated him wrong or deleted his posts.

they not only try to intimidate their opponents with their off the charts screaming, they also try to throw their games off.

I mean I would be distracted as hell if I was playing against somebody who was screaming like that.

you also want to be able the hear the ball being struck.

emma shortly you will have 10,000 views.

 ;D ;D ;D ;D

Yep. Over 1000 posts and 10,000 views, we will take it. ;D

But you, me, TT and Cets are the most active ones here and basically running the show. Nikki gets some credit too. :)

We need 10 to 15 regular and active posters.

Totally agree. How disgraceful and desperate. I was honestly getting a headache so I had to turn the volume really down. Typically I like my volume high when I watch a tennis match as I'd like to hear the sound of the balls, but no luck with the ladies when they scream so much as soon as they hit the ball.

I have not been around much during the course of the day. I have not had the time or the inclination to check around or look around.


by TF, do you mean tennis frontier?


I was the one who brought him to that forum and I have always treated him with kindness.

in fact, being a great defender of other's rights that I claim to be, I left tennis frontier because I thought they were deleting sid's and nekro's posts. I never go back so I don't who else got their posts deleted.

again I think I should have just let Baron handle it instead of making a rash decision.

and now in retrospect I made a rash decision for nothing: both nekro and sid are not bright enough to know and understand how kind I had been to them over the years.

sid told me in no uncertain terms to "stick this forum and shove it".

I need to find that PM and post it here so he is ashamed of what he said to me if he reads it.


nekro talked a big game evidently. he was after me for 2 long years to create our own forum. so we finally create one and I ask him to come here and say hello to you.


he ran like a worthless coward instead. there is nothing that I did not do for him. I was kind to him at the castle at MTF and I was kind to him tennis4you.


its the same with a lot of these people emma. they are bogus and they are fickle. and we can only find that over time.

just look at javi. he claims he has no time but he is posting away at plenty of places. he goes around asking people to play online games with him and stuff.

the fact of the matter is that when the time came to really show a little bit of support or reciprocity, they ran like cowards.

well I can't use cowards so they can go where ever the hell they please.


I guess I was born different and raised different. I would help even an enemy if he asked for help.



anyway we like the impossible odds. a cool place that works for the few of us will be that much more meaningful. there will be plenty of pride and satisfaction knowing that we created something cool and magical from absolutely nothing.

that is most assuredly going to happen. there is absolutely no question in my mind about it.


there would be no spring if there were no winter.

we have to endure the infancy phase. in the mean time, we kick back, relax, and continue to build, create, and add engaging content as much as possible.


it is a lot of fun creating and adding content. this way we get to enjoy all the phases.

any fool can go to a forum like MTF or tennis warehouse and start posting.


here we get to create stuff and have a say so in so many things also. just look at the freedom here. people can have their own boards and pursue their own ideas and stuff.


I rather relish the challenges here. it is far more fun this way.


by the end of 2015 we should have over 300 people here. I would venture to guess that at least 20 of them will post on somewhat regular basis.

and quite frankly that is all we need.


I can see that happening but we do have some work to do in order to make that happen.

I think we have made a fantastic start to our journey.

Yes, he's posting on Tennis Frontier.

herc, it does seem like as if you made a rash decision back then but then again, you did what felt right to you at that time. That's why I never regret anything since I had no other or better knowledge at that time of the decision. Looking back it's easy to think that. Of course wise people will tell you to sleep on it and cool off but some times, it's not that easy or simple but we can always learn to deal with situations better. Besides, tell me, who is flawless? No one. Then why judge. Anyway, I personally wouldn't have survived TF anyway since I wasn't going to get attached to it. I have no regrets. 

That's an awful thing to say however. I don't know how posters can say such things and wish such things. This is hard work, this forum and we are trying our best so if anything they could have been supportive. Good things never come easy.

Anyway, I don't think Nekro or Javi or freaky or Siddy has any genuine interest in this forum anyway.

you know we offered these people something nobody ever has on these forums:

we offered them kindness, honest to goodness friendship, and thoughtfulness. and we built a place and the very first thing we did was open our arms and our doors to these people.

they did not even have the guts to show even an ounce of support.


no worries. at least we know of their true colors.


who really needs such people when you have the kind of people we have: we have you, laurice, the truth, caroline, sara, embla, gail, maria, general masterclass, general CETSVids, general tee, general greenteam and so many others.


we have bright future because we are starting out with the people of highest possible character.

Watching Raonic/Dimitrov. Good match this one. Dimi a set up 6-3. I don't see Raonic giving up any time soon.

Come to think of it, I am glad that Andy is playing an experienced player at this stage because he'll need a break after this should he win and his 4th round match will give him that. So this match should prepare him for the qtr final match - again, assuming he'll advance in both cases. Playing Lopez at this point is very good. If he's sleeping then he needs to wake up but if he's physically not fit enough, that will be tested today.
