Honestly, we cannot ban additives on TC. I have huge objections to that.
My whole proposal of a ban was a) for oil based, and;
b) not if anyone had strong objections
Anyhow, it sounds like the general consensus is that everyone is happy to ban oil based additives.
I suggest we just have a gentlemans agreement. We dont need to police it.
If anybody wants to 'cheat' and use additive when they've agreed not to, I cant see it happening but if anyone did continue to use the stuff then its quite morally low and not beneficial to the club. Let them do it if they clearly feel that strongly they have to use additive. But none-the-less, the fact that everyone else isnt using additive would mean the carpet should still benefit and hopefully return to normal.
I dont even think anyone would have much of an advantage by using additive when others arent. Like eveyone says, we've all tried it/ regularly go without anyway and so it shouldnt make a great deal of difference.
Also, happy to limit additives to brands that Shane has proposed.
I gotta admit i havent heard of one of them - but I'm sure it'll be cool.
I still have a lot of CS left - it doesnt last long anyway but if we all still have some left we could either set a date for a perm ban on oil additives (so gives people a chance to finish off their current supplies) or we just save the oil additives for other venues - i know i could probably use mine somewhere else (like maybe chippenham next year) - not sure if this applies to everyone though?
