    when the ball rolls though the oil it acts as a sponge and sucks up the oil based on the capillary effect.

    regarding how often to bath your ball, depending on how well you clean it between shots, and after each session this will vary. personally i do it monthly or sooner if i notice a drop off in reaction.
    that was just a side question. the main question was often people gave their balls a bath :/

    Or just read the thread that was already started on the topic of how often. But anyway, I started doing them 50-75 games. Now it seems as the games pile up they need it more often. Given the high number of games on mine, I usually end up doing them once a week.

    Let's do a example:

    Topic title:
    How often do you put air in your tires?

    Body of post:

    "The other night I was putting air in my tires an I was wondering how the brake fluid worked the brakes. I was also curious how the fluid got pumped down the lines."


    Now when people read that, what do you think they are to going reply to?

    Most people will read that wonder why you titled it about air, then write about how brake fluid is pumped. Then they will reply about how the fluid is pumped.


    The point is, your sending a confusing message about what your post is mainly asking about.

    So you're not a youngster, no longer in high school yet seem to have a problem with proper composition. I'm not trying to be mean but given some of your replies on threads and inability to incorporate what people have suggested into your game leads me to a conclusion. Whether or not it's a fair conclusion, I do not know. Composition, comprehension and retention of written information is a weakness. It could also be part of what has led some people here to think you're just being a jerk on purpose when in actuality you just don't interpret what was said to you correctly, retain it properly and then answer in a manner that comes across as intended.
    Everybody has flaws. Knowing and understanding their flaws helps to communicate with them in a way they can understand easier.
