So now we move on the thread to the next phase 2:=

The scenario is the youngster which is double rung it has a 2008 ring on one leg and a 2009 ring on the other, however the fancier now has an ETS fitted at the loft.

When he goes to his club to register his birds through the scanner he submits the 2008 ring number as he wishes to send this bird into the race, which just happens to be an old bird race, he's doing nothing wrong he submits the 2008 ring which qualifies for entry into this old bird race, after all it is "deemed the ring". that is entered and not the bird.These youngsters with old rings on will after a couple of races murder the opposition, they will not hang around the lib sites there out and gone on their way home. Its like the pensioner robbed of his cash outside a post office, he will most likely be catching the young villian up towards the 100yard mark, but then most probably with fright of being caught the young villian steps up a gear and maintains that speed because of his youthfulness, well its the same with our pigeons they cannot keep the speed with these younger birds that is why the sport had defined races for Old Birds and races for Young Birds so everyone was on a even keel.

Oh bye the way, the taped up ring, name & address rings are tolerated in shows but you have to either tape them over, so not to disclose the owners identity or you can now buy these clip over rings which do the same job, well the thought is this, if they are tolerated / allowed in the showing of pigeons then whats the difference with racing birds wearing them either clipped or taped whichever is the case the marking comittee are not allowed to interfere with them, they are only allowed to handle that bird and confirm the birds ring number which is visible. I told you this thread had many answers, interesting though! Oh! HAPPY DAYS (got me at it Joe 61).

prove to me I'm wrong then because up till now you haven't :-/

 

I've never said it was cheating, and I haven't given you the answer, all I've done is pointed out a loophole to go against the loophole you pointed out :-/

 

If you can quote me the rpra rule that tells me I'm wrong then I'll admit I'm wrong, after all it only took me a few minutes to find the rule that states "that if two rings they must be same loft number"

 

In my mind if that is a rule then they would have to be uncovered and checked to see if they were same loft number :)

If a young bird has two rings on its leg it is still a young bird fact. If it is breaking the rules to race young birds with old birds then you are breaking those's rules fact. Just because you have the true year of its birth covered up does not get away from the fact it is still a young bird. If you know it is a young bird and you know your breaking the rules by racing it as an old bird that is not bending the rules that is breaking them.

If you know it is a young bird and you cover up the fact it is a young bird by hiding its ring then you are cheating plain and simple. It does not need to be put into the rules that hiding the fact that you are breaking a rule makes it ok.

read the post naedoos the one about tampering cant quote you arule its a loophole bigger than the one you quote

 

oh happy days

 

;D ;D ;D

 

so what you're trying to tell me is there is/isn't  a rule that you can't quote about a basketing convener not being allowed to  uncover a ring number that you want to put up against an official rpra ruling???  Think I would take my chances at the rpra hearing joe ;)

 

thank goodness I don't have to fly under your rules :o  ;D ;D ;D

to take the tape or atempt to take the tape off would be deemed as tampering with a ring which is on the birds leg

we're goin round in circles joe cos you can't show me where it states that :-/

 

at least I quoted rule 96 for you so that must allow me to check the ring to ensure that it belongs to the same loft as the other ring 8)

Rule 70. (a) If any member of the Association shall

be guilty of any dishonourable conduct.

The word Dishonourable among other things means deceptive or fraudulent; disposed to cheat or defraud or deceive.

Covering up the true year of a young bird so it can be raced as an old bird is Deceptive and is covered by this rule.

Well done!!!

 

It's amazing how different things can be interpreted from one set of rules, must agree with you on this one though :)

Don't be foolish enough to think no one has the right to touch the ring that is taped up, in your rules, rule 96 states "Should a bird carry more than one ring, both rings must be registered to one loft number and must be from the country of origin" If I were your basket convener I would be entitled to check the ring taped up and not let it in the basket if it was a young bird.

 

Even if you insisted that it be allowed, it would be simple to get the remaining club members birds race marked while the bogus ring number was verified, and who knows it would maybe even be too late to get them verified before the transporter had to leave ;)

I cant see where you can visibly read the information of an ETS ring, by the human eye without the use of a electronic scanner? It could therefore be argued in a court of law, that this approved ring (ETS) does not reveal its information visibly so therefore what is the difference between an ETS ring and a ring that does not reveal its information because it is taped up or covered with a clip ring?

There is neither a rule that denotes the duties or citations of the role of basket comittee members, basket convenors or whatever fancy title emits your club / organisation which legally entitles you to carryout unlawful practices.Now this is where the club officials are starting to make things up to deny this fancier his right to enter his bird into a race which entries must bear an old ring, he fits the criteria and now you have others denying him this right.The only way this can be stopped is by the RPRA issueing yet another rule, once this has been done then and only then can you put a stop to ths practice being carried out, you may act then with the provision of the rule behind you.
