I agree with that.
However I use Notecaddy myself and this was the main reason I chose HM2 vs PT4.
Same time you can achieve similar results with custom stats of PT4. (custom stats are known even in PT3 if I remember correct).
In that perspective if Notecaddy should be banned PT4 should also. And if creating custom stats is the problem, who decides which stats should be allowed and which not?
In my view NoteCaddy allows the user to create his/her own stats in an easy way.
Now let's take 2 players which use different huds. One hud will be better than the other. So the player with a better hud will have theoretically an edge (if he knows how to make use of that). So everyone who supports prohibition of Notecaddy should support prohibition of advanced huds as well.
In my mind you should either ban all type of huds, or otherwise it doesn't make sense to ban one aspect of them.
It's like saying that HM2 should be banned but PT4 should not in my eyes.
And it is unfair a software which used to be legal, and I bought it bc I knew it is legal, now suddenly sb decides to be banned (and without refund).
Having that said, maybe some of the new features of NoteCaddy, such as pop ups with previously played hands, or timing tells... should not be allowed.
But if Stars prohibit NoteCaddy I m leaving Stars. Enough with Stars and its changes!!!
