I ask because everyone I tend to play with (outside of a pool hall) thinks that if they scratch, you have to put the ball in the kitchen. I don't know why I can't convince people of that otherwise, but it kind of ruins the game when you can scratch on purpose in order to screw up your opponent's shot.

I've heard this justified as a little-table bar rule because getting ball in hand on a bar box makes it "too easy" to run the table. Which is pretty dumb. Not as dumb as insisting on shooting out of the kitchen on a full-sized table though.
