Dist. Pts

Have been playing bridge on and off for 40 years (all duplicate) Play a
very conservative STD. American system.

Anyway, have always played using distributional pts. in my bids, i.e.
singleton added to my 11 hcp's would allow me to open a suit. Always worked
out .

Now I am getting blasted on OKB (I am a 10 yr. member) that I should only
count distr. pts when I have an agreed suit with pard.

This is foreign to me and quite frankly refuse to play that way.

Am I on the way out of the mainstream or do I have a legit. gripe?

tks all
