Taj - One of the problems I have noticed is that some people actually repair their ball mark, but do it by lifting up the damaged turf like they do "up north". But that will result in a dead spot on the greens since the grass lifted in that manner will die. I have mentioned this to several players and almost always get the response that they "know" how to repair a ball mark and don't need to be told how by me. And then there are the ones that think slamming a putter on the depression somehow repairs the dent.
