[QUOTE=Water Dragon;732335]lol. He went by Jojutsu for a while. I remember he used to get into it with some crazy Canadian called Kung Lek.[/QUOTE]
I think he went by jukai man also. He claimed to live in my city.
While were recolecting… We cannot forget Xebsball. That guy always had some interesting isht to say.
It really makes me happy to see the usual suspects around here. I knew the banninator would still be around though…he loves stealing peoples souls.
I remember all the insults I’ve made and all the flame wars.
I remember when the main page had crazy trafic with new threads by the minute.
I remember when I actually wrote anything, personal or related to anything.
I remember battling threads, going on forever.
Angry moderator PM’s.
I remember how different life was back then compared to now.
I remember my password.
I remember the first version of this forum.
But most of all I remember the ORA gang and that I actually care about them. How weird that may be. A bunch of people I’ve never met, feels like distant family.
peace

LOL!! I remember me and Shaolindynasty both got into a post competition to see who could start a thread that got the most responses by the end of the day once.
I don’t remember which one of us won, but I seem to remember we both posted thread entitled “What is this crap?”, which had no actual topic of discussion once you opened it and looked to see what we were talking about. That thread became like 8-9 pages long by the end of the day.
I remember back when David Kash had his guys stalking me all over the internet on every forum and thread I posted on (While I was PART of their Org I might add), and the final blow out happened here over a number of threads.
I remeber he was exposed so badly that he was contacting random, unrelated people on the forum, and threatening laws suites to shut the posters up.
And then there was all the crazy Ralek threads -Best Troll ever BTW
Those were some crazy times back then!!
It’s strange. I think of the ORAist as my fam too. The battle thread was great…even though I couldn’t rap at all back then (I’ve been practicing…)
I remember sending NortherPractioner my old, crappy, underdeveloped beats.
I remember the Slam Poetry I used to do.
I remember being accused daily that I was MeatShake trolling.
I remember how angry I was when I missed Taiji Legacy and meeting peeps from the forum
I remember MeatShake finding my true Sifu, Kirk Woller, through this forum (WaterDragon)
I remember how fun it was to flame those loony Falun Gongers.
I remember laughing my ass off at everyone making fun of Blooming Lotus’ pictures.
I remember petitioning for GDA’s readmittance to the forum for posting orgish.com pics.
I remember the string of politically charged threads that happend at least 6times a day
I remember when the ORA wasn’t about Other Related (martial) Arts, but was like KFM after midnight.
I remember the old loop-hole for typing cuss words…
Now that I think of it…I had some fun times on this forum.

Fuck man, you can STILL do that!! It’s just a bit more complicated now!
Royal Dragon…PM me with details.
I remember when ORA was the theme for the ENTIRE board.
I remember when fanboys spead like a virus and internet-speak was the official language.
I remember when “try that on royce” was the answer to everything from “have a nice day” to “whats your shoe size”. (now that it has been done to royce, oh well :rolleyes: )
I remember when the takedown was unstoppable. Banana peels and oil slicks were everywhere.
I remember… too many things. 
I keep waiting for someone to mention Serpant and all those other crazy Assies…:eek: 
Serpent was actually Scottish, he just lived in Australia, he was pretty cool though.
We’ve mentioned Ego, how much more crazy do you want your Aussies?
[QUOTE=SevenStar;732492]Tell her that I - uh, I mean… We - miss her.[/QUOTE]
{chuckle}

there’s some new stuff on her website
i like “Hokusai”
Anybody still remember Sam Wiley, Marsala/Masada, Rich Mooney and of course Patterson. Remember when conversation around here centered on raising mantids and chi?
Who was that Combat Tai Chi guy?
Yeah, and that weird Dagga guy

I think I won. I cheated though. I remember having a contest like that, but serpent and I were involved. I TTTed the ultimate grappling thread, which had already had like 15 pages at the time.
[QUOTE=rogue;732578]Who was that Combat Tai Chi guy?[/QUOTE]
you talking about shooter?
[QUOTE=rogue;732357]What happened to good old KL, didn’t he get a sex change or something? Those are free up in Canada.[/QUOTE]
You’re thinking of sweden. They’re free in european welfare states such as all of northern europe, but in canada, if we want good medicine, we save up our shiny gold coins and head south where health care isn’t free, but at least it’s available.
as for KL, he went on to become more man than few of you will even approach becoming.
never even mind his gigantic and fear rendering celestial root. Which he would pull trucks with if there wasn’t a danger of some dude running up and hoofing it full force while having his picture taken!
no names coughGenecough
also, “Kung” in swedish is “King”. while Lek, is Lek.
[QUOTE=Ben Gash;732579]Yeah, and that weird Dagga guy ;)[/QUOTE]
I forgot all about that clown. Poor guy died in a death match with Red5.
Wow 7, almost forgot about Shooter. Has anybody heard from him and if he’s still using Tai Chi in the ring? The guy I was thinking about was in the Air Force, may have been based in Oklahoma and used to post videos of tai chi against other styles. Of course the other styles always used a stereotyped attack. He had an ad in Black Belt not too long ago. Found him, Gary Romel.
He has a web site http://www.flowingcombat.com/
Found a review of his videos, ouch. But it sounds like the same things that we said to him here.

Maybe we can dig Ap back up and have Watchman say howdy. I found them before.
I remember when one of two things would happen on an almost hourly basis-
A would take the correct and do X with it.
or (sometimes)
The correct would take A and do X with them.
