sadly, sometimes i think that whipping hand just has a little formula to say something without knowing anything… but then other times i feel like hes actually saying something and get what hes trying to say
mabye half the time hes just trying to get a rise out of you guys :eek:
hes not overly disrespectful and his posts tend to be short and not take up too much bandwith so i dont really see why theres a problem
peace

Receive what comes, Escort what leaves, and if there is an opening, rush in
I was once banned from a MA forum, for having the temerity to suggest that their art was imperfect and their training could be improved! Those Aikido guys are really thin-skinned.
If you ban everyone who disagrees with or annoys you, you will only “learn” what you already know.
What would have happened if Leung Sheung had banned Yip Man from his school, when he first made some rude comments?
And, more importantly, if he gets banned I will probably be next.

I am thankful for those of you who have posted thus far. I feel it is important for everyone to have a chance to present his say. I wish to clarify my position; I am in no way eager to ban anyone from this board. This is a subject which I approach with much reluctance. There is a great deal of truth to the “fear” that once such actions are started they will snowball and become uncontrolled. One of the reasons why the NAACP supports the right of the Ku Klux Klan to march is the very danger that once one groups, or individuals rights are infringed upon it opens the door to do the same to others. However, I still will honor the desire of the majority of the people on this board. If the majority requests an action to be taken then I will do my best to carry out that action.
Whipping Hand,
I had hoped to attend Sifu Augustine Fongs seminar at Patrick Gordons. There is still a possibility that I may be able to attend, and if I do I will be glad to meet with you. However, right now it does not look promising financially. I recently had to have a sewer line replaced and the cost was, a bit high. This has tapped into much of my funds. I am currently thinking of attending a martial arts event in New jersey on Septeber 8th as it would be both closer and cheaper. However, do not give up hope of our meeting. I may be able to arrange a trip to the Falls and I believe Toronto is not that far away. Perhaps we could meet during this time. Also, is there a possibility of your meeting me halfway, or maybe a third of the way? If I do come up it will most likely be in Early October, if I do decide not to attend the seminar.
Maybe he just doesn’t like to throw out info, but prefers to throw out bits of info and make you think on it. Why should anyone just give you 100% and not make you do some of the work. Just something to think about, I don’t know if it makes any sense or not.

I agree with vertical fist…WH telling me to “Empty my cup” five times when I didn’t aggrevate him is not good forum behaviour…and asking the moderator to re-open a locked post to write more bad things about me only adds to the insult…
and I don’t notice him changing his snarky comments recently either although most people voting for him to stay have asked him to curb his smart mouth…
