First the moderators would need to define “kung fu” to all posters. By definition MMA qualifies as kung fu and should be discussed in this forum. Instead either label the forum General Martial Arts and anything not martial arts related should go to the Other forum. Or create an MMA forum and a Traditional martial arts forum.
well this place will be quiter now with kf gone lol:eek:
Timeout room implemented here.
We could call ours “The pit” or something.
Or maybe just make it the Off Topic Forum.

You forgot the “N”…its supposed to be dammmmmn!
I am not sure you are educated enough to participate on this board. It probably all that time you are spending with criminal activities in order to establish your true kung fu practitioner credentials.

I completely agree with Gene’s actions and ideas. Many knowledgeable TCMA-ers have gone the way of silent listener on boards due to being tired of the silly flame wars started by extremists of any faction, and hopefully these steps will slowly bring them back.
for me i was on cyberkwoon forum and there were a lot of kids asking “can i masterbate if i train iron palm or dim mak” so i gave up being srs.
when i want to have serious discussion, most people dont really know about chinese martial arts other than what their sifu tells them. i bring up historical documents and evidence to back up my points and people just shrug it off with “lol no”
LMAO. I was there too…
Funny to hear you have a serious side, Bawang.
ya mang some times im super srs.
i can still remember those kids names, streetfighter and dragonball1991 lol. “hey guys i want to do dim mak but can i still jack off”
i hope gene ching does not ban me becase we are fellow chilese brothers.
At least from now on we don’t have to have movie clip or pictures ready to backup every single word that we are going to say.
A: I’m 30 years old, and my wife …
B: You need to show us your birth certificate, and also your wife’s picture, otherwise you are a liar.

What are you HIDING?!
[QUOTE=Kansuke;1057056]At what point do you segregate everyone so much (to protect the tender sensibilities of whomever considers a different opinion to be some kind of ‘unfair’ intrusion) that you just end up with walled off areas of people having discussions that consist of:
“Hmmm, yes, I see your point”
“Quite right, I agree”
“Yes, of course I agree with that agreement”
“Certainly the agreement on the point of agreement is agreeable”
“Why, that is certainly a solid point sir”
“Yes, indeed, it is”
Oh, I quite agree again"
And of course you will only have MORE of the whiney “He doesn’t belong here! He doesn’t pass my XYZ-art purity test. Make him go away!”
And will you forbid people with experience in more than one area (I know, I know, it’s not “real” experience to some…) to mention something pertinent from one area in a discussion of another? The whiners and wannabe ‘experts’ would just love that.
Let the free market of ideas hash it out I say.[/QUOTE]
word… i like that…
as long as it doesnt turn into a name calling fest, i dont like any threads being locked, anyone being banned or any other form of censoring the free flow of ideas… even if some of those ideas come from *******s… thats just life, you start trying to “clean” everything up, you get a sterile and stagnated environment of sickly ideas because they have no measure of strength through the trials of debate…
I disagree.
Were it simply a “martial arts” forum, then yes that would be fine. But in a “Kung Fu” forum to allow the “free flow” and “democratic” opinions of people to consistently say “TCMA”/“Kung Fu” is all a waste of time, etc. No, I don’t think this is cool, and…
Again…
I agree with what Gene is doing.
If we can just remove “YOU” and “I” from all discussion, we may be able to avoid a lot of arguments. When A gives B certain suggestion, C suddently jumps in and asks A to prove “talk the talk, and walk the walk. Put up or shut up.” It will be a very discourage for anybody to give other any suggestions.
Are they temporary bans?
[QUOTE=TenTigers;1057057]ok, but what if I want to start a discussion of which ne-waza techniques were utilized in the creation of BJJ, or how does BJJ differ from ne-waza, etc?[/QUOTE]
I assume you are asking about why the Judo forum does not include BJJ as part of their main forum.
All the BJJ, Sambo, wrestling, and SC are considered as “Other MA - grappling arts” in the Judo forum. You will have no place to be there if you are a TCMA guy. There was a famous Taiji guy (I won’t mention his name here), when he was there, every Judoka jumped on him and forced him to leave. When I started in that forum, he sent me a PM and told me about his story. I told him that I didn’t know how long that I could hang around there. In less than 3 months I left that forum too.
If you start dropping the ban hammer on people for having a different idea then this place will drop silent with any conversation or “intense” arguments.
