[QUOTE=Lee Chiang Po;1259399]I don’t come here as often as I used to. I spent about 5 and a half months trying to die in the VA Hospital. Just now trying to get it back together. The first thing I seen was a repeat of an old thread that had played out several times already. The most notable thing is that I see just a small hand full of the same names that are always ready to inject their opinions into everything. for a forum with so many members only a tiny hand full take part. Most of these are the ones that can speak of just about every fighting system ever though up. Google I think should be thanked for that. As long as these conditions continue, It will always be like this. People with real experience and ideas are afraid to join in because of this small band of bullies, who seem to spend most of their free time here or on a bunch of other forums doing the same things there.[/QUOTE]
Bullies? Really?
Why would someone with experience be afraid? What is there to be afraid of? If new data is presented, it behooves anyone to review what they hold onto and consider it’s validity. Discussion isn’t about making a statement and having everyone nod in agreement. I find that some of the greatest lessons in life will come out of realization and realization is generally along the lines of “I was wrong!” and almost never “I was right”.
Discuss instead of bicker. If someone gives you a piece of shyte, hand it back to them. Nothing wrong with arguing and always good to keep in mind that when speaking of intangibles that one can only claim personal experience an belief and not verified truth. Two very different things. The very best leaders spend a lot of time learning to follow.

I, for one, have always appreciated your contributions!
Many MAist just tend to have more aggressive personalities than perhaps non-MAists.

Well, a cat-like OOOOOOooooooooowwwwwwwwwwwwah is my trademark, so you know I’ll bring that kind of power to the fight.
It saddens me to report that I haven’t mastered the slow motion acid hands technique yet, so we might not be able to achieve invisibility.:o I think it’s time for me to visit the great kung fu master living in a cave high up on mount LARP. When I return in two weeks I shall be completely invincible and then we can start our war campaign.
In the meantime, while we wait for me to become invincible, we could get our white belt minions to air drop a few dozen pallets of Molson on our enemy which should serve as an adequate distraction.

Shhhhhh! Disinformation was our most powerful weapon. Now you went and did it.:mad: Lets just hope the enemy gets too drunk on the air dropped Molsons to read this post.:D;)

Judging from the bitching and whining during this cold snap, yall would go out like the french and germans did in russia. I just can’t see some southern good ol boy having the fortitude to take out winnipeg. Especially since even people from winnipeg hate winnipeg!

Oh, and MightyB, I’m sending you a bill for the therapy I’m going to have to undergo after glancing at that photo.
