Before I lave for the day I anted to share something with you guys.
We’ve been having a bit of a crappy spell here with a little too much noise and trolls and too little substance.
Part of it is natural, Part of it is our faults and part of it is your fault.
But I wanted to focus on what I LIKE about this place.
I retired from MA competition in 2000 and from MA gyms/schools in 03.
Since then I don’t get much chance to speak about MA, discuss it and, well…live it as much as I used to.
I love this place because I can come here and learn, enjoy, have fun and, if I am able to, even perhaps teach a little something to someone that I may be helpful to.
That is really awesome because I never had THIS when I was a beginner.
Never had a source of rich MA knowledge and experience to go to and get advice and just listen and learn about how things were and are outside of “my little world”.
And we have that, NOW.
Do you guys get that?
Do you get how awesome this truly is?

I don’t mind to share information here, but to share information to those who don’t respect TCMA is just like to “use your hot face to touch their cold ass”. It not only makes a fool out of yourself but also disrespect TCMA big time.
Beginner: What should I …?
TCMA guy: You may try …
MMA guy: Where is your MMA fighting clip?

Maybe that’s the reason why you have so many posts with bad and unworkable techniques and practices. You are giving out “opposite” information because you are afraid of people stealing your real techniques and practices.

That would explain a lot, actually.[/QUOTE]
And here is that cold ass he was talking about.
still here I see.
Too much peng. Not enough lu. I’m always disappointed how many people try to either confront or reason with the trollz. That’s such a stupid tactic - you fall right into the trolltrap. Lure them in, lead them on, and see what kind of outrageous thing they say.

What say you all to that?

I prefer to beat them over the head with their own shoe.
I am the unshakable wall, nothing here ever phases me…ever… ok I lie, sometimes Sanjuro’s posts with girlies phase me…but that is another matter.
one of my personal idols is a dead man by the name of takuan soho, we can all learn a lot from him. not everyone is able to flow effortlessly from circle to circle and accept that which you find in each…if you can however, it makes for a much more interesting ride. and you learn so much more that way.
anything in life that is worth while will take some form of effort. so, with that said, you can easily see the worth of KFM by how much effort it takes to find those golden nuggets and gleaming gems of glory. they are here, if you but only know how to open your eyes and see clearly. yess from both the tma and mma crowd…
part of me has pity for the lost souls of KFM that do not share my in depth understanding of the universe and its ways, and then part of me is like, fug u guys hahah i got it and you dont neener neener neener
but then i realize that is not productive, so i keep it to myself. anyway ‘getting it’ rules. we all think we get it, but he main difference between myself and most other people is that i actually do. but dont believe me because i very well may be lying to you.
Yes, this forum is very much like gold prospecting.
Absolutely the best/most comprehensive kung fu resource I have ever found, answers from every angle to all the questions I never thought to ask, but also an awful lot of sand to sift through. It takes patience, and search skills.
It’s nice though to hear all the different opinions…unless you travel around the world visiting MA schools, there’s no other way to find out what ‘everyone’ is thinking. I disagree with a lot, but I wouldn’t even know what to disagree with if this forum weren’t here. Now I know about all the various ‘camps’ (except the too busy training to post camp ) Very very useful.
Still, we(I mean ‘you all’ ) could be more careful about the trolls’ diets. :o
I am under the impressiong that our plan thus far has been to over feed the trolls with the hopes that they would become so large and bloated, that they would be readily recognizable. Unfortunately, that particular strategy seems to have been a failed venture.
