wtf?

Why is this forum moderated to death?

It is OT for cripes sake. Nobody is in here except for 1bad, drake and bowlder dog arguing about america

But the main forum gets left alone mostly?

What happened to this place anyway?

yeesh

4 mods and the most complaints

Believe it or not, I get more complaints about this forum than the Wing Chun forum now. :rolleyes:

As for the recent BD vs. Drake flame war, I’m in conversation with Drake and hope to work it out. We’ll see.

I find that hard to believe !!
:smiley:

Really?

Cause that wing chun forum is filled to eth brim with dou… nevermind. :smiley:

anyway, point taken.

I was just curious really.

P.S Please ban hardwork108 if he isn’t you teaching us patience through zen.

thank you.

:slight_smile:

David Jamieson…

Kill yourself…

KIDDING!! DON’T DO IT!!

Not you, anyway… :stuck_out_tongue:

Drake and I have come to an agreement

I have unbanned Drake.

Wing Chun died down a bit, both in discussion here and in print. It used to be I’d get a flame war there every couple of weeks and articles submitted all the time. It got so bad that I had to tell people that new Wing Chun submissions would have to queue up for a long time before I’d even get around to reading them.

Now I get this feeling it’s on the verge or a resurgence. I’m starting to get Wing Chun submissions again and in wake of Ip Man, there are several other Wing Chun movies on the way. I hear Wing Chun schools are now thriving in PRC and Hong Kong.

But more to the point, as you know, I’m very laissez faire about moderation here. I’m happy to ban people because it’s just a flick of a switch. Many members betray their foolishness through poor posting. Many more show more foolishness by reacting to that. It’s one of those ‘who’s more the fool, the fool or the fool who follows the fool?’ problems. There’s just no teaching some, so why bother?

But you two, of all people here, know what I’m talking about. :wink:

F*ck, I guess I gotta flamewar more.

ya’ll gotta learn to be an a$$ without taking a poop… it’s all about class and wit mang. :stuck_out_tongue:

You banned Drake?

I mean, he’s a right wing militaristic flag waver, but that’s nothing compared to the lord of delusions we call “hardly working for 108 weeks straight” :stuck_out_tongue:

jeez Drake, what did you do? Totally lose it and threaten to kill someone over a remark about your propensity for young men and cheap wine?

what was it? :smiley:

I would have banned Boulderdog, or whatever his handle is, long before I would ban Drake.
I mean, at least Drake gets into SOME of the MA discussions.
I don’t get the banning…
Glad it was reversed though.

Personally I think that we should NOT allow any political discussions on a MA forum, even on the off topic.
As for those that should be banned, well…
To be honest, as much as certain posters tend to contaminate good threads with their attempts to cause ****, I think that some crap is need to offset the quality, its a yin-yang thing.
Besides that, having “living, posting proof” of all that is wrong with TCMA is not a bad thing.

What isn’t political?

Also it appears that any topics that people have objected about has been locked. Is this not the “off topic” area? Just because people cannot discuss the subject in a mature manner is no reason to lock the topic. Those people should be dealt with individually.

There is no reason to personally insult another poster simply because you don’t like their views. Deal with it on an individual basis.

[QUOTE=kfson;994168]What isn’t political?[/QUOTE]are you attempting to start **** and conaminate the thread with your honesty??? :smiley:

[QUOTE=kfson;994168]What isn’t political?[/QUOTE]

Love.

The air we breath.

Gourmet food.

Music from the heart.

A well done days work.

A parents effort.

Man, I could go on… :slight_smile:

politics can be applied to anything, but that doesn’t mean everything is political. One must make it so.

So Gene, If I object to a thread on this board simply based on the subject matter then it’s going to be immediately locked down?

Every post on the military thread was linked and documented. Why was it locked?

If this is going to be the case where threads are closed because people don’t like them then let me know now.

If I asked you to stop using the words “teabagger” and “Biblethumper” as they are insults to people with certain political views (including myself), would you stop using those insults?

Basically, I was disrespectful to Gene, and I accept that. It had nothing to do with anything but that.

So, in the future, I’ll respect his wishes and simply refer to wife-beating racist liberal psychopaths in Boulder. Since, by not naming a person, I can’t possibly be insulting an individual, right? :smiley:

And no… I don’t threaten people over the net. It’s kind of silly, really.

Do you ever post in this MA forum about MA ???

People can call me whatever they want. Will that change me? Not one bit. Will that insult me? Maybe for a second while the child in me throws a temper tantrum, then I tell the child to shut his !&(!%^)!^$)!^ arse. He understands I mean business.
