I'm from the UK and didn't know it existed -
But i will take a look-

Buy the way does anyone still look in on the Hong Kong ones - are they still trying to keep Wing Chun in the gutter with derogatory remarks about other Sifu's and general slagging off - Its a shame especially as it appears that the only people that post on it dont actually live in Hong Kong - What knowledge and opinions are we missing out on ?

The HK site is still up, and still full of bile and personal attacks, and in some cases, genuine lunatics.

Man, they really hate Leung Ting there!

Reading about LT's shortcomings is all very well, but I know how annoyed I got when people were bad mouthing my own instructor on that site, so I take it all with a pinch of salt.

This forum is a real breath of fresh air after that. I try to avoid the place, but morbid curiosity sometimes gets the better of me ;)

around in darkened rooms, munching magic pills and listening to repetitive electronic music." ;)

A "WT" site forum is sort of bound to be a little LT'y. Dont ya think?

the guai lo (sp?) or whatever white devils we are seem to be a little more in the 'spirit' of appreciating other arts and teachers as well as their own. And yet, those traditionalists over there in HK love to slag on every one that isn't of their own family. Makes one wonder, dont'it.

As far as hating LT, it's probably because the dude gotz schoolz in 63 countries and is richer than any of them could ever dream of being. (just a thought.)
