First of all, the article is a one off hit piece by a Vic Nash who has submitted and completed exactly one (1) article for that site.

Second of all, Nash is absolutely correct in his observations about Trollshido, what it is, what it's about and what trash they wave there as a flag.

Anyway, it's weird that it's a hit piece, but that site really and truly is crap and I wouldn't put it past them to do all sorts of unethical, immoral or sundry other dirty tricks.

They got a track record for being d-bags after all. lol

Further evidence of the effectiveness of the fetal position :p

The poster said that fight was at the middle-weight division. Dude was that chubby at ~160? I'm thinking that's the first time he's ever been on a mat, let alone in a cage.

I use to enjoy Bullshido and met up a few times with some forum members to spar and workout while I lived in Boston. I did get tired of weeding out all the posts from the MMA douche bags and other keyboard tough guys who would post the same crap over and over again.

If true, I'm amazed that they made enough money to pay people to post. We certainly don't do that here, except for me. I suppose you could say I'm paid to post and paid to sling Tiger Claw (http://www.tigerclaw.com/) gear, but that's a different story entirely.

Truth be told, I haven't given Bullshido much thought lately, however I see now that it still comes up 3rd on a Google vanity search of my name. Slot #3 is "Gene Ching Hurt My Feelings" on Bullshido, a thread from 2006. Even though I'm bummed that a KungFuMagazine.com link doesn't come up until #7, this strikes me as really, really funny.

The Bullshido is just like the Judo forum. If you are not a MMA guy in Bullshido, or a Judoka in Judo forum, people may just ignore you and pretend that you don't even exist, or worse than that, they may attack every single word that you want to say.

There is a traditional martial art (and Chinese martial art) sub-forum there.

But of course, it is not as popular and populated as the primary forum for MMA and stuff.

It's a strange feeling over that forum. I believe I'm a left wing liberal democrate (in favor of corss training), but in Bullshido, that's just a bunch of extream left wing communist over there. No matter how "left" you are, you are still not "left" enough in their eyes. If you don't cross train boxing, MT, wrestling, BJJ, you are just nobody.

Are you sure it wasn't Rudy Abel who wrote that article.:p

In all seriousness, I doubt any of that article to be true, however, sensationalism gets attention, and that has always been one of Bullshido's goals. On one side you have the MMA backers and the douchebaggery they bring, than you have the TMA guys and the whining and bickering they bring. Honestly, it's a constant p**ss fest and d**ck measuring contest and always has been. Bullshido may actually have been a good site at one time and probably does still have some good members, but it doesn't make up for the constant s**t fest and keyboard warriors that also inhabit it.

But, they really have outdone themselves when it comes to being greasy.
They have actually altered peoples posts and messed with personal accounts etc etc. They lost all credibility years ago.

The original Idea was cool, but the mind behind it was rotten and so no good fruit will come from that.

(I hate to post the entire quote, but I wanted you to know who and what I was answering to)
The main reason is they are for the most part, pretty ignorant of TCMA. If it is outside their experience, then it is outside their belief system. Then they come on like pompous arses and shut you down. I really don't have much tolerance of people who are ignorant and arrogant.
I also find it funny that sometimes, when they dissagree with a statement, or perhaps they simply don't understand the post, they will harp on about the poster's sentence structure, like some neurotic English teacher in middle school, rather than actually address the topic. Then when someone complains, they go on and on about,"Well, if you can't take the heat..."

too many anonymous people at bullshido claims to be ex army sargent ex tier 1 commandos ex enterprise away team etc

i think bullshido had a good start when it was mcdojo.com. people let out their anger and frustrations at bad experiences. but then it got extreme (racist comments everywhere), then trolls hijacked the site.

there was a poll and most people there trained one hour a week. and most off them admiteed to doing taekwondo and a week or two of ju jitsu. after seeing video of phrost and anthony i got disappointed and never went back to that website

Well, to address any topic one will first need to have at least a basic knowledge. As you have correctly pointed out those people are just shooting in the dark as far as serious TCMA discussions are concerned. Actually, not do they only shoot in the dark, but they shoot themselves in the foot......not unlike many TCMA critics in this very forum, but luckily we have at least a few people who actually train TCMAs.:)

You can post pretty much whatever stupid comment you want in YMAS, Trollshido, etc, but the technique forums have been tightly moderated since about... oh... 2007; it's not exactly a new thing. If you actually read the guy's post, the moderator specifically told him what the problem with his post was, and it wasn't deleted, just moved to one of the forums in which it was appropriate.

The BJJ forum specifically is moderated by a brown belt who has no patience for crappy posts.

I assume you address this to me. Please let me know which statement that I had posted there were "stupid" in that "O Soto gari" thread.

I'll challenge anybody who can point out any improper statement that I made in the following post.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Original post:

The reaping leg should be brought as high as possible, the greater the height, without compromising stability the greater the power of the throw.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My post:

I have concern on the above statement. When you raise your leg high, your body is not leaning forward. That means you don't have forward momentum. If your opponent has the same grips on you as you do, he can apply the same move on you too.

The following approach is safer. You have reduced the amount of time that you stay on your single leg balance to the minimum.

- hook your leg behind your opponent's leg (no need to raise high),
- drop your foot,
- step in your back foot to pass your opponet, and
- run your opponent down.

LMAO, a little touchy there Phrost? I would think if what someone said was wrong, the moderator would simply correct them or argue their veiwpoint of why it was wrong, rather than delete or move it to another thread, to me that just doesn't make much sense. But I guess us Kung Fu guys are a little slow.:D

I saw down on your post where it was not deleted, just moved to another thread. But the question still is why move it? Wouldn't it make more sense to leave it there so people could see a wrong answer that was corrected? Just wondering.

and every once in a while omar shows up pretending it never happened
"baji demigod"

He doesn't pretend it never happened. He certainly recognizes what it was for what it wass. lol

A load of crap with a weirdo tranny, a coked out wrestler wanna be, an old washed up kung fu guy and Omar appeared to be an observer although the fight was supposed to be between him and the tranny.

So, JFS got charged and tackled by coked out dude filled with anger, slips a hold on him and they....linger on the ground for a while.

Then all the trollshido goofs pile into the trannies cute ute and speed out of the parking lot leaving omar and jfs standing there.

And that's pretty much exactly how a trollshido challenge match will go.

too many people will show up, the wrong people will get in a fight and the actual contest will never occur cleanly or otherwise ergo, trollshido is fail.

That's the caveat. Anthony wouldn't state as much if it weren't true UNLESS it were Bullshido shenanigans.

However, Phrost's dislike for CMA is well known and not disputed by anyone who actually knows him, and it's my frank opinion that he and those who are his fanboys work overtime to affect the reputation of kung fu, irrespective of whether a school is good or not or progressive or not, so their behavior is the business of kung fu folk as much as being progressive and using our **** is, if they intend on doing business.

That said, they can't troll worth a sh1t anymore. I said it.

KC Elbows
03-29-2011, 02:34 PM
The number one reason I doubt it's a true story is because the thread talks about being debitted from your account for being an admin. Having been an admin there, I would suggest only a total moron would pay for the role. Hell, this site has ads AND a backer, and I'll bet the staff here are mostly volunteer, possibly ex-cons.:D

If the current crop of Admins are chosen from premium subscribers, then yes, they probably are paying.

KC Elbows
03-29-2011, 03:14 PM
The idea of paying to be on a forum that is not professionally based is bizarre to me. I know people do it, but I just don't get it.

I had an idea for a forum once, CommForum, the Red Forum. No members got names, you were just "Member 342", I'd be "Member 1", and if I didn't like your contribution, I'd send you to reeducation. At this point, I really feel that Bullshido has totally stolen my idea.

Due to his unflagging contributions to CommForum, the enemies of Member 69 and Member 187 have been identified as reactionary counterrevolutionaries, and their attractive women folk will be turned over to him for reeducation. Long live the Great Revolution of Member #1!

The admins could be 2,3,4,5,6 and 7

When a premium member becomes an admin, they lose thier original username (say Member# 8432) and becomes Admin# 2,3,4,5,6 or 7.

His admin badge is gone from his posts though. To be a hoax, he would have had to agree to be stripped from the staff. McDojo.com is just bizarre enough for this to be real.

Here's screen shots of some of his posts

http://s6.zetaboards.com/No_BS_Martial_Arts/topic/648161/2/

His last post was at 3:42. It's pictured third from the end in the above forum (post# 27). Notice his [STAFF] badge is gone, and his username is no longer red.

03-29-2011, 03:51 PM
My prediction is that it's an example of the poor quality their trolling has become. Anthony never, never, was the guy to pull off a good, subtle troll. He always goes over the top. So here, he's claiming to want to study Defendo, he's claiming that they employed Chinese prisoners as troll gangs, a staff retreat at "Phrost's compound", it's too over the top.

It is amusing that they believe that the equivalent english to a bullshido troll is a prisoner in the PRC, though.

During my time and KC''s time there, we had a few fund raising events, I recall the one I did in when we sold Bullshido Hoodies and the money was used to fix up the site and things like that.
People could also pay to be part of the "black belt" club and become supporting members.
But all that was before the increase in ad revenues, from what I recall.
All that is truly ancient history.
Whatever goes on in that site, or any other, has ZERO to do with us or anyone else.
I suggest we leave them to their target audience and allow them to fix whatever internal issues they may or may not have.
On a side note, its good to hear that Aeosopian got his brown belt in BJJ ( I assume that is who Neal was talking about when he posted a few pages back).

No bronzer my friend, just the shadow. The funny part is the fat jokes originated from my 1st mma fight. I was sidelined with a back injury for 2 years. I took the fight in 3 months notice, and well, I didn't get to lose the weight fast enough. My fight with Rudy is usually the size I walk around with if I'm lifting, training, etc. Now that I stopped lifting for size, I walk around 225 to 230lbs.

I can go over how we got to this point with the admins. This was based off of what KC Elbows setup when he was an admin. The admins are culled from the supporting members. Usually from someone who does a lot of volunteer work, etc. We (and it sounds so fake to me now saying we), would look for the supporting members that wanted to be one of the popular kids. you know posted a lot, was very vocal in the defense of the site, their martial art, etc. If they did BJJ/mma, it was almost a given they would get onboard. Sad to say, KFMags David Jamison would probably be a candidate. Hes loud, posts a lot, and defends this site. But the dynamics change when you come onboard. There is a "Profit sharing" agreement that Sam Browning has everyone sign, where what you bring to the site pays you back. This goes back to the contract/agreement that the original five signed a few years back. We made sure that if anyone does come onboard in an admin capacity, that we would be covered. nonetheless, the profit we put aside for new admins was roughly 13.5% of what the total amount.
You can opt out of this, but to my knowledge as of yesterday, no one has. The kicker is that Phrost/Neal set it up, and I'm sad to say, with me directing and planning as a MLM type of venture. So ie, Wolf brought in Kinaton, every Admin pays $100.00 a month, that is directly debited from our bank accounts, and for every leg you bring on, you get 20% of their payout. It ties us closer to the program, less chance of detractors or anyone screwing us over if they are admins.

This money invested was to be paid back after the two years plus profit.

I don't understand why anyone would involve money with an internet forum.

The reasons to have one is much along the lines of why KFM has one.

1) It allows readers, enthusiasts and subscribers to interact.

2) It bolsters a web presence and makes your primary business easier to find.

3) The forum supports the primary business which is the magazine and the stores.

4) Forums generate free content and also keep site rankings up with search engines.


To start a forum based on some ideological brain f@rt doesn't make sense.

Web forums are usually tied to a business plan that targets as many forms of communication media as possible in order to reach... the customer!

Otherwise it's a private forum for buddies or an exercise in ego that is ridiculously unabashed. Mind you, in Martial Arts, there are as many ridiculous egotistical people as there are in the entertainment industry! Maybe more because there is a higher ratio of nobodies like me.

I've never made any bones about my ego and I've never claimed to not have one or need one. In fact, I think people who claim no ego are deluded and kidding themselves due to the simple fact, that without one, you would probably be a schizophrenic.

The less someone is capable of dealing with life in general and the more attention they crave is directly proportionate to the size of the egoism they display.

So, a whole website dedicated to itself without actually having a real business behind it is more than anything a statement about over inflated egos and that, in a nutshell is what bullshido is.

food for thought for the rest of you who are trying to figure out why you might want to tie a forum to your site. :)

Well it all goes back to KC Elbows and what he set up. Ultimately, what KC created was an enviroment not unlike a cult. Have a common goal/enemies, amass a group of people disenchanted with their current surroundings/martial arts, and give them a purpose. All dictated by the person who started it all, Phrost.

It wasn't a huge jump to start making money. People come back to Bullshido for the train wreck, as well as for the investigations, and the group thought.

There's more when it comes to the actual money side, as the site will probably clear mid 6 figures this year as per my projections. this is above the other ventures, the bottled water company, and hip hop urban clothing company being the two slated for mid year release.

Any growing alive thing will evolve Paul. But to advance in anything, the basics must be perfect and they were. KC set up the perfect environment where the lowly kid sitting in the corner who doesn't talk to anyone can become a star and popular by towing the company line, training in the right Martial Art, and vehement in his convictions. The paying for the right to do that only cements the relationship, and it's a one way street for Phrost/Neal.

Without proper instruction, training and without good character an individual will almost NEVER investigate their own flaws and are often oblivious of them.

A person in a cult doesn't believe themselves to be so. They believe themselves to have made a decisions regarding their beliefs. they do not recognize manipulation as much more than validation and so, often they stay trapped.

It takes a fair amount of trauma to get someone extracted from cult thinking / groupthink.

The revelations that attest to a persons mental faculties are that they know themselves and the circumstances they are in and can explain that clearly without being a proselytizer at all.

The fetch wood, carry water, day to day matter of fact types are the stable ones. the emotional, indecisive and haughty ones...yeah, those people need a short sharp shock to shake them free.

What's interesting about this is that Anthony there DID drink kool-aid and it was apparently Trollshido who failed at keeping the kool-aid flowing.

why?

Because they as individual human beings desire! And their desire is regarded as more than yours, mine or Anthony's and so Anthony got his trauma which appears to be freeing him of his kool-aid drinking.

But as you can see by how defensive Anthony gets when even mildly ribbed, you can see he is suffering from his experience. It's a huge deal to him because HE DESIRED to make bank off of it and was denied that.

Trauma. Lesson. Shame. Learn. Move On. Grow as a person.
That is the order that it will occur to this guy.

He's burnt the bridge already because it is fair to say that the personality that set him up is quite chaotic and not well in and of itself. It is a negative from the get go.

Think about it Bro, the people leaving. How may times has Mike tried to leave? We've made concessions with him on a lot of things. My 1st grappling competition, I got my ass handed to me by arm triangle. Who ran it? Mike. My 1st MMA fight, I got the ever living **** beat out of me, and still fought even after my opponent was changed last minute and I wasn't told till I landed in Los Angeles. Who ran it? Mike.

Thank you, I appreciate it. Almost 10 years invested just in time, and money, well, the money isn't that big of a deal to me really. I've invested in worse. So a loss sucks, but the money made... That's a different story. I handled most of the operations at one time, and my spread sheets were what drove the place. So when I start seeing a discretionary fund increasing every month, and no receipts needed, then I'm going to have an issue. Especially when the amount always brings the profit to just about break even so no one gets a disbursement. But money aside, Neal was like a brother to me. He'd call me up on my birthday every year, always asked about my kids, talked highly of my son's last wrestling competition where he won 1st place gold, and generally a staple of my life for 8 years. So yeah, this sucks on more levels than just money.

Plus, if you make your money from an out of country source, you not only do not have to pay taxes to Panama, you don't even have to file, so there is no actual paper trail as to how much the business makes.

A website, for example, would be the perfect international business and Panama is the perfect place to base it out of.

No, it's not. Costa Rica has disclosure agreements with the US. They are the last place I'd have an account. The only way would be to have the company out of panama, and the companies bank account in Costa Rica. Also though, I'd have accounts in several locations based on how they are ranked according to how untouchable they are by the US.

Hong Kong would probably also be very good, but it's been some time since I looked into this stuff.

KC Elbows
03-30-2011, 03:45 PM
Well it all goes back to KC Elbows and what he set up. Ultimately, what KC created was an enviroment not unlike a cult. Have a common goal/enemies, amass a group of people disenchanted with their current surroundings/martial arts, and give them a purpose. All dictated by the person who started it all, Phrost.

To add some details, at the start, Phrost was a non presence on the forums. As admin, I was in charge of everything moderation-wise except bannings. I was added in, as well as Miguk, to attract traditionalists(this was something made clear as I left). As such, my authority was fairly absolute up until the DRD-Jamoke situation. This was before culling PM's for info, that was started by me when I realized that a staff member was using ip's to trace a member who was making claims about Jamoke's school, circumventing the membership's ability to examine the claims and potentially giving a free pass because someone knew a staff member.

Now, the cult like environment was partially my fault, but Phrost never really had my ear. I'd hung out with him a few times, but he did not really run the forums back then, socially. I never had any dealings with the finances, and certainly had no interest in doing so. However, while I had openly disagreed with Phrost on a number of occasions on policy issues, and designed much of the early policy, including the management of crises with what amounts to psy ops from the point of the DRD debacle on, I am not aware of a single staff member who was willing to tell Phrost or myself an idea was bad until The Wastrel and then Osiris, and Osiris still was not capable of doing so openly with Phrost at the time I was there.

This element, the development of an inner circle who is there at the behest of a leader, and incapable of questioning the judgment of that leader, is the main cultlike attribute that ensued, though the circle included, at times to Phrost's chagrin, several members whose popularity brought clicks, Brand and Boyd being examples. As I never had any problem disagreeing with Phrost, when he began to actually take part in the forum, and I, at the same time, was losing some interest, friction ensued, exacerbated by my tendency, at that time, to micromanage all problems in order to keep them from blowing up, so that my micromanagement of things was annoying Osiris and others, while Phrost's silly plans that went nowhere annoyed me.

Neither Phrost or I played much part in Asia, Omega, or your early role, the accolades of the peanut gallery doing most of the work, and the shared goal of outing fraud doing its part.

For the record, my main disagreement that led to me leaving was started slightly before the JF Springer investigation. There had been a number of investigations started not because there was cause to investigate, but because who was being investigated did the wrong art. Miguk was the first. My issue was mainly that policy should dictate that cause must be established first, otherwise the investigative function would be very easily abused. In the argument between Phrost and I that ensued, my impression was that his view was that doing kung fu was sufficient cause.

The ads started before I left, but again, I never dealt with the funding of the site, and I imagine it became more involved later.

The point is, and I appreciate Sanjuro-Ronin putting a few kind words out for me on this, that while my role set up the authority initially, it was Phrost who ended up using it to tout an overall view that should be held. The authority I set up was problematic more because I did nothing to ensure that the staff was capable and practiced at reaching their own consensus, and so any authority was going to be strong, central, and marked by the views of the authoritarian.

Out of curiosity, this compound you say exists, is it in the KC area?

To add some details, at the start, Phrost was a non presence on the forums. As admin, I was in charge of everything moderation-wise except bannings. I was added in, as well as Miguk, to attract traditionalists(this was something made clear as I left). As such, my authority was fairly absolute up until the DRD-Jamoke situation. This was before culling PM's for info, that was started by me when I realized that a staff member was using ip's to trace a member who was making claims about Jamoke's school, circumventing the membership's ability to examine the claims and potentially giving a free pass because someone knew a staff member.

I've read and re read this post about five times now. Face value, I can see what you are conveying, but underneath it all, I see the pattern that ultimately led me here. You see, I've disagreed with Neal, a lot. But always in private. Things changed once money got involved with the MLM, and profit sharing. Once he had that big stick, I don't think I've ever disagreed after. Hind sight being 20/20, it boils down to greed. You can't con an honest man...

While writing this I got a nasty text from Sam Browning about divulging Neal's home of residence. Though a through search for underground bunkers in his old area should prove interesting.

While going through my paper work for my laywer, I came up across a note that Neal/Phrost sent me. It was 14 pages long and was the notes he made for himself when he gave us an almost 4 hour speech on Heinlein back when we met on his compound to start this all.

http://i.imgur.com/ceE8V.jpg

Looking back at it, Neal knew how to push all the buttons.

This was posted yesterday on Sociocide but I didn't see it. It's the NDA we all had to sign before we got Admin status. Neal got freaked out when Deadpan Scientist and Ronin left and demanded everyone sign the NDA. One of the reasons why Cy got booted was Neal started to distrust him more and more every day, all because Cy wouldn't sign the NDA. (added) I want you all to pay attention to the draft number for the NDA. We went through quite a few of them and every change, we had to sign off on, or lose our access to the site.

http://www.naming-schemes.org/~chardin/ccpsp-nda.png

I'll post up more stuff that I am allowed too as I come across them. Interesting enough, Cy aka Chuck Hardin went off on Sociocide about certain things and now we have an international law enforcement entity involved. My lawyers asked me to keep quiet on the actual group.

How could I see wrong in it, when I put most of it together? Once I got over the part that KC Elbows was a genius putting the basic framework for Bullshido together, I just added on pieces with Neal. I am very much responsible for the checks and balances we put on the staff from Admin down. What I should have paid more attention to was checks and balances for the original five, which Neal had final say on all matters.

There is nothing in the world that has not been exploited for money. How often have any of you seen something that starts out with an agenda, a common goal, a cause, whatever, ect. It is all about furthuring the cause and "righting the wrong" until someone down the line figures out they can make money off of it.

Than, plain and simple, it becomes a business. Where profit margins supercede ideologies, and those who perhaps stood for something begin makeing exceptions to the rules or turning a blind eye to what may have been construed as wrong in the past, but the dollars are rolling in and they can't chance to harm that magic goose.

In the end, business is business. And business is about making money.

First of All, His name is "Wang" and that is a clear indicator of something for the ladies.

Secondly, John can apparently hand people their asses in a teacup with marginal ease.

...and last but not least, John is clearly an outlier. Even his ideas about martial arts make more sense than what comes out of some Chinese guys and what they think martial arts are. lol
