Yup. Seems that way. Some have moved over to another forum...which is very lively and has plenty of daily activity.

Yes but a couple of self impressed dogmatist from here clog up discussions there. But you are right it has more life.

This is NOT a WC only discussion forum and while there were times that the WC forum took up MOST of the discussions going on, they were never really productive as much as full of drama.
It saddens me to an extent that all the posters prefered to go elsewhere to continue the drama rather than fix the problems but, such is life.
Heck, we still have hendrick *shoots himself in head*

I meant the WC forum was dead..... not the whole thing

To be honest, personally, ive lost interest in forums in general
Any information i want (outside of training) pretty much on youtube, google etc and, in regards to WC, pretty much everything has been said already

I really only come past here for bit of a laugh, at Hendrik mainly, and to touch base with some of the old members that seem to have moved on anyway (anerlich where are you?!?!)

Never been that much of a poster, though love a heated debate, but all the same its sad to see this forum taking its last breath

I'm sure many of them are there on Martial talk. Hendrick almost certainly lurking there, and although I haven't seen the broken chinglish posting, that may just have been an affectation.

Certainly lots of knowledge about past goings on here from people with names I don't recognise there. Loads of stupid arguments and trolls. Pretty standard wing chun forum!

Hendrik makes Youtube videos about "friends asking him questions recently" that just happen to be current topics on that forum. But he can't post on it since he was banned, so he goes to Youtube with his "friends' questions". He's obviously lurking there.

And they won't say who they are because they are likely only a couple people using multiple accounts. :rolleyes:

Hey Glenn!

I spend most of my online time on Facebook these days. Get more of a mix of stuff there. I train and teach BJJ mostly these days, though I'm still doing my WC forms most days (did some this morning).

I follow a few Wnig Chun people who invited me to their groups, like Phil Redmond, Suki Gosal and Kenton Sefcik (hope I spelled Kenton's surname right :p

I think things changed for me after the final hypefest when Hendrik hooked up with the Snake/Crane guys and then it all came down in a heap of vituperation Humpty Dumpty style.

Frankly, I think most topics have been done to death, been resurrected, and done to death again, several dozen times over.

Andrew Nerlich on Facebook if anyone wants to stay in touch.
