    Let us ban red5angel...

    I feel it is in the best interests of the Wing Chun community that we ban the good sir, who goes by the good name of red5angel. Please express your sentiments by voting.
    Love is the answer.

    No, because I actually like what the guy has to say, even if he's quick to want to kill something.

    Crackpot? Maybe, but banned? No.

    Red5angel is a lot of things, but he has not caused any damage. There is no malice just a lot of misplaced zeal. Overall, it's just an unpleasant voice and opinion.

    I personally don't like it, but banning him is not the answer.

    If you are serious, I vote no.

    He's alright.
    I don't find him offensive.

    I get a bit bored hearing about how great Carl and Ken are, over and over and over and over, but that's not even close to a banning offence.

    Actually, Sabu, I think you, as a frequent deliverer of the snide reply without hard fact to back it up, ought to be more concerned about your own posting style. And hearing about your elephant is as boring as some of r5a's rantings.

    To the good sir, Mr. Anerlich

    I am sorry to say, but that offends both me and my elephant. Oh, and my family and the Shaolin temple.

    I believe an apology is in order.
    Love is the answer.

    Yes, you should apologise to red5angel.

    If it is okay for a mom to sterilize her retarded son, it should be okay to ban an idiot like RedAhole from this board.

    No.

    Red5angel believes strongly in what he's doing and who he's studying with. Dedication, faith, and exuberance are not grounds for banning someone. I think most instructors would jump at the chance to have a group of students with that kind of conviction.

    My sifu would hit me over the head. "Believe in the art, you idiot! Not in me!", he would say.

  14. Yuanfen is correct

    If Carl isn't embarrassed by RedAhole's antics, there's something wrong with him. Some say there's no such thing as negative publicity but I disagree. Who would want a mindless loudmouth for a student anyway, running off about all the half-truths he's managed to grasp thus far in his "training" and forever associating his "knowledge" back to the school's teachings? It suggests a complete lack of discipline at the top, even if Carl is completely innocent.

    RedAhole's incessant and ubiquitous noise has made this board of very little interest or value to anyone seriously interested in discussing Wing Chun.

    I think his belief in the art is hardly in question ... and neither is his belief in his instructors. Still no grounds for banning someone.

    His threads attract a lot of interest and many responses. The nature of this forum makes it difficult to discuss much of anything without some controversy. I guess "value" is a perception of the reader ... far too subjective for me to comment on. Still no grounds for banning someone.

    Red and I are from the same family, and I've talked to him quite a bit off-line. By "conviction", I mean his eagerness to train and take in information. As an instructor, I think a roomfull of students with that kind of willingness, would be infectious. Everyone feeds off of that kind of energy.

    As you said, I hear a bit more than what is "expressed" soley in the threads, so I can understand where you're coming from.
