Thread: Is Master Pel Typical ?

  1. #1

    Is Master Pel Typical ?

    I approach this subject with caution as I do not wish to be "memorialized" in an essay, or on a website. I'm just curious. Is Master Pel typical of the current breed of westerner pursuing the CMA? What a hard lesson for those who nourished, and taught him their art, and allowed him into their lineage. They would have to be noble men to allow themselves to again be open with their knowledge, once they've nursed a viper at their breasts. Let us learn from this.

    One ungrateful man injures all who need assistance.

    Good post. He is one of a kind IMO, but I have never met him personally. His attitude is certainly not typical in my experience! My teachers would have nothing to do with someone with his attitude! But my teachers are a lot different than some others so who can say?!

    I understand what you mean. I often think: what makes Sifu Lee still accept german students?
    He get betrayed not only this time but several times later ...

    So itīs my wish to erase some of the bad feelings Sifu Lee must have, when thinking about german students!

    How many identities does a Troll need?
    Didn't think I knew did you??
    I know a lot of things.
    You won't like me in person either.
    Confused?? Don't be.

    WTF?! The guy is a mantis instructor but if you're not talking directly about the art it can't be in the forum?!

    For fear of being gassed. I will say that "allegedly, this guy I know who studies mantis and at one time liked to post on the northern mantis forum has had most of his threads shut down because of outsiders coming in and taking over the threads". So instead of blocking those users from posting the threads full of useful information, the thread just gets shut down completely. Even though it states no where on the board what is specifically suppose to be talked about, you would guess that if it has to do with mantis in some way it would be okay. But it's not, and you have to word everything correctly to state that you are talking about mantis... "allegedly" speaking of course and this is this guy I know who is saying this.................. not me.............. seriously.............it's not me............... bai I swear............for real.
    To some I have little character value. My friends know the truth. Guess which of the two I give two shiats about.

    DISCLAIMER: Everything said by me in my posts should be taken with a grain of salt. All of my comments are mostly written in a sarcastic, juvenile manor. Any attempt at actually taking offense to what is said by me in my posts will be the sole responsibility of said reader.

    LOL, why do I feel like I'm partly to blame?

    7* that is funny.. Well here's my view on that. You and I have always had constructive discussions about what we do. I hold no ill will towards you or your views. I don't think either of us are wrong in thinking the way we do, we just differ a little in our opinions. So when those conversations invite others in that really aren't giving any input that is useful to the conversation than block them not the thread.... Well that's my 2 cents and we all know what that is worth. Especially since the american dollar is about as useful as a the peso now a days.

    Dang it!

    Gigi, our publisher, was lurking in this forum and just demanded to know who Master Pel was. So she made me read this whole thread to tell her the answer. Like I know. Who the hell is Master Pel? Fu-Pow, you hit the nail on the head, man. Maybe we should kick this down to the Traditional Chinese Medicine forum next. That would really confuse them down there.

    I think it was moved because it was 100% attacking the character of the guy, possibly a bit racist (though not necesarilly intentional), and gave no details on why he's a bad guy. + there's not anything concerning his martial arts.

    I don't understand why it was dumped over here rather than just locked like a lot of the other threads though
