    When are we going to stop this?

    How many threads do we need to argue "TCMA vs. MMA"? Have we said everything that we want to say. Is there anything new that we have not yet covered?

    Do we run out of meaningful discussion subjects in this forum?

    I say we shut down every thread that goes that way.

    problem is, every time a new guy joins the forum, he has to bring this up.
    Without being total dix like at bullshido, we can politely him the situation and let him know how to access the archived threads.

    I propose a discussion on the pros and cons of mexican wrestling as a legitimate fighting style for MMA.

    I'll start.

    Don ' t waste your energy , no matter how much you try to stop a thread from going to far and stop it . Some one will start it again . The best thing to do is not to respond to it . And see what happens .

    Popular speech never needs protection.... critical speech. Ideas that challenge.... those are the ones that need protection and should be welcomed.

    Contrary to my accusers.... my posts are on topic. My posts are about Kung Fu. 100%.... they're just not flattering.

    To compare.... I would use pro football to highlight the fantasies of flag football enthusiasts who somehow proliferated that they possess higher ability, skill and physical attributes than those in the NFL.

    I would point out: That if they want to be the best football player they could be they should follow the example, the training methods of the best universities and pro teams..... but that's crazy talk. That has nothing to do with flag football. They would have nothing to gain by learning explosive, catching, tackling angle drills by people who make a living doing these things.

    Spare us the pariah act.

    Nothing you say is original or as lofty as you think. Every single one of your salient points has already been discussed ad nauseum and anyone here who trains for real even a little bit is already of conscious of it.

    You're like a constant repeat of the same three posts from a sub-literate bullshido thread from 2003.

    Is that really all it takes to glorify your own ego? Regurgitate a few unsophisticated arguments that people worked out a decade ago and all of the sudden you're Thomas Jefferson.

    Its not an ego. I believe he has a brain tumor that makes him believe he, HE, would bring reality to the TCMA world. As if HE is the great white hope......TOO LATE. Kung Fu is on the uprise and it isn't due to Mr Pinas....not even in the slightest. That tumor prevents him the video proof so many people keep handing him. I personally think MMA doesn't want him so he has to come here.

    I know what your saying YKW,

    I say we add an entire 'Kung Fu Vs. MMA' forum and put it at the top of the list. That way it all gets put in there and the 'Kung Fu' forum can be more in depth.

    Seriously.

    I think we should have a link to trollshido.
    It would be like a trap door.
