Ah! But at least THAT can be entertaining!
The point being that as tiresome as it is to read people asking over and over for a visual example, it is just as tiring hearing over and over the theoretical pontifications with ZERO evidence to back them up.
Well, it shouldn't be. It should be expected. Because this is a discussion forum, not a video sharing site, not youtube, and not facebook. And I think people are largely reluctant to go to the effort to provide video because of the way it is more or less "demanded" rather than requested politely...,kind of an "oh yeah! Well prove it!" attitude rather than one of genuinely wanting to know how someone else does something. The other huge factor here is how critical forumites can be. Heck, I've got multiple people taking pot shots at what I post on more than one thread who aren't really even participating in the discussion itself. You really think I would want to put up a video for them to tear apart? If I can't expect to be treated respectfully and politely in a discussion, why in the heck would I put myself in the positon to have my performance openly criticized by these same people? I could be showing the best Wing Chun in the world, but I certainly would not trust any of them to give me accurate feedback or an honest opinion. I might have something I want to show to, say...Paddington, but then I know the bozos would jump in and tear it to shreds. So why would I? THAT, IMHO, is why you don't see people posting videos very often.
I agree that you probably won't be treated with respect if you show a video that, according to some, is NOT WC, since I have seen it happen over and over here, again and again.
Of course, now I MAY be mistaken, but haven't YOU done that as well?
I am asking a sincere question mind you, I am asking have YOU gonna ahead a "teared to shreds" a WC video that someone else has posted?
If so, well...
