This is the way I see it. You are a douche because of your attitude brah. You came on here, signed up and proceeded to stir **** because you have some chip on your shoulder.

So for what it's worth, I feel my black belt does mean something as I earned it with blood and pain and actual fighting. The couple of times I've goofed around with wrestlers I got thrashed. Doesn't mean my karate is useless, just means that my grappling is. C'est la vie. Only so many hours in the week.

Yes, I agree there are some tough guys doing traditional karate - some of those Kyokushin guys are really tough, but I think it was sometimes more the man than the style. I was watched a Kyokushin competition once where a yellow belt guy won some kind of open men's division. The announcer told the crowd that 'here was an example of true warrior spirit'. Even though the guy had only trained a little while, he was beating guys with years of experience. He just wouldn't give up. Speaking of the announcer, he was a Kyokushin instructor and at one time coach for the Australian Kyokushin team. In a detailed conversation I had with him, he explained his concept of Budo ... he went along the lines that he would never accept his students cross training in another karate or other form of striking style, but he was more than happy for them to go learn judo for the grappling skills and also kendo. If my memory serves me well, he did not like the idea of them learning aikido though.

Why? Because I'm being honest about what I think? Because my point of view is different? No it is YOU who needs to be quiet. I've done some lurking and from reading your posts on this and other threads, clearly you're a troll - cause you're just down right nasty to people. Don't bother with a reply, you are not worth the time or energy with a come back.

It's the forum you are in that is the source of your frustration. Put up a post in Newbietown and say hello.

Stop posting.

Stop posting ... yes. Am I hypocrite? Yes, I'm being a keyboard warrior by retaliating to posts. Its a pointless ego trip and nothing more. It is too much time and energy spent engaging in discussion on this site. I've had my digital ass kicked.

Its hard to tell what you honestly think. You have switched message quite profoundly on a few points in just 15 posts.
Clarity is the way to avoid this kind of response. Getting to know the enviroment you're in will help you post more clearly. Believe it or not while your running your mouth you can't hear for ****.
He was actually being nice. Hell he addressed you by your name, haven't seen that often.
That was actually advice commonly given and commonly needed.

This is completely wrong. You post your OP anywhere, but newbietown and the same thing would happen. If you lost your cool in newbietown, where people have to be NICER, it would have ended up here anyway.
