What do you think about it? Are the rules bullshido?

From the Zero Idiot Tolerance Announcement:

Some of the things that will be earning insta-bans (for varying periods of times):

1. Starting shitty threads. We're tired of seeing posts that are nothing more than a line or two of text accompanied by a link. We're not here to do your thinking for you, post your own thoughts on the subject you wish to discuss if you want feedback on them. If it's worthy of posting a new thread about, then it's worth enough time for you to type a paragraph or two. Which leads us to...

It's still point sparring. So thumbs down.

Lots of videos of training, some good, some average, several not very impressive.

It would have been nice to see vids of actual fights.

Cmon now man.. Would you like to fight with a chest protector and booties or without them. More punching involved and it's obviously a legit league.

If they're interested in testing themselves, why not host kickboxing events and encourage their students to enter others, right? They don't have to be "Muay Thai" rules or anything. They should just use the most open ruleset they are comfortable with.

Seems like that would be a much better plan to me.

MistaKickz: You didn't "piss me off," I was just trying to explain to you how things work around here. We like well-thought out commentary. Sadly, we are not getting a lot of that, hence the creation of the "Zero Idiot Tolerance" policy.
