Shit, did I just date myself there?
You speaking from experience?Go placidly amid the noise and haste,
and remember what peace there may be in silence.
As far as possible, without surrender,
be on good terms with all persons.
Speak your truth quietly and clearly;
and listen to others,
even to the dull and ignorant;
they too have their story.

Doesn't matter. You're leaving your school because you're going to college, so that means you're going to be back visiting in the summer no doubt practicing more nonsense. While I hope it doesn't happen to you unless you really want it, if you end up back in your home town after graduation, you're going to be back at that school.Originally posted by FriendlyFire View Post
That's why so many bullies are so harsh. The bad feelings people get from the shitstorms in here about crappy training are what keep you from regressing. I seriously got booted out of my (Isshinryu) school a couple of years ago because of the review I posted on this very site. Until that bad thing happened, I stayed knowing it wasn't my best option and bargained with myself. "Well, they do pressure points, but I don't, so it's okay. Well, they only do 30 minutes a month of groundfighting, but that's because we're just learning the basics, so it's not crappling..." ad nauseum.
Your "hard" point sparring was point sparring. Your "hard" continuous point sparring was point sparring. As long as you still feel good about doing it you're missing the point.
And as someone already mentioned, thread drift is a fact of life in YMAS, and 1.2 is coming along nicely. You're next in line.Comment

Final point of business:
1point2, are you still an instructor? I see you still have the tag.Comment

I take it where you are going with this is that you want 1.2's tag revoked? While we're at it let's remove all the amateur fighter tags from people who have stopped fighting... its just a fucking tag. Tags do not define you on this site, if they did you would have one which says "Whiney Bitch".Originally posted by Cy Q. Faunce View PostLast edited by Sang; 7/08/2009 6:29am, .Comment

In fact, no. You and BomberH can shut the fuck up now. I don't think that is how the tag works, anyway. I think it is for having been an instructor, whether or not one is an instructor now.Originally posted by Sang View Post
I'm just wondering if he still wants the tag. I'm not sure how he feels about the whole thing.Comment

Look, I'll cut to the chase and stop the idiotic speculation:
I'm a wiki administrator. Some of Bullshido's instructors are listed on a page in the wiki: http://www.bullshido.org/Category:Bullshido_Instructors
If you're an instructor, you might want to make yourself a page on the wiki under your username. At the end of that page, put the following tag on a line by itself:
[[Category:Bullshido Instructors|1point2]]
No, the category doesn't signify people who teach bullshido; it signifies Bullshido members who are also instructors. Omega's on the list, as are many other respected members.
This is not mandatory. I'm just trying to improve the wiki. If you plan to keep the tag, and I know of no reason why you should not, please consider putting up such a page.Comment

Bullshido is about exposing fraud and bullshit. It isn't about bullying people. Poor show to kick a man whilst he's down. That sort of behaviour is only allowed in Japan (e.g. Pride)!Comment

Point of note:
The Instructor tags are designated to show authority on a subject by proving to Staff you are actively instructing in the designated stylefield, so one might take said advice provided by a "tagged Instructor" as somewhat reliable, the "arguing from a point of authority" line bandied about frequently.
If Staff determines the tag should or should not stay is a relevant point as 1.2's stylefield currently shows, if memory serves, former Isshinry and current Judo and BJJ or MMA, leading one to possibly believe he is an instructor of one or both or all.
