If someone starts a thread of any subject, and if you can redirect the discussion toward:
- CMA won't work.
- MMA is the best,
- MMA is only sport,
- CMA is for killing.
- ...
that thread may have pages after pages debating and last forever.
The longest threads in any forum are always:
- How much do you hate MMA?
- CMA guys don't know shit.
- Let's attack Bruce Lee.
- Sport fight won't work on street.
- ...
Just look at this so called tradition MA forum. You can see the ratio of TCMA discussion vs. MMA discussion are unbelievable.
http://antimma.com/forums/index.php?board=1.0No matter where you go, you can always find somebody who can turn any diiscussion into "MMA is better than CMA". Do you think this is strange? What happen to the "pure" TCMA discussion?
I was in a Judo forum for a short period of time until some Judo guy said, "You are not even a Judoka, nobody will be interesting in your opinions. Why are you still hanging around here." I wasn't very happy when I left that forum. Now I look at back. That guy may just want to keep that Judo forum "as pure as possible" which is not a bad idea after all. The funny thing is in our TCMA forum, we don't have any BMF who intends to keep our forum "pure" and say, "You are not even a TCMA guy, nobody will be interesting in your opinion. Why are you still hanging around here?"
Crow weep in the dark. Tide bellow in the north wind. How lonesome the world.
