Yeah, you're probably right - they probably don't know what you know. You seem to have some pretty unique material. But nobody is attacking you here. It's the other way around.

Bodyworks and why are you hating everyone and attacking anything most anyone says that doesn't follow you?
I tried to find out on your profile page who you trained under, your teachers, your style(s) to understand why your always on the offensive, and came up empty. Your style of aggressive argumentation is reminisce of a well polished conservative political talking head or commentator. You remind me of the likes of Bill O'Reilly, Rush Limbaugh, Ann Hart Coulter at the peak of their popularity. I don't understand why you come out swinging and shrouded in mystery, in the shadows. I don't see the cause. Can you help me understand and explain all this aggression and mystery?

Maybe I need to rephrase not to sound rude.
Bodyworks/Dan(?) you sound so angry and argumentative all the time. You seem to tell other people, in a nutshell, they "suck" at their art, and their art "sucks" why? You are like at odds with everyone except those who are in your crew. I can't say, you are angry with "everyone" which wouldn't be true, but allot of people.
I am making an observation. Your argumentative style of what I read here in strategy and tactics are reminisce of a professional conservative aggressive political talking head or commentator. People who exemplify the style am thinking about are Bill O'Reilly, Rush Limbaugh, Ann Hart Coulter's style at the peak of their popularity. One such tacit of that political argumentation style is to "come out swing," attacking the other guy, and thus their credibility. A tacit I see in your posts.
Is all of this a simple matter of me just misreading your posts? To help me find out, I viewed your profile. It was empty. You are an enigma in this regard. There is no information on your teacher(s) and your style(s). Not having basic information a place so easily accessible adds to the mystery of the why in your strong aggressive posting style, and why?
I hope you don't think my observations and asking for information are unreasonable. I am reading this thread, and if I am to give your opinion any credibility I need information about you.

IMHO it does make a small but noticeable difference. No problem with asking questions -- it's how they do it is what matters... RSF has been compared to a bar numerous times, and some of the dynamics are indeed similar. Some random guy walking into a bar one night and starting to use a bit of a "tone" with some others who have known each other for perhaps many years, is likely to be "questioned" back (or worse, depending on the neighborhood the bar is in), and I don't see how a little mocking along those lines would bring everyone down... Just one guy -- if even that.
A response to such "mocking" will typically help see what they're made of, and that way everyone gets to know each other a bit better.
Ah Louis seems to have responded quite well, looking back at his earlier post and rephrasing it in a calmer and much more reasonable and non-confrontational manner. Good on him.
