    You switch every other letter which is just annoying as hell and, I know I repeat myself here, totally disrespectful.
    I also don't care that you can read the words, despite having switched letters.
    Doesn't make it a reason not to pay attention.

    You ask question, at the very least have the sense of decency to write properly and re-read your posts.
    Usually I put people like you on ignore, because they're an idiotic annoyance, that's just totally unnecessary.

    I'm sure, I have mistakes in my posts too; I'm sometimes annoyed by myself, when I find them later.
    But I at least try to not let them prevail.
    And I certainly don't blame them, to the way I type, which is, again, just another poor excuse.
    "It's not my fault, it's they way I type."
    Pff! Yes, it is your fault! As you are the one writing the text.


    You don't like English? Post in another forum that uses another language.
    Problem solved.

    But you post here, so post in a way that's not that of...
    Look at what you write, when you write it and correct it then.
    Read the text again before you post it and not after - and correct it then.
    Problem solved.

    I'm sure your English is 100% better than the second languages of 99% of MAP, so I reckon any mistakes you make are allowable :)

    Only response, agree to disagree as there is no argument you will use to make me view my post as a problem. And then i dont run the risk of insulting people and going down a rabbit hole to a dead thread.

    Thanks very much.
    Still enough to learn though, as I noticed after a post by Smitfire :oops::confused::D

    EDIT: In addition, I'm also fully open for corrections, if there are mistakes.
    So please feel free anyone!

    You are insulting people by not caring how you write already.

    The Tos you've agreed to say you have to do it.

    See board game thread. I cannot readily cite back to the ToS, and if i can i would like a link to the full ToS from the old site. (not me being awkward, i jsut generally like the ability to cite back to rules i agreed to) The viewable rules are not the same as the ones before the swap.

    As above, that was my compromise as if i respond defending myself i will probably offend somone. Its easy enough to read, doesnt warrant a comment and its not a issue. You will not convince me contary of any of those latter three, so it would be pointless argument i have actively stated i dont want part in nor did i start.

    (lets face it, you know i am the type of person to defend myself and will respond)

    Be clear. It's not negotiable. You have the option not to post.

    No you do not wish to put any effort into your posting.

    My response to the spelling issue is enclosed in spoilers, open it if you want to read it or continue the argument. Its kind of ranty, but hopefully the thread will go back to its subject matter.

    Comprimise as my personality wont allow me to let it go, but i have decided i will probably do the spoiler tag thing so i dont have to make everyone suffer because of it and then it actually takes the othe party some effort/time to continue it as well. ( i will most likely do this more often now that i know the code)

    Hopefully the next time i come here, somone can tell me the juicy mcdojo secrets. XD

    Its easy to read if you understand English, therefore its clear English. Its nothing to make a issue over. You dotn need to know cryptography to understand the quoted post, you just need to understand English. And same comment as above, there is no argument you will use which will get me to reverse that position thats its clear English by the nature its understandable by somone who understands English and it is English. You can argue its unneeded effort to read it, but in response to a pretty non-issue its uneeded effort to derail a conversation over, or make effort to point out.

    "whichr equired" R is before the space to seperate a new word, easy to read, non issue for a English user.

    "postiion"Goess without saying that two I's does not make this word impossible to decipher.

    "wotn" N and t are switched around, doesnt make it impossble or difficult to read it.

    "fidn" D and N switched around in place, like wise above.

    "soemthing" m and e switched around, repeated comment from above. (one of my commone typing problems)

    "rpobbly" r is before the p in a wrongly spelt probably, same comment above.

    "ina" no space before a.

    I would agree if they are badly spelt and unintelligible, but in that instance all but perhaps one of those are easy to understand. Probbably being spelt like that is how i habitaly spell the word anyway.Of the msitakes, i saw and didnt read over.. Some words i dont know enough to google them or for my Grammar software (which is questionable on this site in highlighting) to give a correction. Phonetic spelling for the win. :p I will come back to this thread once it has returned to its subject matter.

    I didnt expect some form of Spanish Inquisition.

    It was mentioned before and not only by me.
    It's annoying, disrespectful and insulting if you don't put any effort into your posts-

    They not fun reading and wastes time of people who still go through with it.

    I get that you don't care for respect if it's toward others but yourself, but you might want to try it anyway.

    Whereas a whole page of chastising someone for hasty typing is a joy to read. :rolleyes:

    Ah well, it was an interesting thread while it lasted...

    If memory serves Gen. Choi wrote a something like 15 volume work called "The Encyclopedia of Taekwon-do". Original print run copies probably go for hundreds of pounds. I got digital copies online years ago.
    He then did a condensed version. Not sure on the status on that.
    I seem to think, reading Stuart Anslow's books (highly recommended), Choi also wrote some other books too (some including Karate kata from a time when they were still routinely taught in Taekwondo).

    Edit: Looking online a Gen. Choi wrote quite a few books. None of which seem readily available.

    Clear english is not riddled with spelling and grammatical errors, and this post is a tacit admission that you aren't willing to put forth the effort to consistently post in clear english.

    That seems strange for such a popular martial art. Any idea why?

    Using the premise that clear English is easy to understand English, it's clear English for anyone who understands English. Can you honestly tell me and convince me you would sturggle to read the quoted post without confessing to not understanding English or not being a strong English user? I will probably not belive you even if you stated otherwise. (which goes back to my point previously on arguing this and there is no point)

    For the record (and it is relivent) my level of English does not meet nor exceed what is taught in Secondary school, that would be academic. I do however understand English and can communicate with English users effectively. If i can go back and re-read what i type, anyone who understands English should be able to. (using the basis i barely have a secondary school or consistent education in english) I will probbly not exceed this level of English for a while as i ahve previosuly stated i am classically codnitioned to hate Enlgish, i associate the lesson and learning it with bad and avoid it at any oppertunity. I am also by far not Illiterate as i have managed to form a argument.


    Did you purposely make an English error then or was it an accident? Its not that much effort unless you want to skim it, if someone uses vocabulary i dont understand, i take the time to google it or ask them what it meant, if somone uses spelling mistakes and they are easily enough to understand they are not worthy of a comment to correction. You will never make me understand your point of view using what you cited as a problem.

    And naturally my relationship to people i dont know via a online service would be diffrent from real life, i dont go out of my way to make people feel bad nor do i to make them feel good. (latter would be more likely if i did anything)

    You know i am blunt with my text comms and interpretation can be lost same with tone to intended.


    (note, just because i am arguing doesnt mean i dont understand the rules)

    Age mainly I think. They're quite old, out of print, didn't have a big print run in the first place, etc.
    I found somewhere online that you can get PDF's of the original encyclopedia from.
    Printing the whole 15 volume set I think was a Choi vanity project in some ways and not something a modern publisher would reproduce or find financially viable.

    And of course there are better modern books. Stuart Anslow's books micturate on Choi's books in terms of information content, clarity and practical value.

    And am I right in thinking that Choi's books wouldn't 100% represent the practice of any major TKD organisation today?

    PS. micturate: I learnt a new word today! :D
