nice post snake what it comes down to is one simple point that i fail to understand. say for example, i trained in art x. I like art x and it seems to like me. over time i become aware of art y. It doesn't seem quite the same as my beloved art x. i learn a bit about it and decide it isn't for me, i don't agree with its training methodology, so i carry on training in art x. and thats it. what possible benefit comes into my life to spend my precious seconds worrying about the quality of training in art y? i couldn't give a toss. In the end it doesn't matter, some people will always be interested in art y and for all i know, could have it nailed, for them art y is just what they need. who am i to judge? how would i know? i am not them. some people don't 'get' the whole ninpo thing, and thats cool with me. I don't give a hoot if you get it or not. It makes no difference to my life whatsoever. oh and just to close; still no vids of the detractors training forthcoming yet then?
Hands up who thinks Taff is currently working on his witty reposte which will, no doubt, consist of the words: "What, no, you are"
