Hey Ricardo,
Nobody abandoned you, how many times have hands been extended to you in friendship? Mine? Tess? Mr. Conatser? Just those few of us? Instead of always complaining about how mistreated you are, do/say something positive. I bet you have said something along those lines to your high school students. C'mon man, you are a professional teacher, teach.

I'm not complaining, rarely do I do that cause I don't believe in telling others what to do. I'm just teasing, bantering as always, even the "Queen of Pain" can see that!

Too many other people like to come here and fight, I don't .

Have at it then!!!

PS - Ricardo, are YOU feeling the need to start a Tracy room and Moderate it?

Who, me? Yeah, it'll be a place to scream if Tess gets ahold of me.

Moderator? No, I can't see myself being a boss here. This outfit is MOB controlled, and I ain't a "made man."

Flame and Throw mudd
grummble/gripe....etc...
maybe we could create a forum just for them.

Come On guys, this is really petty.

Can't we get along better than this? I know it's not a real community, it's just the internet and highly synthetic...

So i went and did it on my other forum instead.

And I contributed to it, for which I apologize. Back to topic, I think a Tracy's/Traco/Chinese Kenpo MT forum would be great. I reserve the right, however, to lurk in the EPAK forum from time to time. :lurk:

 

[Seig]

The only things we want to keep out of the EPAK forum are BS, Flaming, disrespect and trolls.

Someone just looking to cause trouble, usually by saying something that will provoke an outraged or exaggerated response:

The original troll is generally considered to be the message cross-posted between a cat lovers' group and a cooking group, "How do you cook a cat?", ostensibly looking for actual advice on cooking cats but actually looking for the cooks to produce serious answers that the cat lovers would howl about.

Many trolls now consider themselves USENET Performance Artists, posting as a form of "artistic expression". :shrug:

A troll for the Kenpo forum: I heard Al Tracy taught Ed Parker everything he knew about the martial arts. Is that true?

 

[marshallbd]

Can you tell me the differences in Tracy's and Parkers Kenpo. I thought Tracy's came out of Parkers Teaching. Please forgive me If I asked a stupid question but thats how you learn right?

 

[Blindside]

I happen to like this discussion on the topic:

http://www.kenporaw.bravepages.com/Paper2.htm

But yes, the Tracy's did come out of Mr. Parkers system. The forms through Long 5 are the same, or are very similar. Many of the Sets were a later development and are not used in the Tracy System. The Tracy system includes forms from other systems, some of which were taught by Mr. Parker such as Book Set (Panther) or Tiger and Crane.
