Just read some topics over at Bullshido this morning. As I said before, it's a pretty funny site. It does get a bit much sometimes with the piling on, seems like a witch hunt at times. I see opinions (often decenting) on the value of various styles treated as fact, like BBT. Many styles get savaged it seems in favor of almost stock answers in muay thai and bjj. A styles value in not measured solely by it's use in the ring, I always ask, best, by what standards.
There's also a really long topic about Choi Kwang Do and it's founder. Personally, I've trained in the style, met the man and several other instructors and I find both the style and him pretty cool. It was an interesting read, but it's not gonna change my opinion on the style or the man, I learned a lot that I value from it.
It's pretty fun over there, but for me it sometimes takes days to get back to a topic here and on K4L, I can imagine adding another site to that list. But as I said before, just like this place, it has it's value and serves it's purpose. Layout could be smoothed out though, to my eyes it seems cluttered.
