  3. Before Shaolin there was India.

    Sarcasm that takes up more then one page
  4. Before Shaolin there was India.

    The only way to survive in the world of kung fu was not to die, and many styles challenged each other until we got what we have today. The Shaolin temple was constantly under attack from people like that until one day they found a way to fight. Then they called the local masters and the mix of all that became Shaolin. Many Chinese martial arts are rooted in Shaolin system because of what came into it and what came out of it, but it had to start somewhere. Oh and I'm supposed to tell you that that's trolling
  5. Before Shaolin there was India.

    No, he just taught them the basics Then one day one monk left the Shaolin temple and saw a crane fight a snake, a typical story that is also sometimes part of Wing Chun and many other legends for some reason. That's how tai chi was invented, a style that is specifically made to fight the strong Shaolin monks who dominated the kung fu world. Another lineage that got mixed into what would become tai chi was a family that would murder prisoners in different ways to find how to break a person, many people died until something came out of it but not many like talking about that story.

  22. What are the moderators doing?

    Old style as in, not using the warning system But most people don't even know we've had one so lets forget about it Cruising the forums looking over threads, reading the reports, confronting troublemakers. Making a thread in the mod forum about the member or bumping an old one, that includes the reports aimed at the member or making a thread in the reports section of the mod forum. Reports are organised by thread so when one thread has many reports, the new thread is made in the reports section while discussions about members are in member logs. Explaining in the new thread the action the mod is going to take, listening to the feedback. Finally, step #9000 Take action.
