Description for this Board?

[Zepp]

I was under the impression that "Philosophy and Spirituality in the Martial Arts" was a sufficient description for this board, but arnisador seems to think it needs something more. What do you all think?

[Wmarden]

It seems to cover it for me. It does seem to be slow starting up though.

It dos not mention sport aspect of alot of martial arts?

[chufeng]

JK,

I think 'sportsmanship" may be a suitable topic under this thread...but discussing the "sport" aspects of MA is covered extensively in other threads.

What happened to all of the descriptions previously submitted?

I meant something like this:

Sports and Entertainment
From Bruce Lee to Jackie Chan to Ricky Steamboat, its here. Chat about movies, TV shows, books, magazines, even gasp, pro-wrestling here.

It's the italicized description I mean. We need that.

I think the other discussions occurred in the General forum before this one was created--someone please correct me if I am mistaken.

The other discussions were moved to this forum when it was created. But I guess we never did come up with a concrete description.

Ya know, whatever snappy description we come up with is going to be BS anyways since the forum title is self-descriptive. Why don't you just make something up arnisador and surprise us?

I'll give you something to start with. Use it or change it as you see fit:
Taoism, Buddhism, Martialism, God, Satan, ethics, morality and whatever other beliefs and ideas affect people in their lives as martial artists. It's generally agreed that apathy is a sin, so don't be scared to speak passionately (just be respectful of others).

How 'bout something like the following:

"From the esoteric to the supernatural, this forum is for the deeper side of combat."

I don't know, I'm at work and can't devote a lot of energy to this, but something like that might be an idea.

i like this decription


Anting Anting, Oracion, Indonesian ritual

i think this board will get alot more hits if we change the name to this.

[arnisador]

Any other thoughts on this?
