I think you missed my point. My point is that you say that you are not in good standing...so what. Or are you just upset at something that apparently happened between you that is stopping you in your search for knowledge? [/QUOTE]
You act like he has cornered the market on martial arts knowledge. I can find the same, if not better, some place else. So, why would I hand my hard earned money to someone I don't agree with? If you choose to, go a head. I'm not stopping you.

Your post above just sounded juvenile.[/QUOTE]
Sorry bro but you are the best example of juvenile I have seen on this board in a while. So far you've posted 6 messages: 4 of them in defense of Pantzi's video and 2 here defending Pantzi. Most of them aimed at me. It is obvious that you have no real knowledge to share on this topic and have just come hear out of spite. That is juvenile.

It is funny...before my brother completed his anger management class, he would respond in a similar fashion...everything was an attack and everyone was always attacking him. I thank the Lord the he and I can laugh about those days now. Life is too short my friend.

I appologize for the name calling. What I meant, and mean is this...it would have been more respectful of you towards the person who made a simple suggestion, to say "Thanks." All underdog was trying to do was answer your call for help. You did ask a question...they answered. They did not ask for your dirty laundry and things like that. That is what my comment was directed towards.

As far as someone having cornered the market in knowledge...that was never said. You specifically named someone that you had a problem with. I asked you why.

As I said before...life is way too short.

Cheers!

For myself, after being stunned by your hostile reply, I found the 5 Shu points in another source, Montaigue, so that's good, I learned something new. Taboo-nz answered you too and you didn't acknowledge. Then I just read the thread from there. It wasn't about a question! You already know far more about the answer than a person would normally hope to get from a forum post. There are two kinds of questions. One is a request for information. The other seeks an opportunity to show someone how much you already know. Your's was the of the second variety and you've achieved that objective very well. From there on, you've been rude and angry. You've been jabbing at people here who have nothing to do with your discomfort. Why not just e-mail Evan Pantazi on his private e-mail or call him and discuss the issue up front and come to some kind of gentlemanly resolution or truce? Try it even if it has failed in the past. Your anger has taken on a life of it's own that probably exceeds the original provocation.

This thread has strayed from it's original topic. The original question has been answered to some extent but since everyone would rather discuss kuma's desire to not look to Pantazi for the information instead of the topic at hand i'm closing this thread.

I saw no hostility in any of kuma's responses. If he chooses not to purchase a video by an individual he either does not agree with or as he put "are not in good standing with", that’s his choice. The name was thrown out there and kuma responded politely and at no point did he attempt to put Mr. Pantazi in a bad light.
