Personnel
gollark: <@665664987578236961> I think people's problem with it is more that quality of instruction can vary a lot, there is often not good sparring with resistance, there's a lack of competitions, it hasn't demonstrated that it works consistently in MMA competitions, there's an overemphasis on "deadly" techniques and aggressiveness, and that you can't really reliably defend against knives, multiple people or guns.
gollark: Also apparently a gecko expert.
gollark: Oh, *that*. We created that back in 2074 for precisely this sort of scenario.
gollark: Ha. Like we obey *time* any more.
gollark: Or how many are deliberately cloaked.
