Yeah I guess I mixed those two, but mma is still a mix of martial arts, Karate being one of them.

I like it, but funny it ain't.

It would have grown back, though it would have itched like crazy.

Oh, don't get me wrong I don't think Karate is the be all end all marital art, but it certainly isn't a "dance routine". My brother would claim that judo is the best martial art, but then again he is a judo instructor so he is a little biased.

Except that mma is not a sport but an organization, the new fledgling mma classes are just a mix of other marital arts.

Well that is not the fault of karate but you teacher, though it probably isn't even his fault. I attended Kyokushin Karate classes and while Katas were learned there was also sparing. But either way noone is going to let a 7 year old fight. If you stayed and applied yourself learned the Katas which teach you form and technique you would have eventually learned to apply that technique in real life. You made a very ignorant statement.

They are mostly the same thigh, but factually you are right.

Wrong time period, judo was the martial art of the samurais.

They bend you over and the whole class paddles your behind(with a paddle) for every centimeter you were off, at least that is how I was thought.

That's how you preform a Kata though. You also need to end it on the same spot you started it.

Piracy or not?
But you just said that we can't quantify how much it harms the publisher, so can you say it would make any difference?
-
Piracy or not?
All it makes me think is that you either haven't read anything I said thus far, or you haven't understood a single thing...
-
Piracy or not?
Then why would you even make that connection, a more accurate statement would then be that I was replying to your strawman...
-
Piracy or not?
Your point being?

Piracy or not?
Because it shows that piracy isn't a reason that a game fails, as seems to be a common misconception in this thread. Oh wanna make a bet?

Piracy or not?
Well we can agree to disagree on that point, it's pointless to discuss ideologies. The newest iteration of SimCity was not pirated for more then a year, because of it always online policy. It did way worse then it's predecessor, to the point where they even tried to move it to an offline platform, at which point, yes it was pirated. I think those two markets are separate. Those who want to pirate it will, those who don't won't. If we somehow magically removed piracy (SOPA?), how much would that change the standings. The biggest question there is how much of those pirated copies are lost sales. There is a reason why free to play games are so popular nowadays, but that is a tangent that would take it's own thread to discuss. You insinuated strongly that they were a big contributor, it was a direct reply to what you said, no strawman at all. Also when those experts are paid by the same companies that have a conflict of interest and use research done/payed for by the same companies, excuse me if I don't swallow what they have to say. That's in the same line of an oil company paying for research on global warming and then having their experts discuss it.
