Hi all,
I was just wondering if anyone knew why the BJJ Forum is under the Grappling section, but the Judo Forum is down under General forums with the other miscellaneous Q&A's?
Since they are the same, shouldn't they be listed in the same forum subsection?
Having said that, I would like to see the BJJ forum moved down under "International". Since BJJ is a purely Brasilian martial art and anyone who trains in it is training in a Brasilian martial art (whether they hate themselves because of that or not).
Also that way we would have the "RANKED Grappling Forum" totally separate from the BJJ forum and it could be used for all discussion of "no-gi" topics, which should be kept separate from BJJ.
Your thoughts?

[edited because I spelled "Brasilian" the gringo way. I gave myself 100 pushups and 500 abdominals as punishment]
What, you think the third time is a charm with this troll attempt..? ttb...
Actually, this is one of the most straight forward and respectful posts I can remember from Luke Beston in a long time.
If this was the kind of stuff Luke Beston posted all the time, I don't think anyone could ever accuse him of trolling.
Luke Beston, any plans to train with judoka Fedor to improve your ground game?
dunno, dork
MasonJar is correct.
I don't think I've seen you on the UG before.
Welcome, my friend.
Luca.
Welcome, MasonJar.
You're much better off here.
BJJ, as it were, relates directly to ranked grappling.
Judo on the otherhand, is not.
lol @ "dork"

Well, he has a brown belt. I guess it depends on your definition of "good"
LMAO@his new Screen name.
Your bugged out Beston.
I like Beston.
Good questions Luka!
Luke is DEEP!
TTT for Luke
I think it's because the BJJ forum is "sponsored" .... and I also think an intelligent fellow like you knew that before you made your post.
Perhaps it should be placed under the OtherGround/TapOut Forum, since training in so devastatingly effective a South American art almost guarantees all but the most homely a ludicrously hot Brasilian girl friend/fiancee/wife, of which pictures would more appropriately posted there.
I love BJJ and obviously luca you do as well, most likely even more so. Why then do you constantly create threads that cause controversy and animosity toward the art you love.
It's best to promote the sport and create harmony, hence making people love the sport more and appreciate the Brazilian culture. You seem to have a knack of creating friction.
Take care.
Mrs. Gracie Beston cracks me up. While I have never met or spoken to him, I'd be willing to bet he's actually fun to sit down and have a beer with.
rene.r,
Thanks for the suggestion, my friend, but I think the no-gi (ie. non BJJ) forum would be more appropriate to be placed anywhere near the OG. That way people would probably get more reponses to their questions about shaving their balls.
"...I think it's because the BJJ forum is "sponsored" .... and I also think an intelligent fellow like you knew that before you made your post..."
There are sponsored forums under the OtherGround subsection also, such as TheGreek.com WageringGround and TapouT Bad For The Sport.
There's no reason why sub forums can't be shuffled around to be ordered more logically.
