2004-10-29 [Lordterrex]: u simply name ur wiki, put in search, and if it isnt taken, u have a blank page to work with
2004-10-30 [Shining light]: or, alternitavely, you could type the name of your wikipage that you want into [ ] brackets, with @wiki before them. Like this: [onelonlyelf's wikipage@wiki]
2004-10-30 [psychopomp]: OR!... i dunno :p
2004-10-30 [Lordterrex]: HEY... everybody who enjoys RPs and Lotr check this out http://helkaer
2005-02-17 [Minotaur Queen]: could ya all take a look at my website and tell me what you think please??? www.promiselan
2005-02-17 [Dwarf Ronin]: Sure thing.
2005-02-17 [Doc_D]: Interesting.
2005-02-17 [Minotaur Queen]: So what do you all think of my stuff?
2005-02-17 [Shining light]: very nice.
2005-02-17 [Minotaur Queen]: Thanks...ya have a favorite item?
2005-02-18 [Shining light]: I like the chair mail stuff. it's all very good... gut perhaps a few more photos in the wodden swords section might be nice, as you have a long list of all the different types, but only two pictures of two types of sword. If you could put a picture or two opf different sword types, like the scimitar, that'd be cool.
2005-02-18 [Minotaur Queen]: I will have pics of each design of axe and sword soon
2005-02-18 [Dwarf Ronin]: That would be cool.
2005-03-17 [Q_Q]: hey all
2005-03-17 [Dwarf Ronin]: Hello my sharp and pointy lovers...
2005-03-17 [Doc_D]: http://www.wee
2005-03-17 [Dwarf Ronin]: How are you guys doing?
2005-03-17 [Doc_D]: er, fine, you?
2005-03-17 [Dwarf Ronin]: I'm doing dandy!
2005-03-17 [Indelible]: The Sword Art Contest 2 i'm finally back commanding the show... advertise our contest with the best of your abilities!
2005-03-19 [psychopomp]: can't... so... tired........z
2005-03-22 [Indelible]: lazy ass
2005-03-22 [psychopomp]: YUP! i also can't draw soo...
2005-04-07 [manwe]: hmmmmmm i also practice a few arts with the sword...... including their forging....
2005-04-08 [Dwarf Ronin]: Thats cool. *drools over Sakabatou I made*
2005-04-12 [Doc_D]: What kind have you forged?
2005-04-13 [Dwarf Ronin]: A Sakabatou, a reversed-blade
2005-04-13 [Shining light]: wow. like to see one of those...
2005-04-15 [Dwarf Ronin]: I will put up a picture soon.
2005-05-03 [Lordterrex]: reverse blade katanas look nice.. but they arent to practical
2005-05-03 [Doc_D]: They are if you want to fight full on with a katana and not kill them.
2005-05-03 [Shining light]: right...and katanas are only meant tp be drawn if someone is to die...if you don't want to kill somene, you can't use a katana on them... According to the Samurai code, of course.
2005-05-03 [Lordterrex]: .......if oyu dont want to kill sumone with your blade... dont give it an edge....
2005-05-04 [Doc_D]: Another interesting idea, but with out an edge a sword is usless, so there in lays the peradox.
2005-05-04 [Lordterrex]: lol.... without an egde a sword isnt a sword... but it is still useful.. and it is still a sword, just less useful
2005-05-04 [Dwarf Ronin]: Mine is very practical and useable....it breaks bones on one side, then cuts through most anything on the other.
2005-05-04 [Doc_D]: You see, while be it, a reverse blade sword is seen as usless, how ever for someone who doesn't want to draw blood it is an esential weapon.
2005-05-04 [Dwarf Ronin]: Yep, I don't like to draw blood, a few broken bones doesn't bother me.
2005-05-04 [Lordterrex]: lol... it makes since.
2005-05-04 [Shining light]: ...indeed...
2005-05-04 [Lordterrex]: did warriors ever actualy use reverse blades
2005-05-04 [Dwarf Ronin]: I know one so far...
2005-05-05 [Doc_D]: Not to my knowledge, or at least it wasn't really a weapon many would brag about having.
2005-05-05 [Dwarf Ronin]: It takes a lot of skill to use one you know...
2005-05-05 [Doc_D]: Well duh, if you use it exactly like a regular katana you'll end up cutting your self up.
2005-05-05 [Lordterrex]: .. thats wouldnt be good..... and a katana is an excellent weapon, why make one that is more difficult to use?
2005-05-05 [Doc_D]: Like I said earlier, it's for those who want to fight but not draw blood, unless you score a full on strike to the head with it, it's a hard weapon to end someone's life with.
2005-05-05 [Lordterrex]: why do you think asian weapons have a much greater fame, and are much more popular than european weapons?
2005-07-27 [manwe]: oh geeeze.... *sigh* ah well...
2005-07-29 [Doc_D]: I feel asian weapons have more fame then others because there's a strange beauty to them, as well as a long history of honor and bravery.
2005-07-29 [Lordterrex]: .... i beielve that the history of honor and bravery is well.. i dont think that there idea of honor was very honorable for the most part... but i agree the weapons are strange and beautiful
2005-07-29 [Dwarf Ronin]: I have a chinese sword. It is very flexible blade... what is it called? It has a awesome wooden sleath.
2005-07-29 [Doc_D]: Sounds like a Tai-Chi sword Bu.
2005-07-29 [Dwarf Ronin]: Well, I got a really good one at the Pawn Shop. It has Chinese Dragon carved into the sleath and yellow string balls hanging off the hilt.
2005-07-29 [Lordterrex]: that sounds awsome, hey have you guys checked out the foto manips i made? i would like you guys to see them, there in my house
2005-07-29 [Doc_D]: Yeah, that's a Tai Chi sword Bu, if it was at a pawn shop I'm not too sure about how good it could be, but then again you can find some jems in places like that. You should take it somewhere to get it's quality checked.
2005-07-29 [Dwarf Ronin]: I have, it is excellent guality condition for use. I'm going to start praticing with it.
2005-07-29 [Doc_D]: Do you know how to use a Tai Chi sword?
2005-07-29 [Dwarf Ronin]: No,,,but I'm going to learning.
2005-07-29 [Doc_D]: I should hope so, Tai Chi sword is a very beautiful art in the way of swordsmenship, but it's also pretty hard, the key thing to remember is that Tai Chi it's self is about the fluid motion of energy, keep that in mind when training with it.
2005-07-29 [Dwarf Ronin]: I will do that...thank you for your advise. I do the same thing when using my Sakabatou.
2005-07-29 [Doc_D]: Another thing that might help in the use of your new weapon Bu, calligraphy.
2005-07-29 [Lordterrex]: like dancing,....
2005-07-29 [Dwarf Ronin]: You know...I might have to try that, and I will. Ketchikan is having a tournment for swordplaying in a 4 months, I think I will entire with my Tai-Chi sword.
2005-07-29 [Doc_D]: Then train hard Bu, and good luck. I've never been big on tournaments my self, my master has always looked down on them since some are just all show.
2005-07-29 [Lordterrex]: thats the purpose of most tournaments, to show off your skill, little honor in showing off.
2005-07-29 [Doc_D]: I know that, didn't say I liked tournaments either.
2005-10-31 [My Chemical Vampire]: I think that's awesome
2005-10-31 [Dwarf Ronin]: What do you mean, you face each other with other swords.
2005-10-31 [Shining light]: that about sums it up. By the way, Wing Chun Butterfly swords form is **supposedly, feel free to correct me) unique in that every singlye action is mirrored in poen-hand combat.
2005-11-01 [Lordterrex]: open hand combat?
2005-11-01 [Shining light]: ja, sorry. late at night.
2005-11-02 [Lordterrex]: so.. your talking about slapping each other?
2005-11-02 [Doc_D]: Terrex, you should be slapped for that. Open hand combat is fighting with out use of a fist, most of it is redirects and throws, a defensive style.
2005-11-02 [Dwarf Ronin]: Pretty much, yes.
2005-11-02 [Lordterrex]: like wrestling.... i wrestle...why would y6u slap me?.. slap boxing is a very cultural thing.. -_-
2005-11-02 [Doc_D]: Not really, think more along the lines of tai-chi. That's what open hand is. Wrestling is ground fighting, meaning you force your enemy to the ground and into submission.
2005-11-02 [Dwarf Ronin]: I use my hands to parry and redirect the flow.
2005-11-02 [Lordterrex]: only stupid wrestlers, or very strong wrestlers force there opponent down.. you need to trick him down.. thats the ticket
2005-11-02 [Doc_D]: The point is, wrestling, while being a usful style of combat, is not open hand, nor is slapping someone considered open hand.
2005-11-02 [Dwarf Ronin]: Exactly.
2005-11-03 [Lordterrex]: wrestling is an extremely useful form of martial arts... its to bad so many people look down upon it.
2005-11-03 [Doc_D]: I try to encorperate some ground fighting into my style. Since I'm a big guy I can't exactly rely on my legs ya know.
2005-11-03 [Lordterrex]: i agree....
2006-04-11 [Morganath]: Swords are one o the simpler weapons in me opinion...
2006-04-11 [Lordterrex]: yes. beautifully simple my friend. one step above the spear, right behind the.. umm... musket? yes. musket. but, the training a good swordsmen under goes really isnt that simple. the weapon lower than the sword, the club, or even the body. yes, the body, has become an icon of pop culture, the ability to fight with your body alone. a sword makes the fighting much easier. but, for it to be easier, it takes training. we just love swords. ^_^
2006-04-12 [Shining light]: indeed. even though the shaolin rank the sword second in their order of best weapoons, underneath the spear. Spears are cool, but can be bad in tight corners.
2006-04-12 [Doc_D]: Simplicity is just a state of mind, for the weapon is only the extension of the warrior. If the warrior has no skill, no instinct and no true drive for the spirit of the thing then the weapon will not be wielded as simplly as one would think.
2006-04-12 [Lordterrex]: my thoughts exactly...
2006-04-12 [Morganath]: Yeah but for me the sword except samurai and ninjai swords are simple for me...I can't wield a bloody spear or bow for the life of me...I'm also pretty good with the axe...
2006-04-14 [Lordterrex]: ... rock on!. good thing your in the sword masters area eh?
2006-04-18 [Morganath]: yeah i just need to learn the samurai sword put eastern and weastern combat stiles together and in my opinion ye would be unstopable...
2006-04-18 [Doc_D]: That would be a lot harder then you think. The way of the katana involves flowing strikes that slash while western style consists of pretty much swinging and cleaving. The deferent swords are made and smithed for deferent forms of use.
2006-04-18 [Lordterrex]: another thing, about kendo. if you do authentic kendo, its insane. firstly, ill say half the stuff you see in movies is bullshit. its incredibly difficult to block a sword attack with a katana, its curved egde causes the other blade to slide on it rather clumsily. to combine both eastern, and western. i think a western sword would be your best bet. something with a straight edge, although fround upon by the common populace, you will find its better. if you wanted to combine both methods.
2006-04-18 [Shining light]: Of course it is, LordT~ movie-fighting is designed first and forwemost to look good. Traditional mnartial arts styles weren't designed to look good, but to be effective. Which is why you'll never ever see traditional Wing Chun on the screen.
2006-04-18 [Lordterrex]: lol. agreed.
2006-04-19 [Morganath]: Well essentially what i meant was the fighting stile and speed of the Samurai but the more barbaric thinking of the western...west
2006-04-19 [Morganath]: And I do perfer the Western swords so maybe just the speed of the samurai would be better... Sorry for the double talk i didn't feel like editing the first one....
2006-04-19 [Lordterrex]: i tottaly agree man.. ending the first one.. is always hard. its interesting what we consider barbaric.. isnt it?
2006-04-20 [Morganath]: Well by the true defanition of civilized no one is truely civilized...
2006-04-20 [Lordterrex]: so why call anyone barbaric?
2006-04-20 [Doc_D]: It is impossible for someone to find the spirit of the thing with out absolute devotion, it is not something that can be achieved by a hobby.
2006-04-21 [Lordterrex]: .... that seemed kind of, random. but, ok. rock on doc
2006-04-21 [Doc_D]: Give it some thought, you might realize it goes along perfectly with what we were talking about.
2006-04-21 [Lordterrex]: ... are you talking about nothing being barbaric? i mean... in a sense, if you focus on anything, you will find it has perfect harmony with how things are. is that what you are saying?
2006-04-22 [Doc_D]: Uh, no, that wasn't even close, but feel free to try again, meditate on it then get back to me.
2006-04-22 [Lordterrex]: well, i still think nothing is barbaric.. -_- provided it is concentrated on hard enough
2006-04-25 [Morganath]: Well everything is chaotic and orderly neutral is the world, If something is to orderly no true freedom, if to chaotic no peace maintain a balance....And I think Doc was talkin' about the spirit and medatation of the sword to become one with the blade like the samurai and european barbarians believed(spelling)
2006-04-25 [Lordterrex]: that could be it as well.
2006-04-27 [Dwarf Ronin]: Hello there guys.
2006-04-29 [Morganath]: hey...
2006-04-29 [Doc_D]: Yo
2006-04-29 [Morganath]: So how is everyone this day?
2006-04-30 [Lordterrex]: ehh... emotions are a thing created by something i dont understand. -_-... ok.. thats a lie. with an up there is a down... SWORDS!!
2006-05-16 [Lady of Lore]: wow, this stuff is really good! Mind if I refernce stufff from you guys to my wiki class [Song of Blades]?
2006-05-16 [Indelible]: reference... i guess that would be fine... i really need to update the pages tho
2006-05-17 [champagnebommer 77]: Oh, wow. I haven't really been an active part of any of this for a long time. It's cool to see it's still going.
2006-05-17 [Indelible]: haha its kinda sad the "Leaders" are the ones that stop being active lol! but dont worry! i'm back everyone!
2006-05-18 [Lordterrex]: reference
2006-05-19 [Dwarf Ronin]: I'm 19 finally!!!!!
2006-05-19 [Lordterrex]: WOOO!!!!
2006-05-20 [champagnebommer 77]: Sweet! I wish I was older, but I guess I'm cool with 16 for now.
2006-05-20 [Doc_D]: Heh, 21 punk suckers, I'm legal age to do what ever I feel like.
2006-05-21 [Lordterrex]: ...... except kill people. -_- im legal to do that though
2006-05-21 [Doc_D]: Are you sure about that, I've never said anything about my self personally, only a small portion of my philosophies.
2006-05-21 [Lordterrex]: hmm... lol.. i was kidding.
2006-05-23 [Indelible]: lol I'm a teacher in the academy now! i teach in the song of blades! bout swords and stuff! so i'm gunna need some material to write about! if yall can help that would be great!
2006-05-23 [Doc_D]: Well the most important thing I could recomend would be the mentallity of a true master swordsman.
2006-05-23 [champagnebommer 77]: Yeah, mentality. Like the kind that illegal substances give you. :P
2006-05-24 [Lordterrex]: for shame il tackhead. lol
2006-05-24 [Indelible]: lol drugs are bad... but i cant complain.. i drink loads!
2006-05-29 [Lordterrex]: .......hmmm.. im pondering.
2006-05-30 [champagnebommer 77]: Darnel descibed me as, "the little baby Jesus." Because I slightly resemble the traditional imagery of Jesus and I was calm and relaxed at his party, while so many others were just angry drunks.
2006-05-30 [Lordterrex]: ..... HAHAHAHAHA
2006-05-30 [Dwarf Ronin]: I have to ask you guys, what do you call a sword with a little blade that pops out at the hilt of the sword?
2006-05-30 [Indelible]: retractable lol! and to be a sword thats gotta be a long ass hilt! its more or a dagger probably...
2006-05-30 [Dwarf Ronin]: I mean is that this sword has a dagger at the end of the hilt. It a katana shaped.
2006-05-30 [Morganath]: yer talkin about the katanna on versus aren't ye?
2006-05-31 [Lordterrex]: it would be a sword, with a retractible dagger for the pommel. i dont beileive theres any proffesional name for it. but. ehh, who knows.
2006-05-31 [Indelible]: i havn't heard of anything like in in any professional setting...
2006-05-31 [Morganath]: I know their is a blade like that in the japanese movie Versus with a small blade coming out the hilt of the blade...its not retractable in that movie so i wouldn't want that blade...
2006-05-31 [Doc_D]: I agree with Morganath, a weapon like that would be more dangerous to the weilder then the enemy. If you're not careful you'd end up cutting your own wrists in battle.
2006-05-31 [Indelible]: true true... not a very functional idea... its more for... show... hang it on your wall thats all its really good for
2006-06-01 [Lordterrex]: extreme training with any weapon would make it functional.. but, seeing as the possibility of using both the dagger, and the swod at the same instant is unlikely.. its a pointless and all too showy blade for my taste.
2006-06-01 [Indelible]: blah! i dont really care! just carry a tanto! it works better and is a hell of alot faster!
2006-06-01 [Lordterrex]: i agree.. except i would carry a dagger. double edged is nicer when your stabbing somone in the back. dont get me wrong..a tanto is kick ass.. daggers more my style though. of course.. when it comes to practicality.. i would go with a .45 caliber. :p.. its not a sword though
2006-06-01 [Indelible]: yea i like my 12guage... its sweet
2006-06-02 [Dwarf Ronin]: No, there is a complete hilt and katana, but there is a break in the hilt where a seprate dagger pops out; not loosely, but firmly come out.
2006-06-02 [Morganath]: I still wouldn't want it. Just get a boot dagger and a knife at yer side for extra protection...
2006-06-04 [Alexxei]: Hey guys; I got an idea about to make a Sword Drawings Contest, what do u think about it?
2006-06-04 [Lordterrex]: .. i think we already did it.. but we could do it again!
2006-06-04 [Doc_D]: Lol, if only I still had any thing close to artistic ability. But still that does sound like fun.
2006-06-05 [Lordterrex]: still?.. so you had it once?
2006-06-05 [Doc_D]: Hah, sadly yes.
2006-06-05 [Lordterrex]: wow.. what happened man?
2006-06-05 [Doc_D]: A class called Advertisment Design, I quickly learned to hate drawing for a year or 3.
2006-06-05 [Indelible]: yes i have had 2 other sword art contests... and i will probably make a new one soon... or if any of you want to make it you can...
2006-06-05 [Dwarf Ronin]: I want to enter, I'm good at drawing
2006-06-05 [Indelible]: BANG! Contest up and running! yea yea! The Sword Art Contest
2006-06-06 [Alexxei]: kool name for a contest, so when we can beging it?
2006-06-06 [Indelible]: whenever we have enough contestants we will start voting so tell everyone about the contest!
2006-06-06 [Alexxei]: ok man!
2006-12-22 [The Dizzy Raven]: Hello *bows respectfully before all of you*
2006-12-22 [Alexxei]: Hello Lady Illadriel ;)
2006-12-22 [The Dizzy Raven]: This place is pretty cool
Thanks for telling me about it
2006-12-23 [The Dizzy Raven]: Hello ^^
2006-12-23 [Doc_D]: So, what kind of style do you practice?
