DQ is all part of Aikido. Proper fighting is virtually impossible - you're too close together and when you combine the turnframes & gravity non-grappling moves aren't a valid way of fighting.

I see no problem in DQing someone to win. If they're stupid enough to try & kick then they deserve to land on their ass when you sweep their leg. A lot of the fun is countering what your opponent does, use their weight against them etc.

If people don't like DQ then play without the ring & no DQ, you'll soon see that it's not as fun flapping around on the floor trying to rub-off on the other guy for extra points.

<Erf> SkulFuk: gf just made a toilet sniffing joke at me
<Erf> i think
<Erf> i think i hate you
you are wrong skulfuk, if both players figth that way you will find a very stupid figths, it looks like gay! in big dojo the time is enougth to get other guy out. and then it will be a good thing.
i remember i made 34 streak on aikido when i was black and it wasnt a shovel. but if was a push.
small dojo - who fails lose!
big dojo - who is better win!
( of course there is allways a lucky factor )

Oh. So, people who fail in big dojo don't lose? People who are better in small dojo won't win? You're being quite the redundant chap here. Better players show under the adverse circumstances. Less space = less maneuverability, less margin for mistake, among some other stuff.
Point is, you're contradicting yourself. You're basically saying it's harder to fight on a small dojo, therefore making it more difficult. Expert players = higher difficulty. Therefore, small dojos are the solution to this problem you cooked up out of nowhere. If you want to play bigdojo, go play it in your server. That's what server creation is for.

It's interesting that people think this. I've decapped lots of people in aikido and dismembered lots more, it just takes effort and practice. I actually like starting off close because I suck with openers, but it means that strikes usually use energy from the opponent's grabs rather than the floor. A jump won't really transition to a kick, but you can still rip a guy's arms off and pummel him until he collapses.

Actually, proper fighting is a good way to beat skilled players since it's unexpected. You can brace yourself and get into a position with a lot of staying power, but if your arm falls off and you relax anything can happen. Any DMs and fractures will bite you in the ass come the end of the game.
