I agree OMI!!! or maybe rk-mma, lenshu3ng, tk, or any fighting mod rather than a more wrestling oriented mod.

TheGod please understand you are not the only player in the community.
And all the fair-play talk really is irrelevant idk how this convo is still continuing as if no one will ever learn. There is no fair play in competition with vague
rules like 'no running' and such. Put it in a box or a ring and let people play how they want to play. If you think this ruins wushu's integrity then maybe you should just sit out during the competition, or allow people to run without a ring. YOU CAN'T HAVE YOUR CAKE AND EAT IT TOO DAMMIT
Edit: one more thing. wushu needs to fundamentally change for the play style TW and other wushuers enjoy. If you don't understand that then you have another host of issues. Put a ring, change engage distance if you want, but you cannon combat people wanting to win, its just not going to happen. Not now, not ever
With that being said, I still disagree with this ----> "That being my argument about how Team Wushu has made Wushu less competitive, let me tell you how they can move the game forward rather than backwards."
They are not making it less competitive. The idea is (when NOT just complaining about everyone else's play style) Or at least the notion I always got from this portion of the community isn't that we should chastise those who do not follow our guidelines(if u can call it that) but to try and beat the players who play very direct for the win, while retaining your style. This doesn't mean its becoming less competitive it just means we are further challenging our selves to play as the underdog but still come out victorious. I play this way because when I win, and I gave them every opportunity to CB I feel proud of the accomplishment. It makes it more competitive if you allow the 'cheap' moves but still retain these ideas, not less competitive.
I will play my way, you play yours. No hard feelings.
