Ok Jazz, first take the chip off your shoulder and calm down.
"And to say that there's no money or prestige in fencing at the Olympic level " I didn't say that.
I said:
"People don't get as good in it" "it" meaning SCA fencing. It was in response to your comment about SCA people not getting as good. And my point was that's because there's no money in it for them. They all have jobs and don't have time to compete that seriously. Re-read what I said in context.
And please, what we do, if anything, is more fencing than what you do with electrified equipment. Do you think they had electrified swords in the 1800s?
And dictionary.com does agree with me, "the art, practice, or sport in which an épée, foil, or saber is used for defense and attack." Last I checked we use all those. It also defines it as an art, practice *OR* sport.
So I do know what the fuck I'm talking about. You had some chip on your shoulder from something else and decided to come into my thread and rant about it, while attacking me before you even checked your facts. You're the only one acting like an ass, and you need to GTFO.
