For those sitting back and criticising, how many of you do fencing regularly or have actually tried fencing?

Fencing does come with etiquette and just because you don't have knowledge of it doesn't give you the right to sit back and judge.

Have you thought how dojo etiquette appears to someone without a martial arts background of some kind?

It's little wonder why the discussion of kendo and fencing in the same conversation results in name calling.
