If that's happened to you, I'll bet you didn't like it very much. It's bad manners and hurtful to ignore people. In fact, ignoring others is a sure way to put distance between you and them.
That's why it's a Seichou Karate rule that everyone must say "OSU" when entering or leaving the dojo, or when stepping onto or off of the mat. By saying "OSU" loudly, you let everyone know that you're happy to see them and eager to train with them. This creates a good connection between you and others. This is powerful because - just like a big snowball - your "OSU" rubs off on other people in a good way. Then, people get along well and the dojo becomes STRONGER!
So, make certain that you always say "OSU"!
