Very cool list Patrick. Thanks for taking the time to compile the numbers. Some very familiar names and contributors.

Thanks for the kind words guys!! Mallory, glad to see you joined KarateForums. I think you'll find some great martial artist here who have a wealth of information ready to share.

The pleasure was mine Patrick. Glad I was finally able to meet you in person. Too bad you just missed the July 4th extravaganza at Barbie Beach, they broke out the GI Joes and everything!!! LOL!!

Congratulations!!!

Great interview CredoTe. Sounds like you have had many ups and downs on your journey. You are to be commended on your resilience and focus too achieve your goals. Thanks for the contribution you've made to KF.

Always enjoy reading your post Pat. Your knowledge of the Martial arts and help you have provided thousands truly is something to be proud of.

Heidi you were always one of my favorites here at KF when I was a regular member here and even more so when I became part of the staff. You are a quality person, and I thank you for the dedication you've shown to KF.

HON-SHIN-DO was born out of the Karate efforts of Masters Leo Kozloski and Bruce Saver. Sensei's Eric Cranston and Christiaan Grant along with other high ranking Black Belts were the main catalyst' for this style of Martial Arts with roots in Okinawan Shorie Ryu. Hon - Is true Shin - Is from the heart Do - Is the way The Translated Meaning of HON-SHIN-DO = THE WAY OF THE TRUE HEART

Wow Patrick, 10 years ago today. I'll bet you never figured the world would be ending today. Ha Ha! LOL. Congrats on your success! For starting so young in your life you have indeed accomplished a lot and have a very bright future. You should be proud. I feel fortunate to be able to call you a friend. Good luck on the next 10 years.

I too was looking for a place to share my experience in the Martial Arts as well as learning from others out there in the community. It was great to find a community that was ran very well and didn't allow "my way is best" attitude to dominate the boards. You can still have a debate on a topic without it getting out of hand thanks to a great staff. I was lucky enough to be on staff for a while and really enjoyed my time there. Thanks Patrick! It's rare today to be able to ask a question on a forum and be able to get some great positive feedback from it's members. As long as this community has been around speaks volumes of how good it is and how well ran it is.

WOW! Jan. 9 2003! That was a long time ago.

Heidi is a Great one for sure Patrick! I had the pleasure to be on staff with her and always enjoyed her post and the way she fairly handled ever situation, good or bad. She always has great advice for the newbies of Martial Arts as well as the old veterans out there. Being a Mod on a forum is not always an easy job and requires a lot of time and dedication. You exemplify that Heidi. Best Wishes, Greg
