Hello, We removed a post from this thread in error. It is below. Sorry for the confusion. Thanks.

Welcome back.

Thank you for the submission.

Thanks guys.

Please keep in mind that this thread does not exist to discuss whether or not one art is better than another (which we don't allow) - it is to point out arts that seem to rival each other and how that came to be, etc. Please stick to that. Thanks! Patrick

Welcome aboard. Glad to have you.

Congrats on being in demand.

Welcome aboard.

Thanks all.

Hey all, Today's my birthday, so I'm taking a little time away and spending some time with my family and what not, but I had to drop in and mention that KarateForums.com is now 6 and 1/2 years old. I've always pointed out our half birthday, so why stop now. Thank you to everyone who has positively contributed to this community and who has supported this community and all members of my staff past and present, including Heidi, Brian, Danielle and Eric, who have helped to keep the community on it's track and in it's lane. Thank you! Patrick

Happy Thanksgiving.

Welcome to KF!

Thanks for the submission.

Welcome.
