Welcome. You can start here with a clean slate, leaving that forum at that forum. Thanks.

Hello, We removed a post in error. It is quoted below. It went right before Aodhan's second post. Thanks. Basically a school that ranks money more important than quality, and serves to the masses.

The generally agreed upon qualification in my experience is that they simply give recognition away for money, there is no/little real qualification going on, it doesn't really matter how you test, you are getting your belt, rank, etc. anyway. There are other things that people say, but they are more aguable. Like, if you charge a "lot" of money, you are one. But, good schools can charge a lot, so that isn't a particularly good indicator.

Sorry to hear that. Yeah, doctor time, I'd say.

Happy Birthday.

Welcome.

Thanks. I'm sure I will - it happens!

Welcome aboard.

Hello, Thank you for visiting KarateForums.com. You may have noticed an extended period of downtime here yesterday and early this morning (U.S. time). Our server’s fan died. The hard drive overheated and crashed and, as such, we lost some posts and members that signed up after the last backup. Not a lot of content, but I don’t like to lose anything, of course. If you made a post that is now gone, please re-post. If you created an account that is now gone, please register again. I apologize for the inconvenience and I appreciate your patience. Please let me know if you see anything out of place. Thank you for reading.

I think it's fully running Windows, so game CDs, etc. can work. That was my understanding, anyway.

Edited the thread title to tell people more about it before they read. Thanks.

Congrats.
