  1. My pleasure, IcemanSK. You are deserving! Patrick
  2. A lot of fun stories here, all. Thanks for sharing. Nice. It's cool that he replied. I'm trying to think if I've net any... Nice. I have met a bunch of athletes, but I'm trying to think if I've met any fighters or well-known martial artists. Hmm. I can't really think of any.
  3. a.k.a. "all of them."
  4. Hey all, Wow, two members joining the 1,000 posts club at once (the 97th and 98th members of it, respectively)! IcemanSK first and now Spartacus Maximus. There are all sorts of reasons why this is great, but the first one that jumps out to me is that with IcemanSK registered on October 12, 2005, while Spartacus Maximus joined us on June 1, 2014. Both members are respected because of their quality contributions. What this showcases, to me, is that our community is a wonderful mix of veteran members and newer ones, with the door always opening to additional members. That's vital for us. We need to have that mix, where we are welcoming of new people, and grateful for those who have made this community a part of their lives over a longer period of time. Speaking of Spartacus Maximus, specifically, I will tell you what I have seen. Certainly, a member that has been recognized by the community (5 KarateForums.com Awards nominations, with a win), which I think speaks to the fact that a lot of people have been touched and found value in the posts that Spartacus Maximus has made. Spartacus Maximus has been one of the most consistent people within our community, since joining it. It really doesn't take long to make a name for yourself here and Spartacus Maximus made an immediate positive impression and has built upon that, creating an impressive legacy of contributions and helping many people in the process. Thank you, Spartacus Maximus, for the outstanding contributions that you have made to our community! Sincerely, Patrick
  5. Hey all, I would like to congratulate IcemanSK on reaching 1,000 posts here at KarateForums.com! Ever year when we hold the KarateForums.com Awards, I make a point of saying that we only have a few categories, and we can't hope to honor all deserving members. It is 100% true, though it may not always be easy to point to examples. I hope this doesn't sound like backhanded praise, but IcemanSK is a great one. I just looked at the awards page and was really surprised to learn that IcemanSK has never even been nominated for an award. This is despite being a member for 10 and a half years and making 1,002 posts. The reason it's surprising is because IcemanSK has a wonderful track record in our community. Whether you are a member, staff member or me (I can speak for me, haha), it's almost certain that your opinion of IcemanSK is a good one. Thank you, IcemanSK, for your amazing contributions and for being such a long term presence in our community. We appreciate you. Sincerely, Patrick
  6. Welcome back, Sentoka. Just for anyone reading this, we generally don't allow multiple accounts, but Sentoka's account was old and hardly used, and Sentoka will be sticking with this one. Thanks, Patrick
  7. Happy birthday to Alex! Hope you are having a great day. Thank you for everything that you bring to our community. Patrick
  8. Congrats scohen0300. That's a good feeling. I don't have any stories like that, that I can think of. I lift dumb bells and lift much lower weights. Patrick
  9. They're both on streaming: The Real Miyagi: https://www.netflix.com/title/80094358 Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon: Sword of Destiny (a Netflix original movie): https://www.netflix.com/title/80039717
  10. GREAT topic, IcemanSK. Thanks for starting this. Patrick
  11. Hey IcemanSK, Thanks for taking the time to say hello here. I'm always glad to see your name pop up. You have a long history of outstanding contributions and, wow, almost 1,000 posts! Our community is richer for having a mix of experienced members who have been here for a long time, and newer members joining in. Glad that you are finding more time to be with us lately! Thanks, Patrick
  12. Hey all, I thought I would mention that Noah (Wastelander) has just released a DVD of a Naihanchi Shodan application webinar he recorded with Richard Poage. You can find it on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Complete-Naihanchi-Application-Webinar-Richard/dp/B01CF83N8A/ From the description: Congrats on releasing this, Noah. Patrick

  14. Hey Dicho. Welcome to KF! Patrick
  15. Welcome back, John. You've definitely been missed. Glad to see you back. Congrats on the new business. Is it unrelated to the martial arts? Patrick
  16. Welcome to our community, Johnboy101. I'm sure that our members will have some great thoughts to offer you soon. Patrick
  17. Welcome to KF, sicktwist. Glad to have you. Patrick
  18. Hey sd.bombon! Welcome aboard. Patrick
  19. Being a member of KarateForums.com. I'll show myself out.
  20. Sounds like a nice day!
  21. Happy birthday, Devin (Lupin1)! Hope you have a great day. Patrick
  22. No worries, liger. I don't know if there is even a pattern to what I watch, to be honest. Pretty random!
  23. Hey liger, I don't do karate, so hopefully it's OK for me to jump in... but I do play video games. I don't do any streaming or upload any videos. Me and my brother did mess around with that for awhile, though. That brother does do some things on his own channel, though. I do watch some videosvery occasionally. Usually when one of my brothers links me to something. Patrick
  24. I'm so happy to hear that, liger. Thank you for saying so. Patrick
  25. I'm glad that you are enjoying it, MAfreak. Thanks.
