Hey all,

I've been here since about 2005 -- I lurked alot back in the hayday.

In all that time, this forum has been the happiest martial arts forum that I know of, and really I think I've been to all of them.

So, I'd just like to say,

Thanks for being there KF

You're welcome. In actuality, it's a two-way street with each of us helping each other across the board. Your contributions are greatly appreciated, and for that, I thank you.

I'm relatively new here but is always good to see people being active and posting - the more people doing so the better!

It's great to have you come back, Drew!

Hey Drew,

That's really nice of you to say! And means a lot. Thank you!

Just so that everyone knows what Drew is referencing with the belt, I'll go ahead and push additional replies to the announcement where Drew was named Member of the Month: https://www.karateforums.com/member-of-the-month-for-april-2023-drew-vt55608.html

Thanks again,

Patrick
