Hey Folks

I've made a couple of tweaks to the forum.

Firstly I've locked the forum down so only registered users can post. This is to prevent a**hole spammers coming in and plying us with their crap. Don't let this stop everyone coming in and arguing delicate points with great exuberance. It's only a matter of time before we have our traditional 'great but does it really work on the street' post

Secondly, I've activated the 'Karma' function on the forum - for registered users posts you will see a little thumbs up and thumbs down set of icons.

If you like their post, give them a thumbs up. If you hate their post, give them a thumbs down. This affects their Karma on the site, which I feel is kinda appropriate given the nature of the site Distribute your Karma *wisely*, you never know when someone might screw with your Karma.

And I'm hoping someone gives me a few thumbs up coz at present I have a Karma of zero

Oh... I've also got my programmer to sort out the rendering of the site in Firefox... in case you were interested.

See you all soon.

Edward.

So when could we see a couple of those "Bio's" on the SMMAA Profiles completed?

Ah yes the been there done that "'great but does it really work on the street' text! Im sure most of us have read this on several Martial Arts Websites@

If you've trained well enough and have faith in what you train, Im sure we could kick some butt...

Since ive got nothing better to do at 351am check out these clips from your favorite YOUTUBE

Hey

Thx for the clips that you put up, to remind me what not to train. Funny enough on the last clip that you posted, the man who was doing temting hands with Tony has just been started training with Sifu for 7 months now. Small world.

You know what is funny, looking at those clips... and I remember this first-hand from those days.

Less emphasis on traditional, and plenty of emphasis on 'looking really cool'

And yet at no point was cool part of the syllabus.

What's that all about...
