Does he really not know how to use the quote feature? It's really not that difficult.

I'd have to find another spot to post my workout blog and that would make baby Jesus cry. :(

people with like minds/interests will gather together.

either in the park or tea house.

forum is good for people from long distance to gather ideas without physically travelling.

we do. Usually so my buds can gang up on me and say,"wtf are you wasting your time with these fools on the forums?":p

I usually retort,"if it weren't for these forums, fools like us would have never met and become such good friends!";)

Thing like this will not be able to happen any more.

A: I know someone who can kick your butt.
B: I think not.
A: I think so.
B: I think not.
A: I think so.
B: What's his name? Where does he live?
A: He lives in Denver, Colorado and his name is "C".

B. Knock! Knock!
C: Who is there?
B: This is "B".
C: I don't know that name. What do you want?
B. Someone said that you can kick my butt.
C: Who said that?
B: The name is "A".
C: That's my ex-wife. How did you know her?
B: Don't know A. A is someone who loves to argue on the internet.
C: Why do you come here for?
B: I need to find out whether or not that you can kick my butt.

P: Knock! Knock!
A: Who is there?
P: This is police! Open the door!
A: What do you want?
P: Why did you send B to kill C?
A: I hate C.
P: That's premeditated, a first degree murder. You are under arrest.

No worries, all. The forum is fairly stable. We have our occasional intermittent issues. What I'm more worried about is the print mag. Print is a dying industry (http://ezine.kungfumagazine.com/forum/showthread.php?t=52868). It's growing even more obsolete than fighting with swords (http://ezine.kungfumagazine.com/forum/showthread.php?t=52919).

FTR, I wasn't implying it was about too...just social commentary at best...or worst...


what about converting to a pay subscription site for the articles and such??? or stuff like...what is it? podcasts?

Hey ya know a number of publications have done that.

yea...ok...just brainstorming and I'm sure Gene or Design Sifu will say why this isn't possible but:

you could pay the same monthly price or the same discounted annual, biannual or a new LIFETIME membership fee (complete w/ full access to online copies of all old issues and perhaps SPECIAL content...just for you!)

and then, in addition to the content on the web you could download a .pdf file of each and every article...including advertisements...laid out just like print form is now...or pay a higher fee for downloading w/o adverts.


hey, speaking of promotions: when is there going to be a contest to win a pair o' dem magnetic pinkie rings?;)

I would go into a mourning period of at least 1 year. I would only wear robes made by my own hand, eat grain grown by my own hand, and live in a hut built by my own hands.

needless to say, ill be cold, hungry and wet.
