    4000 Strong

    We are back to 4000 members again. As the old timers here will remember, we had 4000+ before we transferred the forum from infopop to vbulletin. In the shuffle, about half of our members were lost. It really annoyed me since I had just run an ad in the magazine that promoted our forum as having 4000 members. There's no truth in advertising I guess...

    Thank you for your support everyone. Please continue to tell your friends so we can all share more about martial arts.

    Congrats Gene. And thanks for this playground. If it weren't for this place I'd think Tai Chi was for old hippies and not a heck of an art.

    OK so the afternoon class is full of old hippies but there's a bunch of martial artists in there too. It's fun to frighten the old hippies during push hands.

    The crap that many schools do is not the crap I was taught or train in or teach.

    Dam nit... it made sense when it was running through my head.

    There are 4000 members but where are half of them. I'd say about 300 or so actually post. Where is everybody??????

    Oh yea, when are they gonna fix that date of registration thing or is it lost to time.

    I got 99 problems but a bitch ain't one"

    "If you can't respect that your whole perspective is wack
    Maybe you'll love me when i fade to black"

    There are some lurkers, but not 3500 of them. They must be highly entertained, maybe.

    When you get a chance, take a look at how many members have never actually posted....

    EDIT - Gene, don't mean to burst your bubble. It's still a great effort. Yay for us!!

    Peace is not the product of terror or fear.
    Peace is not the silence of cemeteries.
    Peace is not the silent result of violent repression.
    Peace is the generous, tranquil contribution of all to the good of all.
    Peace is dynamism. Peace is generosity.
    It is right and it is duty.

    Ever get the feeling that we're being watched?
