I think I found it under a search for Martial Arts forums on the internet. I sure am glad I found it! It's one of my most favorite MA sites! :)

I heard about it on rec.martial-arts. The original link that led me here was one on a Tai Chi Day (I don't remember the original post, but it was on the 6th of April, if I remember right).

Anyway, I dropped in and was amazed at the awesome caliber of people here. I stayed, and haven't looked back since.

Peace--

I actually don't remember :confused: But I'm glad I did. One reason is there is so many different people and arts here. And everyone is so friendly (for the most part). I love it because there is so few (what I call) chat trolls (people that start fights and/or are rude). It's a cool place to relax and chat about MA with decent people :)

Heh, that was me who posted that in hopes of leading people here.

I found out about it from Renegade.

As I mentioned elsewhere on the board before, I had stayed away from RMA for several years due to the general craptitude and lack of substance. I wasn't surprised to find that in my time away from it, things had actually gotten worse.

Lucky for me, Kaith had a post with a link to the site.

Ain't looked back since.

Chiduce had the link placed in our organization's newsletter and I, always looking for good martial arts conversation, eagerly joined and haven't been disappointed.

I heard about this board from the rec.martial-arts newsgroup. When I started training, I started reading it again and had posted an intro that got absolutely zero response. I saw a post from someone here (I suspect a mod, but I can't actually remember) with a link to the board, so I decided to check it out. My intro post here got some replies and that helped keep me here. I still post updates on my training to that thread of mine when I have them. :)

Hehe....Funny that a number of people here came from RMA. MartialTalk is what I was wanting out of RMA: a decent group of friendly, no B.S. people who actually had something intelligent to say.

Such a refreshing break from the "Did not" "Did too" and "Yeah, well, I challenge you to a fight, ya wuss" kind of conversation that RMA has degenerated into (has always been?).

This is a much nicer place, and I respect the people here MUCH more.

:asian: to you all.

Peace--

I agree...Its funny that so many folks mention RMA. That was part of my intention, to set up a place thats got the info of RMA, without the BS.

I'm glad many thing we've succeded. :)

I found Martial Talk through the link Kyle Saunders has on his schools web page.
