Hey Guys, Whilst I am acting as Caretaker for Dod I am gonna try and make the site as active as possible - any ideas from you all would be really welcomed. I have started a weekly quiz (10 questions a week with a Prize - If anyone would like to do the quiz one week (I'll sponsor the Prize) that would be great. If you have any Karate friends who aren't members here yet - please encourage them to join. We have some great new members so joinin you guys. remember ANY IDEAS WELCOME :)THANK YOU! Fujicolt (Steve H)

Well, I kinda got away from the quiz thing as I got busy, but I will step up once and a while.
And I am going to post the site on the JKA of Manitoba facebook site....and with Dods permission will put it in the Links of JKA of Manitoba. Bunch of Crazy Canucks might show up but that is okay!

Done and Done! I have sent a message to the Cheif instructor for permission to put the link on the web page, but I went viral on facebook and threw it all over the JKA/MB members site. Hope to see a few join real soon!
Come on people, this is a great forum and the more the better. When the Cyberdojo started to drift and the Karate underground dried up it was a race to see who would replace them.
The Research site seems to have stalled now that the owner is having issues with her connection to Karate, sad really. And I really feared we would be the little guy on the block...but I was so wrong. We are the ones that will be huge thanks to Dod and Steve.
Pushing to get more members to chat with is a great way to get new ideas and more people interested in really learning a different side of Karate.

It would be interesting to see if we could get rid of the adverts near the top of the page, the Forum that I built allows you to pay to get rid. Maybe ask for donations to achieve this as it's not much normally.
Getting links out to as many Karate related websites is a good idea but time consuming.
Another idea is to start an email type newsletter to link back to the forum and let people know what is going on and remind them of the forum.
A brave step is to send an email questionaire to ask the users what they want.

Hey Mal and AND everyone else - Can't tell you too much at moment BUT the OSS forum will, in the new year, in time - be moving to a new more user friendly site . Our founder Liam Watt will sort it all. However, it is far more important that Liam, His Dad (Dod) and Sister (Martine) can have undisturbed time to help Kim deal with her illness. So just cope as it is folks - which we have managed to do so for a long time and still have a great Forum. Thanks in advance for your understanding folks!
