The next person to join the Armabr will be a Legend!!

I was the 1st person and now someone has the chance to be the 100th person!!

Guys it just goes to show that what we have here is a great MMA community and I thank you all for making it what it is.

We couldn't do it without you all.

Please give yourselves a clapon the back for making this a great MMA forum.

Over the next year I'm going to move us to our ownsite and then hopefully start competitng with the like of Sherdog as a proper MMA forum. Don't worry thought strick Armbar rules will be appilied and any bullshit will be removed!!

This forum has been made by the people and I'll never forget you all and hopefully we can all meet up someday. I'd like to personally thank (forgive me if I miss you)

Without you guys none of this would be possible. I wouldn't bother my arse running this site without you so please keep posting and lets make this site what we want. A quality forum where like minded people can talk MMA without the shakles of sensorship. I love you all and long live th ARMBAR!!

Wouldn't have the site without you mate, so much respect!

Thanks to yourself for starting the site and thanks to everyone that makes the discussions so interesting!

I was just thinking yesterday how lucky we are to have such a great community going on here.... I hope we never get infiltrated by the kind of people that make sherdog such an awful forum.

Thanks to everyone, and we really should have an armbar convention one day to meet up and have a laugh together, that would be brilliant.

Thanks to everyone for making this place so great.


I think we should celebrate this landmark moment for the armbar by having an award ceremony thread.
i was thinking the categories could be....

Best Poster:

Most Biased Poster:

Most Successful Shit Stirrer:

Best Newcomer:

Poster Who Always Defends The Indefensible:

Thread of the Year:

Rant of the Year:

Post of the Year:

Funniest Moment:

Best Avatar:


Would ya be up for it? Any suggestion for other categories, before i put the thread up?

Great idea! I'd like to see these awards as well:

- Worst single fight prediction of the year

- Jammiest moment of the year (Paddy, Fedor and Burrso with an octagon girl on each arm springs to mind!!)

If anyone has more suggestions please add, i will try to get the thread up tonight or tomorrow.

I'll add

- Most knowledgable poster

- Most likely to post an unusual thread/comment/pic

- Funniest Poster


Have a think about them, and i'll put it up later.

lol hopefully i will make the list someday

You're a very valued member King. I'm sure Paddy thinks highly of you.

I think i win most biased poster for my "mild dislike" of one Michael Bisping.

I'll also be in the running for Poster Who Always Defends The Indefensible

Haha!

Yeah i was thinking last night that when the site does start getting bigger and bigger and attracting more members, there should be a special section of the forum just for the Armbar originals. So pretty much everyone that's on here now. And not make it accessible to the masses.

Like a kind of secret VIP Lounge for the old boys? I like that

Current regulars that are MIA are Hank Scorpio, jimmyboypost, MMA, Fedorable, Kal, King Fedor, paul 815, exiledinmania, iamthelaw, lyalla, ronneh, Jud Danger.


Here's hoping they find their way back. Some quality posters there.

Exactly, just means that if the site did attract some of the Sherdoggers that have wrecked that place that at least we'd all still have a place to post that wouldn't get infiltrated with shite.

The fact I'm on the list brings a tear to my eye, I started on here because of a rumor on 606, haven't touched 606 since... Great addictive forum cheers very much for making it happen!

woooo i made the list thanks for setting up this site one of the best for the latest news as everybody always posts up the hot goss they hear and the all posters are some of the most knowledgeable i have seen thanks

It's been a pleasure to be part of such a great group of people, and I agree that one day it would be nice to see the faces behind the Armbar!

I think Toonswagger became the 100th member at 3:30 today!


History has been made!

It looks like we've had quite a few new members today. Welcome everyone.

Were people holding out to become the prestigious 100th member?

Could you please make the awards thread a sticky? Atleast until the deadline at UFC 110....

yeah i was on 606 for ages too and signed up for the armbar as soon as i saw it. just dont have alot of time on internet at home, but every moment im online i tave a seperate page for the armbar.

Is there much activity on 606?

nope.

i posted a Armbar recruitment thread a few days ago.

i think most of the people that replied were already members

anyway thats before it got torn down by big brother (the beeb).

It's back up on 606... http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/606/A62953770

606 is quiet, I spend more time reading the boxing forum now. I can't get onto the armbar at work.

yeah moose thats my problem we only have access to sky and bbc at work so armbar for me is really for my spare time and i dont have enough of that.

The awards is a quality idea can we get it started on a seperate thread, shame it can't be a private vote so no one can see the results... that would be cool.

The awards have already been started, it is a private vote, just pm me your vote.
