Cor Blimey! What a crazy couple of weeks we've had on the board just recently, topics from blowing dry fuels to Bender's crazy firehoook sword thingees. Had some new members from different disciplines and some misunderstandings following through that have been all sorted out.
COL3 has been released, as has the awesome Sage video...
Poi seems to be asserting itself once again as the main moves topic (c'mon staffers....) and as always the social section rolls over every other one like a fun, bubbly gargantuan steamroller.
I just thought I'd like to show my (our) appreciation of what Malcolm does by providing and maintaining this site, as well as the hundreds and hundreds of hours he's poured into the COL3 and the other compilations.
I know things have been a little rocky for him lately and was thinking that I can't imagine a world without HoP, its helped me progress both professionally and personally. As well as giving me and a number of other sometimes-isolated spinners a great way to keep in touch with like-minded nutters...
Oh yeah and supplying us with so many cool toys...
Sometimes we can take him and the site for granted and thought it might be time for a big...
THANK YOU MALCOLM!!!!

Great idea Charles, it's certainly been an interesting fortnight.
Many thanks Malcolm. I really appreciate all the great work you, and the moderators, do here.

Malcolm's work allows for those starting out and those already confident to make great friends that they'll keep until the seas run dry. Malcolm provides a place where helpful points and advanced ideas are shared widely and quickly - and that's just the Nutella recipe threads!! For allowing us to the uniqure experience of being exposed to so much varied pyromaniac humanity, Malcolm will be remembered as one of the greatest proponents of firetwirlage. What a legend!
If HoP was an episode of Happy days, Malcolm would be Mr C. and the Fonz all rolled up into a two-headed '50s firedude.
or something.

I agree- we take Malcom too much for granted. Malcom, thank you isn't even really enough. but it's all i can offer right now. perhaps, sometimes in the future i can think if a better way to say thanks... for now, this will haev to do:
THANK YOU MALCOM, FOR EVERYTHING!!!!
peace & love,
Kyrian

This site has been so helpful for me I cannot begin to thank you enough for all of your efforts Malcolm. Not only to do put in some many hours of hard work, you apply your morality to your work too (e.g. the way you dealt with the COL3 error).
I've learnt a great deal about our art through this site and have also picked up some good friends and cool moves along the way too. Haven't won the free competition or had a poll chosen yet but you can't win em all!!
Once again Malcolm, you're a great man and you're always welcome in my home. In fact, with everyone in here loving you so much you've probably got somewhere to stay in every country of the World! How does it feel to be so amazingly popular!

I just wanted to say thank you so very much!
If it weren't for HoP, I'd have no knowledge of my newfound love. I have learned so much about poi, and life as well from this site. I have grown an amazing appreciation of fire arts and the passion of those who participate.
Thank you so much for all of your hard work Malcom! It is truly valued!
peace & luv,
Cage

DFQ, don't ever say the word SPAM three times in a row! That's the last thing this site needs!
Oh lord, all we need is people spamming the site about making your penis/breasts larger, reconsolidating your mortagage, making bigajillions from home licking envelopes, or free Viagra.

I may sit quietly in the background, but this site has helped in improving much more than just my poi skills.
Plus, where else would I have discovered sparkly-poi?
