Opening a second account and trying to get around your suspension is a NO-NO Peter. It is also a good way to get your IP address banned so that you can NEVER participate.

Wait out your one week suspension. Patience is a virtue.

hello peter, names addy
Definitely facinating stuff, can't see myself practicing it though.

He aged 8 years in an hour. Maybe we should take it easy on the guy--progeria is a terrible disease.

That was funny. Good catch on that, Robert.

You are seriously sucking up for a moderator position aren't you?

Wow

While I do think it is a bit humerous, let's kind of give him a break. He's said he's new to this sort of thing and it's of my humble opinion that it can be a bit difficult to adapt yourself to nettiquette (I hope that's how you spell it). I just think it's a little rough calling him a troll right off the bat. *shrugs*

In response to Peter's actual question, I don't personally do any Iron Hand training, but one of my instructor does. He's actually kind of new to the training, but even with the little he's done his hands have become quite powerful. I wouldn't be too surprised if after several years of practice he could splinter bone.
It's my personal advice to you not to attempt to drive a nail through anything on such short notice. I don't know what the actual Iron Hand Grand Masters are capable of, but even a nail with a broad head would go through your hand if things went wrong.
I want to wish you luck with your demonstration, I truly hope it goes well. There are a few threads throughout the Budoseek! forums that give posting tips and advice that you might find useful. Check them out, if you get the chance. Until you can post again you might try using the search feature to see if you can find threads that have similar topics to what you're looking for. See you in a week.

No Mr. Johnson, he became a troll with his first 19 posts, by cross posting into almost every forum on the website and then creating a second account trying to offset his accound being suspended.

Its also a blatant disregard for the rules that he agreed to when he joined.

Wow, that wasn't even a serious attempt to fool us.
It was obvious who he was from the name.

Although this thread is closed, I am going to add my two cents:

Ryan, I don't buy your argument about being unfamiliar with 'netiquette. Common courtesy and etiquette is ALL that is needed here. Being familiar with the internet is totally uncecessary to get along with others.

Peter, driving nails is for carpenters. Parlor tricks are for magicians. That stuff bears no resemblance to the important aspects of the art you want to represent, and in fact misrepresents the art to the unknowing public. I recommend you find something else to demonstrate.
