I just tried to get on the old forum and it wasn't even there so I guess CS shut it down. To be perfectly honest, I blame it entirely on one person and, so far, he isn't here. He mentioned going to a Vietnam Vets forum and should be happier there considering that he wanted a combat vet forum only. Personally, I think he has other problems as well.

Yes, it's gone. I feel sad, because I made many good friends there. But life moves on.

Anyone here have any idea how long the old forum was in operation? I remember back when it was a "professional forum" under CompuServe and cost extra to be a member, added to your CompuServe membership and charged to your credit card monthly. It was owned by the "Forum Administator" who could actually make money from the project. Had to know DOS commands then in order to navigate through the forum.

That is odd. I was in there looking at posts yesterday. Jerry had posted his HU-1 post and I replied.

Is there a short-cut or desktop icon for this forum?

Is there a short-cut or desktop icon for this forum? I'll ask. What exactly are you looking for? |

Let me try. I was able to a couple of days ago.... Yeah, I was able to get in the "Republican" and the "Debate This" forums. From the URL you posted, it looks like they locked you out. Maybe because they now consider you a competitor? Now that's fair for you. With that kind of attitude, we're probably better off without them.... |

I've developed a thick skin as a divorce lawyer, so I don't really care. Besides, with the number of free forums proliferating, and with their clunky software that's not even on par with free forums like ours, who cares?

Exactly. Who cares? Not being able to get on the cs military forum is on par with not being able to receive MSNBC on the telle. Who cares.
