    Yeah kind of a "Catch 22". When the forums were wide open we had a lot of folks here but also a lot of rancor particularly after the 2008 election cycle. But life is what it is.

    Hey, watch out what you're talkin' about here, the rules clearly state "(...) Mod actions are not a topic for public discussion (...)"

    You missed the whole launching of the Gulf War bit in 03.. You think 2008 was rancorous. Back then there were also a lot of French jokes.. Freedom Fries and all.. When I first got here t was not uncommon to see .. stuff that you do not see now. 2008 was not wide open.. 2002 was like the wild west ...

    And that stuff got the IL2 off topic forum (then called "The Pilots' Lounge") closed.... then open again for a second chance.... then closed forever... new management eventually decided to give us another go as most of the rabble had started their own forum. Is CWOS still running?
