No, Catfish, it is more likely it was badly hacked/attacked.
This is done unfortunately by dark creeps who try gain some
doubtful importance that way - how poor must those souls be?

Why is your tennis ball orange when all of ours is yellow Catfish?

You must remember the 'M' in M.A.S.H. stands for Mobile

The "switch" was easy for me. CA was down; I came here to the OFF forum that has existed for a long time, anemic though it was. Done and done. I'm at SimHQ everyday checking several other sims, anyway.

There was at least one giant move before, wasn't there? Details are hazy but IIRC the entire OFF forum was shut down somewhere (Sim Outhouse?) and wound up having to move to Combat Ace.

Hi Lou! Yes sir. We've done this before and we will make it home in short order. It's not the "place" so much as the cast of characters that will make it special.

I'm getting too old for all this moving. OFF has been around ( that I know since Christmas 2005) I got a computer that I could use for it in June 2006, there was a massive crash at SOH in Sept 2008. We started OFF again with Nothing, we lost everything ( POOF ) it was all gone. I don't remember the exact date SOH politely asked us to leave. And we started anew at Combat Ace, now Here

I'm starting to feel like a gypsy, soon Lawrence Talbot will show up, with a full moon

Hi Lou,

good to see you here, sir.

You may recall from CA you
very kindly walked me through
setting up a blip button.
Well, sad to say I gave up on
the attempt with my aging JS
(actually the throttle just
gave up the ghost). So I got
a saitek throttle thingy and
programed the mags off/on
function to one of the rocker
switches - bingo, works a
treat. Makes formation work
so much easier.

Well worth the buggering around.
(Sorry for the hijack)

That was at least the third time the CombatAce forums went down in the last year or so and that's tough when you depend on it for business. I'm sure that factored heavily into the permanent move. In any event I'm thankful for our new home but like anything else it will take some getting used to.
