my 20th comes around June, but my postings are only one fifth of yours, my typing is so poor that I skip responding more often than not.

Give the guy a break... We have plenty of "prolific posters" here. Yours truly excluded of course.

Look for me on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook or Tic Toc...or anywhere you may frequent, besides SimHq, on the Global Scam Net. Aka, the internet. I am not there, never have been or ever will be, but the fruitless search may be more gratifying then the "content" you might otherwise be exposed to.

Okay, I rounded the later up slightly This is crazy. Like a lot of my fellow combatsim.com refugees (comrades, I salute you!), I've been on this site for twenty years now. Or in other words, for a little over half my life. It's really mindboggling to think how much has changed since... how much I personally have changed... And yet very reasuringly, this place has stayed quite the same. There are many fine human beings here who could crash at my place anytime, and I know the same holds true in reverse. Thankful for having been a part of this place for so long, Helmut PS: Also thankful none of my employeers knows my post count here, least they do the math on how many workplace minutes I spent elsewhere Congrats on that milestone . Been here since Dec 03, 2008 so just a little over 13 years myself. I was just looking at the top 10 posters on SimHQ and realized that 7 of them have been gone from the site for a long time. - Jedi Master* - still posting elsewhere as of a week ago.
- 20mm - his loss still hurts.
- Magnum* - still posting elsewhere as of today.
- wheelsup_cavu - I think he is still around.
- RSColonel_131st - still a local as of yesterday
- Dart - still a local and hard at work restoring his bebe! Imo, This version of the Nieuport needs the Kitty in the Ring logo painted on it somewhere for good luck though...
- BeachAV8R* - still posting elsewhere as of today.
- Rick.50cal - Rick is MIA everywhere for me.
- letterboy1 - still a local as of August 2021
- oldgrognard - still a local as of today
- citizen guod* - still posting elsewhere as of mid Dec 2021.
- Stormtrooper* - ??? Inactive here since March 2021 and elsewhere since Nov 2019.
- Top Gun - Inactive here since June 2020. Last activity at his website was Nov 2021. https://topgunphotography.net/index.htm
- adlabs6* - still a local as of Dec 17, 2021. Seen elsewhere as of yesterday.
Except Stormtrooper all the ones in bold are all doing well they just have found a new place to call home most of the time. Saw this one further down the list on page one and it peaked my curiosity. NoName (peppergomez) - gone since Nov 2014... Don't remember what caused him to ask to have himself deletedWheels

Yeah I remember him quite well since he's also a big David Lynch fan and I had quite a few good conversations with him about Lynch's films during his time on SimHQ.

Well, a few of those folks who post else where are on sites with members on the extreme of the other political persuasion. Not saying the members are, but the other folks are pretty noticeable right away with profile pictures, etc.
Seems a divide is forming here, much like the rest of the world.
PWEC exists to keep that stuff in a tidy spot, but I suppose some cannot separate that from general flight simming, which is a shame. We're a small, niche group of folks, so no sense in allowing something like politics ruin our hobby.

Agreed. Several former members specifically said they left SimHQ because the PWEC forum existed. I guess they couldn't control themselves and use their own free will to not participate in PWEC? Oh well, their loss.

PM your statement about people not being able to control themselves and use their own free will adds to the polarization of this community. These people have used their free will and decided to post elsewhere, it's just not the same free will as you. That's why it's called free will. This is a basic concept And when people use the free will and it looks different than yours, you attribute it to an inherent weakness.
I'll have to disagree with you on that one. Leaving a website because you couldn't stand that a certain forum existed on it would be like someone quitting Netflix because a single show was on that streaming service that greatly offended them.
