Thank you for the plug JD and the kind words.

Out of the 13 or so years I've been posting at one forum or other with in the community I had a period of three or so months that I'm not proud of and isn't my greatest moment (some have such a tainted view of me because of it which does get to me, yet it all started because I was desperately trying to stay on a forum so I could still speak to you all).

Well, from mid-2012 to mid-2013 you decided to drag the GrogHeads name through the mud all over the web, so either your estimation of time is waaaaaay off base, or you're remorseful about another time/place and you're actually proud of that year you spent spouting off about things you knew nothing about but were overwhelmingly convinced of your self-righteousness.

Either way, we've left it alone for over 3 years, and left you alone to continue promoting your endeavors here on the off-chance that they accidentally offer something to the community as a whole.

Despite you talking crap about me and my friends everywhere, you've never been banned from our forum, or kicked off our site, or told to take a hike.  And yet the first time someone pokes fun at you, it's sad-puppy-eyes all around.  Get over yourself and admit that you did some really dumb shit and we're going to laugh at it - and you! - on occasion.  Even if it's not until 3 years later.

But I know that one of the things that may vanish if they don't put their mods back up is Warren Bajan's low resolution Napoleonic Mods.

...

More than likely this is incorrect, years ago Rich Hamilton had me grab everything that had existed for HPS/JTS/Talonsoft that he had posted there when he had had some sort of agreement with Maddux.  When Rich decided that the agreement that they had had ended he wanted to make certain that everything that he had uploaded there was saved somewhere.

Now, granted I have never bothered to re-add the descriptions to a lot of things (because in the words of Lewis Black I have ***&* to do.), but they are there.

I thought I'd seen those in your repository, but wasn't sure. Glad to hear you confirm it!

I double-checked this, and if Warren's graphics mods were on GS, then they were put there after what point Rich left GS, so I did not have them. What I do have are some scenarios that he had done.

That being said, you can find these mods still - plus I got copies of what I had for them, but I am not sure if I am going to be posting them or not (I can't emphasize how much I had that download program that I am using.

Edit: I don't have the graphics, but they do at the NWC club as well as some other places - doubt they are going away.

Fair enough. (I wrote much more but then decided it's a wasted effort.  I'll just say it's been alot more than just the post I quoted otherwise I wouldn't have posted anything, but hey you all know that anyway:)

Hope you and your clan have a great Xmas and New Year

Sorry for the delayed response, I don't come here that often these days, too busy with the blog and all that goes with it (alot more work than I thought it would be, but we are all enjoying it. I now have an understanding of your side and what it must be like to be bad mouthed..again sorry).

A shame I do think if things had been different we could have worked together which could have benefited our websites and in turn our readers.  If things keep going in the current direction regarding the blog then who knows we may bump into each other at a convention where I hope we are both mature and man enough to sit down and have a chat (I'll even buy you a drink:)) I pretty confident afterwards your view of me would be totally different to the one you have now, as I do honestly wish it could be a case of forgive and forget as in my eyes life is way to short.

I used to visit their forums regularly for CM, Distant Guns, POA2, etc.  But all three of those games' third party forum activity has dried up.  The computer wargaming forum at Gamesquad covered some niche games you didn't see in other places, but the traffic there has been abysmal for years.

ASL on the other hand has seemed to stay somewhat active on Gamesquad.

The Few Good Men is great for CM stuff... if that helps? http://www.thefewgoodmen.com/

Don't get put off by the "FGM" welcome front page - it stand for Few Good Men not the other FGM >:D  ;D

The ASL crowd is why I stopped going to GS. The merge after buying that ASL forum was almost as bad as the one after buying that console gaming forum.

We heard that Don wanted to re-activate warfarehq.com (the forum he took over to start it all) as a computer wargame only site since we don't interact with the ASL people anyway. However, nothing happened.

As mentioned here I also dislike that GS always ruthlessly invalidates all links ever posted to its forum, on every software change, even when it would be technically possible to forward almost all content.
