Does this mean we are going to get a bunch of new posters?

Yea, wondered that too.  I'm sure they are welcome here or over at my Forums.  The more the merrier.

Boy, Airhead is going to be busy with all that beach walking :p

:(

I am banned at AGW since 1999, but I have to say that Argo is the greatest member of online-flightsim community. "So much owed to so few"...

I think he meant, "why were you banned?".

I believe Boroda was banned from AGW because of his involvment with a software project which was at the center of an intellectual property dispute with the company that hosts AGW.

I don't think anybody stole anything.  They just created their own host code for WarBirds.
Also IIRC Boroda was not involved technically, just as an english-speaking friend of the programmers.

Am an ex-WARBIRD'er - having pulled time with JG-51 MOLDERS & the 27th SENTAI as well as a short stint with a Polish Mosquito Squadron that didn't last too long.

Really enjoyed my time there and the people I met. To all of them. :aok

WARBIRDS "New and Improved" themselves right out of business IMO. Was one of the reasons we left to come to AH.

I hope AH isn't on the same trend.
