Good evening DrBone1,
I understand why you would post in your quote below in the following way ( I highlited it in bold )
Guess being well known amongst the community and well liked means you contributed more to the game. 
Ghost has done more for the Game in the past few years than Most who are posting in this thread.
edit: So we don't get off Track, I admire these groups in particular.
JG11-Stampf
The Loose Deuce-Dhyran,and Save
The Few-Bruv,and Kazaa
Rolling Thunder mob is what I believe they changed it too. KillrDan
The Damned Both old and New, Skyyr,Kruel, and TC.
Pigs On the Wing- Waystin2,Bustr and Razor
but in all honesty, kruel and skyyr are only "semi-new" to aces high, but they are not "NEW"to the Damned
they have been Damned for quite some time now, at least 10+ years, although their first years was in another flight sim ( fighter Ace ), they were still Damned....
I have no quabbles with Kruel or Skyyr, nor any of the other members in the wing they formed when they "kindly and maturely" left my wing to go form their own......
I think it should have been worded like this, "The Damned (all wings regardless if it's Kruel's and Skyyr's or TC's and RTR's)"
I do not think there has been one incident or argument amongst myself, skyyr, kruel, RTR or any of us since kruel and skyyr politely posted why they wanted to leave and form a new Damned squadron wing..... the only thing that even came close was where I logged in to the MA late one Friday or Saturday night and asked skyyr and kruel to call me, but we talked and all has been good since, as far as I know and am concerned......
anyways, so you know where I stand on the matter.....
hope you been doing ok, Bone
take care
<S>
