Just to clarify, I was meaning English speaking people seeking to be offended, often deliberately misinterpreting. Apologies if I gave the impression otherwise, a racist I am most certainly not.

Nothing wrong with the occasional flame war on line, it's great to watch Bill start an argument and then get offended by himself ;-)

TMP isn't even good for selling items anymore. I used to post items there all the time and have them sold within a week. Not a bite on some good deals these past few weeks. Looks like I will have to hold off on buying Pendraken's new Korean War line.

I suspect the lack of responses to sales ads is due to many people that have left, others that have been locked out by Bill, and/or people that don't have supporting memberships, so can't post there right now.

Even Tango01 was not able to do that for a while, but somehow that got changed during Bill's absence, so he's posting again.  Before that, they were down to just a handful of postings a day, since Bill is gone, so not posting threads either.  Even most of the "NEWS" postings were/are halted.

A pity, but a lot of people have moved on, or are just "visiting", and no longer posting/replying to various threads.  It's been that way for quite some time.

Thanks for the heads up on this. I just posted something to TMP and couldn't understand why it had all gone so quiet.

TMP has been my general go-to site for years. If it is in decline, where has everybody gone?

Lead Adventure Forum seems very much better-humoured.

I stopped visiting TMP a good few years ago, and don't miss it at all.

+1, although at times threads can get rather lost in amongst the shear volume of traffic.

Yes very strange indeed how Tango01 managed to gain access

Take care

Lead Adventure seems quite comprehensive. I did post there once some time ago.

I do, however, find the dark brown background difficult to read on a smartphone...

What, and miss out on all those posts beginning "For centuries, historians have believed that the third crusade was led by Ulysses S. Grant against Alexander the Great. In a startling new book, Professor Rehash of Pittsburgh Community College argues that it was in fact a European campaign against the Ayyubid Sultanate..."?

TMP = The Morons Page

got fed up with it, relates little to wargaming in my opinion, too many flame wars etc
