I am delighted to hear this. We have truly built up a good knowledge base here and knowing it is now in the hands of someone who truly cares about our area of interest makes it all the sweeter. I have posted over on the other site and its very well run. Thank You Otto

Personally, I think this is a good move. The future of this site has been too uncertain, and it is pleasing to know that this time the new owner is a genuine WW2 enthusiast like us all. I have also been a member of Otto's other forum, and if his input here is as good as there, then it can only be welcomed.

As someone mentioned previously, if you type "WW2 forum" into Google, this is the site that comes out on top.

The stability of a WW2 enthusiast as an owner was lacking since Lee was forced to sell. I am sure that Otto will be able to take the site to another level.

It is good to see that the forum has fallen into the hands of someone who cares about th subject and not just interested in buying and selling websites

Such positivity! Thanks all for your support, I'll do what I can to maintain and improve this place.

Here is a little 'gift' from a member who is well known on the other forum, none other than the Generalissimus Peppy. I've added it to the smilies list for all to use:


Peppy is our graphics guru, he collects and makes WWII and combat smiley graphics from the far corners of the web. He is currently putting all this web art into a huge online collection that will serve ww2f.com and now ww2talk.com as well. He will keep this collection at Front64.com | Graphics for the WWII Network (no art yet, but you get the idea).

Thanks Peppy!

Sometimes, however, they are sober at their first deliberation, but in this case they always reconsider the matter under the influence of wine."
