Why have different clubs

[Herr Straße Laufer]

Don't look past Blitz for games myself either. Why? Never heard of the one mentioned in above post until now.

Do have a question tho.. All this going on lately.. Questions on PP transparency, Now looking to join/merge with other wargame sites? Isn't have a particular club by itself a way of keeping a group happily together? Allowing any who may want to leave a free choice to go with another?

Reminds me of the days of Panzer General and Panzer General 2 heyday when were groups all over with each it seemed filled with dislike towards the other from some of what have read in a couple of the posts previously. If this is correct? Believe bringing together would not work and a serious mistake myself.

Hello JS,

I've been a Blitzer since 2002. I was a member of other clubs, when there were other clubs. A lot of them were started by Blitz members who were either cast out for not following the rules, disgruntled because they wanted more of themselves and less of the Blitz, or they simply thought they could do it better.

On PayPal donations? I personally have sent checks and used PayPal to support the club. I did it because I wanted to help this great club exit. No one is getting rich off donations to the club. The original founders paid the bills. That is not happening any longer. The club relies on the donations.
If anyone does not want to give a donation? Don't. As with all giving it is a personal thing?

The club officers know that they can count on me if they get stuck. But, that is also personal.

As far as "blending with other clubs"? Anyone from any other club is welcome to become a member here. That is not true of other clubs. And, as other have stated we have had cross club competition with other clubs. Rare but they happened.

And, yes, I have a personal disgust when a cheater and the pot stirrer leaves the Blitz to form their own club and puts the Blitz down all the while. Yes, it becomes personal to me.
