Well, let's see: ARGOS is the organizer of ALRS, the oldest and largest continental european high power launch. So it's quite a good platform to promote iPowerrocket, as all european HP rocketeers often come here for news about ALRS. And there are only two german forums that have high power rocketry. So I guess you are not into high power.
I cannot confirm if this is true or not. I just remember that I saw many HPR flights and events here in Europe over the past decades. And as far as I can remember, ALRS is a more recent event, about 10 years old (my first Aerotech flight dates back in the late 80´s, for example).
But anyway, I didn´t get aware that iPowerrocket is just a program for HPR flyers? When it´s true, since most rocketeers fly low- or midpower rockets, it would be useless for them. Then Rocket Sim would be a better choice I guess?

The problem with that forum is that it is completely closed, it is impossible to look at the forum without registering. At that point, one has already accepted the forum terms and conditions, which prohibit to post a link to iPowerrocket. So what's the point? Furthermore, the forum seems not to be about high power, so it's not of any interest to me.
No, the Modellraketen Forum is public, just a free registration is required. You may even login into it as a guest viewing the terms and conditons. It´s open to anyone who accept the terms - but is that different to any other forum? Even the Swiss forum you mentioned has terms I need to accept and has many completly closed areas. Different to any other German-speaking forums, it´s the only one which does not belong to a club. It`s even not true that you cannot place links. And, it is also about Highpower - there is no restriction to exclude HPR topics. If you have no account and cannot read the terms, as you say, how can you verify what you are telling here?

This forum is even more extreme. You cannot even see what this forum is about. How should I know that there really are people interested in a software like iPowerrocket? You are not even allowed to see the terms and conditions without registering. So you don't know what you are getting yourself into. It could well just be a scam to collect Email addresses of people interested in model rocketry, to later spam them. No thanks. Anyway, as both forums are run by the same people (by you, among others, as your signature shows), I conclude that the terms will again disallow a link to iPowerrocket.
As the name says, the European Rocketry Forum it is about rocketry in Europe... How could you determine in other forums if people are interested in your program if you never asked? You cannot see terms and conditions? Have you ever looked before you posted this? Just click
here to view it. And if you do not thrust a website that is in business for almost 15 years - how could you thrust a forum like yours being in the web for just 3 years or so?
But I believe this discussion tends to get offtopic? I just explained why I (among many others) never get aware of your software. It´s up to you if you would like to promote it or not...
