Lol, dont forget I still own an appartement in Lausanne/switzerland, there we get to see films half a year before they come to Germany. They are pretty quick with that in switzerland. But be assured, it takes another 22 days before the film starts in Germany! And Mr. Tank, you are 13, i dont want to judge on your age but there a quite a lot of people at your age that are not capable to control their emotions and I dont want to face a little dwarf that pulls his gun just because I rang the bell at his door and he doesnt know me. And gun-laws dont restrict hunters, just to let you know!
-
The purpose of the film was not about the gun-laws? So there is no reason to diffuse the topic of this thread and therefore I hope no real reason to lock it if people stay on track. He made a very valid point there. The NEWSCOVERAGE of crimes. Americans get bombarded with life-coverages of car-chasing and drug-dealer-hunt. OF course people will feel insecure, even if the live in the most secure suburbs!

Funny, I heard several people speaking about that interview. Strange how many actually watch that Ophrah. Of course he is extreme left, but his points were valid. Also, he didnt blame it on the guns and compared it to Canada where people own guns but the rate of abuse is relatively low.

1. We can pay our soldiers (at least more than once a year) 2. We can fead our soldiers 3. most of our soldiers can read 4. taking a shower is everybodys right 5. We dont make them sit on rusty nuclear warheads 6. we dont need enemies to justify our existance 7. We conquer countries in peace without a single drop of blood 8. We dont take morons making songs about killing, we make them work in a home for old people 9. We dont burry Hitler in the centre of Berlin in a great impressive grave 10. We accept our neighbours and coalition partners(e.g.USA) and consider conversation as the first, war as the second solution (not the other way around) 11. We put rapers and child-murderes into prison and not back into war. (we all remember the incredible decision by the court dont we?) 12. Our soldiers actually return home after military service 13. We tell them when the war is over? 14. We want to use it to make it a better world, not one that is worse. Funny that a nation can actually learn from terrible mistakes isnt it!
-
Using gas was correct! We dont really know how much it helped. THis gas has a certain smell that can be detected. How did the military know they had no gas-masks? (I guess they didnt) On the other way the russians immediately after the ending of the hostage-taking began a huge offensive against Chechnia again. Striving for revenge? Need to slap someone? someone, no matter if responsible or not?

Yeah heard about that, the crabs that are contaminated with penicilin right? Terribe Terrible!

I guess for several reason. Reason one is you attract quite a lot of morons and spammers if you give the posters free hand. Secondly you dirty up the forum since there will be hundreds of threads but only few responses and then it takes a while to search before you find what you are looking for. And finally, the most important argument: you direct the members to the places that promise a good discussion. You force them to participate in very few threads and therefore get many posts and a vivid discussion. Look at the Stunt thread, the middle East thread or the other threads that are composed of many pages (actually worth reading). And you will find only little spam there. Less is more (I mean restrictions) is not always true. We know that here for a long time, the US-stockmarket only knows that since ENRON

lol, ran you reference-poll is locked so the ones that did not vote (and I  may assume that this is the case with syco since he is new) cannot see the results  Alors, c'est quoi ca ce connerie! Â

Cross atlantic ratio US Euros Thread (but not a poll) Where are you from thread (locked so cant see result) what country are you from (locked quicker than then a cell) Actually they are all pretty useless
-
And finally..... "Welcome" Just a forgoten procedure of politeness...

No, no need to look it up. I can tell ya in general: First of all we got quite a lot from scandic nations. I guess around three of them. THen we have a few germans here, also around 3-5 of them (some come back once in a year) We got a frenchy, a spanish eeeeee, some from the eastern block, one from Belgium. Quite a lot from the US, and finally some moderators from hell!

Will I be the last one to visit this exquisite thread before it gets locked. Damn I am something special, finally

The last yoke was  very scary and I wont sleep well tonight. Still they remind me of quotes from some famous Sports-moderators, and it shows sport is war!: 1.-cut- 2. Ted Walsh - Horse Racing Commentator: "This is really a lovely horse and I speak from personal experience since I once mounted her mother." 3. Grand Prix Race Announcer: "The lead car is absolutely, truly unique, except for the one behind it which is exactly identical to the one in front of the similar one in back." 4. Greg Norman, Pro Golfer: "I owe a lot to my parents, especially my mother and father." 5. Ringside Boxing Analyst: "Sure there have been injuries and even some deaths in boxing - but none of them are really that serious." 6. Baseball announcer: "If history repeats itself, I should think we can expect the same thing again." 7. Basketball analyst: "He dribbles a lot and the opposition doesn't like it. In fact you can see it all over their faces." 8. At a trophy ceremony BBC TV Boat Race 1988: "Ah, isn't that nice, the wife of the Cambridge president is hugging the cox of the Oxford crew." 9. Metro Radio, College Football: "Julian Dicks is everywhere. It's like they've got eleven Dicks on the field." 10. US Open TV Commentator: "One of the reasons Arnie Palmer is playing so well is that, before each final round, his wife takes out his balls and kisses them. " Oh my God, what have I just said?"

The poll is badly done. Why didnt you simply put "yes" or "no". Of course it still would depend on price and content but I guess that is no question. The question is whether one would pay for a mission pack by BIS. So actually you would have to add "yes" and "depends on.." together to get a good overview.

I agree, it is definetly one of the greatest things in life (even after work) but on the other hand it should not become center of your life. I got friends that start to get those special eyes when they enter a night-club, then they are no longer human but animals with a great chasing-instinct. And that I think it so damn pityful. I also hate people talking about it... it is so wannabe macho. Oh yeah and I hate the way of modern media to turn it into a superficial side-event. I mean look at those HipHop and R&B videos: I like the music but all those little poor bastards that want to live in white houses drive a mercedes, but have never seen a balancesheet, and in the background you see their 100 chix waiting to get ...by them. Is that their idea of a perfect life? So do I get the message right of those videos: Sex is a luxury together with a white house, an ugly pool, a overtuned american version of a Benz SL? Here comes the superficiality, sensitivity is out, backt to the stone age.

agree that the hostage-taking has no justification and there are other channels to make yourself hurt. But whatever end this will take, it definetly is a taste of what russia might have to face in the future.
-
the site has too much traffic right now, cant upload anymore!
-
I remember a simillar incidence in Greece (if that is correct). The hostage takers didnt kill anyone though, they wanted to remind the world of chechnia. They surrendered and noone gut hurt.
-
But we all have to admit something. With all this 9/11, Isreal, Afghanistan and Iraq discussion we totally forgot about the intensity of the war in chechnia. During the last months we had quite a lot international elections but THIS war was never part of the election-debates. So much about Iraq, so much about unessential topics but not a single word about the war. We seem to be faster accusing the americans than accusing the russians. Now I am saying this without polarising but war is war and needs equal attention

Assault Can constantly mails me and asks why he got banned. He cannot post anymore and is surprised since he didnt realy insult anyone. You should make a threat about all those being banned and justify it. He tried logging in under a different name and it didnt work either. I told him that I can post perfectly, could someone of you mods please reply to him under [email protected].

I noticed that the larger the amount of addons the harder it gets for OFP to memory map the music files and the campaign files. This has been confirmed by others too (avons site). Now most addons I want to keep, some I may want to get rid of. But the problem is I dont know anymore which is which, cause the file names of the addon pbo's have nothing to do with the actual name of the addons. What shall I do? Clean the addons folder and add one by one so I can verify what what file corresponds to which addon? Can I rename the addons, so the instead of a file called xxx.pbo it would be lightrussiantank.pbo would it still work? If I open the pbo files can I find the name of the addon somewhere? For those who cleaned up their addon folder already, tell me how you did it please! Â How do you deal with the large amount of addons?
