Hope all is well Siggi

Great stuff...I am running out of Historical Skins to do now anyway...I have exhausted my 'Google images' to the point that there are none left! I am now resorting to stealing the ideas of skinners from other WW1 forums to feed my incurable lust to skin!!! (nice shot Olham btw)

Nearly made me cry! In 1986, Peter Davies was on holiday in Kenya after graduating from Northwestern University . On a hike through the bush, he came across a young bull elephant standing with one leg raised in the air. The elephant seemed distressed, so Peter approached it very carefully. He got down on one knee, inspected the elephants foot, and found a large piece of wood deeply embedded in it. As carefully and as gently as he could, Peter worked the wood out with his knife, after which the elephant gingerly put down its foot. The elephant turned to face the man, and with a rather curious look on its face, stared at him for several tense moments. Peter stood frozen, thinking of nothing else but being trampled. Eventually the elephant trumpeted loudly, turned, and walked away. Peter never forgot that elephant or the events of that day. Twenty years later, Peter was walking through the Chicago Zoo with his teenaged son. As they approached the elephant enclosure, one of the creatures turned and walked over to near where Peter and his son Cameron were standing. The large bull elephant stared at Peter, lifted its front foot off the ground, then put it down. The elephant did that several times then trumpeted loudly, all the while staring at the man. Remembering the encounter in 1986, Peter could not help wondering if this was the same elephant. Peter summoned up his courage, climbed over the railing, and made his way into the enclosure. He walked right up to the elephant and stared back in wonder. The elephant trumpeted again, wrapped its trunk around one of Peter legs and slammed him against the railing, killing him instantly. Probably wasn't the same f***ing elephant. This is for everyone who sends me those heart-warming b*lls**t stories.

I think there is much more involved in Arming, Aiming and Launching this sort of weapon system, than your average terrorist group would be able to figure out. It's one thing to fly a plane into a building...quite another to use this methinks.

Thanks Gepard...I was trying to figure out why I felt so uncomfortable with it..and you have just reminded me of why.

Well, it's only 12:15am here in the UK...So, I (think-hope) I am still reasonably awake enough to answer!...lol Firstly, before I continue, I should say that I agree with pretty much everything you have said, and I think you may have misunderstood me to a certain extent? I was only making reference to this particular incident... Not to fighting as a general rule. (although, I am quite seriously against Violence for the most part) but am adult enough to know that on occasion's it is justified. It's also natural for a man to want to protect his mate, provide for her (ie, housewife), have her take his name, and have her raise the kids while he goes out and provides and defends. That was the only comment you have made, that I disagreed with. There is no evidence, that Men and Women 'naturally' have those roles. They are 'adopted' roles of the past, yes...but are blurred more and more these days I am happily married, and don't feel those 'natural' feelings whatsoever tbh...it kinda sounds like an episode of the Flintstones!! The sort of 'Political correctness' that you mentioned however, I have no trouble agreeing with you...it is Left Wing Liberalism of the worst kind...and yes, we have exactly the same situations with the Police, Schools and Nanny State politics, that you have over there. I was surprised that it's as bad over there...I was under the mistaken impression, that it was a UK bum deal! So, all in all..... there's not a lot I can add really..... You have kinda pi$$ed on my Bonfire! And therefore, I shall bid you Goodnight, and thanks for the conversation...it's been enlightening and interesting

Oh, I agree Axgrinder...MP is good fun...but Capture the Flag belongs with FPS games I reckon?

well m8...I think it just goes to prove, that Neoqb are just in it for the money! The fact that you have to pay extra to download any decent aircraft, coupled with a desire to draw in the MP Gamer Kiddies, just about sums it up. At least it has shut the fanbois up.... they cannot go on about realism any longer

To REALLY pi$$ someone off on a Monday?????

It is indeed...a lot of love has been used in it's construction...though, I think the Supermarket employee who has to remove them all wont be sharing that feeling!

Well, yes...as we all have... though you make it sound like I am an SS Soldier, merely 'Doing his duty' without thinking..because he's been told to...which isn't the case at all Ok, Granted...how an individual sees his/her world, and the things that happen in it, would be judged by that individual as right or wrong, depending on their own core values, established through teaching, or experience. The vast majority of us believe that Murder, theft (and all the usual anti-Social stuff is wrong)...which is why we live 'reasonably' well with each other, day to day in our socialised groups. I am reasonably Left Wing, in that left to their own devices,I believe people will muddle along with each other for the most part, without totalitarian rules and regulations...but we need a set of core values that the majority live by...or we are back to the Dark Ages. I personally think that Politicians physically fighting one another, shows a lack of maturity, which is unbecoming of someone in their position....but as you say...I have probably been taught that it is wrong...but I don't see a problem with that. Do you?

And now with Capture the Flag...it just doesn't get any more realistic does it?..hahahahaha

Quite simple really. It's also a very Human, very natural act to Masturbate....but that doesn't mean it's socially acceptable for grown adults to do so in Public

Dickhead!!

Hmm...It's The Sun though...biggest Hag-Rag ever!

Blimey Quack...dont you ever sleep?

CTF?....hahahahahahahahahahaahahahahaha......that just kills off any credibility they had! BYE BYE ROF!!

It's little wonder that 'other' WW1 flight Sim is interested!......I would be too, if I charged the earth for a simulator with only a couple of uninteresting planes in it...had a naff DRM system....and just wasn't worth the money! I bought it (cos I would)...it sits forlornly on my PC...unused, unloved....and uninteresting! (have to admit...I got a certain amount of deranged pleasure by posting a skin in the Download section here!) http://forum.combata...h-fokker-dviif/

Hmmm.... Don't think much of Sabaton if I'm honest. Sounds like summat out of the Glam Rock era of the 70's

It’s a bit early for Iceland volcano jokes. We should wait a while for the dust to settle. I see that America has declared war on Iceland. Apparently they are accusing them of harbouring a “weapon of ash eruption”. It was the last wish of the Icelandic economy that its ashes be spread over Europe. Iceland goes bankrupt, then it manages to set itself on fire. This has insurance scam written all over it. Iceland, we wanted your cash, not your ash. Waiter, there's volcanic ash in my soup. I know, it's a no-fly zone. Richard Curtis is working on a new rom-com about people stuck in an airport who fall in love. The working title is "Lava Actually". Woke this morning to find every surface in the house covered in a layer of dust and a foul stench of sulphur in the air. No change, I’ve been married to that bone-idle Bitch for 20 years. Forget Iceland debt and they will switch the volcano off. What I want to know is, if there is ash everywhere, do I still need to go outside for a smoke?

I already Have the Hardware...woof woof!

Once again, boils down to greed! The US does not have a mandatory ruling on an acoustic switch Quote:- "The U.S. considered requiring a remote-controlled shut-off mechanism several years ago, but drilling companies questioned its cost and effectiveness, according to the agency overseeing offshore drilling. The agency, the Interior Department's Minerals Management Service, says it decided the remote device wasn't needed because rigs had other back-up plans to cut off a well" http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748704423504575212031417936798.html?mod=rss_Today's_Most_Popular Drilling Companies questioned it's cost?.....oh yes!..I'm sorry!....They can't afford such things....I mean lets face it...what is the death of eleven people, and an environmental catastrophe compared to a final solution cut off switch? Well, let's hope the head men at 'The Drilling Companies' don't lose any sleep eh? W*nkers
