Yeah, I was going to add some stuff about Ducimus and some of the banned members, as well as political climates, etc. But it's important that others contribute to the article as well. ;)

Oh, I almost forgot. The beauty of Wikipedia is that it is incredibly easy to translate the article into other languages. It's important to let the article mature before translation starts, though.

Good one, Seoul.


The two main albums are "Operation Iraqi Freedom" and "Operation Enduring Freedom", featuring photos from Iraq and Afghanistan, are the most popular.

The last four words seem out of place.


There are also several albums posted from members of the forum, displaying everything from psychological operations in Afghanistan, to Special Forces pictures from Iraq.

Delete the comma between Afghanistan and to.

Everything else looks golf-tango-golf.

Guys, you can edit the pages yourself also!!! That's the beauty of wiki! Just look at the top of the page and press the edit button.



Evan, try going to www.wikipedia.org first and then do a search for "militaryphotos.net".

If you don't stop vandalazing, they might delete it.

Vandalizing?
I was trying to add to it but then someone else it kept changeing it (removing paragraphs) so I said "F**k it" and left it alone.

Hey, **** for brains, in case you hadn't noticed, other people do care about it. Just because you think it's funny to fvck with it doesn't make it so.

Why don't you give the keyboard a rest and go find another girlfriend. It's not necessary for you to post inane bull**** in every single thread on the forum.

No one said you should care. Anyone with two hands and an ass could figure that out as well.
Why the 'feck' do you care so much? If you don't give a 'feck' then ignore it. Oh but that would mean a lower post count, aw shucks.

Thanks, Trigger.



I spent a lot of time writing that article and getting all the code properly formatted, etc. It is designed as an encyclopedic reference to the website. If you don't care about it, then don't click on it! Some people do care, as they have invested their time into it.

Fintin, just ignore it! Your juvenile acts of vandalism have forced the editors to lock the article. :roll:

Yeah, for real. He said something about his squad having copies of it, I think, but the militaryvideos.net hosting was the first time it was public.

i dont think the actual clip came from here though...in the program they interviewed and individual who was involved if i remember correctly...they actualy had clips of the humvee sitting in a hanger...with the individual discussing it

Seoulstriker, yup, way back when. I don't think I was here when virtualpender was, but I do remember that URL.

Folks, if we don't care about the article, then let's just ignore, not vandalize it. Nothing is gained by that. If we do like it, then let's contribute to it (if it is still working).

Thank you very much.

As always, have a good one, and just some thoughts...

All Wikis are open to public editing... Seoul didn't do that, it's just the nature of the program. But most of the time, they work, because generally people are mature and respectful about it.

This isn't the real world, honeybunch...this is a bunch of teenage boys with nothing better to do. In the real world, Wikipedia is a working site only because people are able to behave like civilized adults.

I just looked at the article... I want to improve it but I can't, and now I'm pissed at the morons that ruined something that could have been cool. Hopefully you come to your senses before they unlock it again.

If you use Firefox it still has a AIX icon. There was one before AIX...I cant remember what it was called though. I was here waaaaaay back then. His bandwith went over really quickly so he got AIX to host.
