Yes,we almost certainly went to the moon in 1969. I remember first hearing the conspiracy theories about 20 yrs ago; since then pretty much everything that they are based on has been wholly disproven.

As Foxpup says, the Russians would have been well on the case to check for deception, also the Americans left a range-finding mirror up there which can be detected by laser.

And they also left the lander, a moon rover, a flag, footsteps, etc xD
There is no reason not to believe they went to the moon in 1969, I think.

@hilariousandco stingleword is removing everyone with more than one account from the campaign, I think. People are being kicked out faster than entering. xD

Joined! xD
Can we withdraw immediately after the end of the week, or as we receive the daily payments, or do we need to play in the site first?

@rikkie Everyone knows that by now lol the first post already has that information. xD
@picolo they said they were almost ready a month ago, I think. Maybe they will start the campaign next year with luck! xD

So my interpretation of the TPB response is, they are taking this opportunity to re-evaluate their life priorities and probably call it quits.
Why would they do that?
If they do decide, how about they share their software with me. I'd be glad to host it.

I think I read somewhere that they didn't want to share it because it was too badly programed xD
But for now you have the open bay if you want.

I don't know if this isn't going to isolate America and Europe in time. : /
For now it's Russia that is suffering, but they'll find other nations to work with instead of Europe. There is China that can help them, maybe Iran, and then the other countries of brics, and maybe even south America. Imposing sanctions against them was not a good idea I think, because it will just make them work to be independent from the west.

It's not citizenship but a court in Argentine granted basic legal rights to an orangutan from a zoo! xD They said it was a non-human person being deprived of freedom lol and this may have consequences to how other animals are treated. Is this the end for zoos? xD

But the destruction of a lot of the country of Vietnam for no reason is much worse I think. : /

It wasn't exactly for no reason, America was defending the South from the North communist government who were the invaders. People forget the US never actually went into North Vietnam except for maybe a few covert missions and bombing raids, it was in large part a completely defensive war, the US never tried to defeat the Northern government, just keep the Vietcong out of the South.


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phoenix_Program

Just imagine what else is going on that we don't know about. The CIA basically seem to be the American SS/Gestapo.

From the article.

 If a suspected NLF member was found guilty, he or she could be held in prison for two years, with renewable two-year sentences totaling up to six years.[11] According to Military Assistance Command, Vietnam (MACV) Directive 381-41, the intent of Phoenix was to attack the NLF with a "rifle shot rather than a shotgun approach to target key political leaders, command/control elements and activists in the VCI."

Sure beats what happened in Cambodia...but you don't want to criticize that, I guess....or the atrocities of the North Vietnamese....or of Stalin in the Ukraine....or Mao...

Those should also be criticized but so should this. Both are wrong and should never have happened.
But if you want to look at scale don't forget that America did this in many places all over the world, and in many others supported those who did. And that continues today. : /
Wait, so as the initial argument unravels, you just go to the broad brush argument?  "Oh, well even if it really didn't happen exactly that way in that place, man it sure did all these other places!!!"

I kind of don't buy that logic.  You understand, right that the 40,000 killed that this operation is said to have killed are North Vietnamese invaders in the context of a war?

Sorry, I'm not getting your logic "both are wrong and should never have happened."  Unless from the point of view that an ally has a war with a neighbor, and regardless of treaties we simply don't go help.  

To find the huge, massive atrocities in the 20th century, you just go to the list of socialist and communist nations and start punching right down the list.  Not hard at all.


The initial argument didn't unravel. As I said, we should criticize all these things and the methods used no matter who did them. The others should also be criticized but you're not going to get anywhere if you criticize them and forget your own crimes. : /

The 80000 captured, interrogated, tortured, raped, and maybe half killed were not all known to be combatants and many were probably civilians.
"DeSilva was a proponent of a military strategy known as "counter terror" which held that terrorism was a legitimate tool to use in unconventional warfare, and that it should be applied strategically to "enemy civilians" in order to reduce civilian support for the Viet Cong. The PRUs were designed with this in mind, and began terrorizing suspected VC members in 1964"
And this is only a bit of what was done. And it wasn't a war between neighbors as much as a colonial war, and a war for control and influence in which the north had the most political power with the population. If America wanted to help it could have not sabotaged the peace process, installed a puppet government with a coup, provoked the north to attack by bombing them, sabotage, terror attacks, used chemical warfare against them, even intentionally on crops poisoning the food chain, forced population relocations, lied its way to open war, etc. This wasn't a war to help a friend or because of treaties.

Somes are really fan of Dr Who, personnaly i never watched it  yet

I think dr who is like couple decades old isn't it?

There are more recent seasons of dr who lol. But the series started in the 60s I think.
I saw some episodes of the new seasons and a few were interesting.

WEll bye then.

Interpool is cleaning house this year i guess.

Seriously though will they ever arrest individuals for watching jungle gold, porn, and early Annie releases?

the whole thing is silly. Obv they want  net neutrality.... The grips about to tighten by big brother on our beloved internet. Stay tuned folks (obama voice)

The piratebay already moved to thepiratebay.ee they will never take it down completely. xD
But net neutrality is what we already have. If we didn't, it would be easier to stop torrent traffic from being used.

edit: Lethn maybe right, and this isn't the official site.

@monetizator4 but you only get 0.0009 as a full member when you post in the gambling section : / in other parts of the forum you get only 0.0006 or 0.0003. No one does only posts in gambling I think, so on average you get maybe 0.0006 per post as a full member. This campaign will be good, but only if you post a lot, and in the right places. : /

Holy balls, I registered at about the same time as you but I've only been logged in for 22 days.

That means you're not as dedicated to the forum as he is. xD
I'm at 6 days and 13 hours now lol but haven't had much time to spend here these last few days. : /
