Original thread:
The ATACMS hitting targets in Russia is a game changer. It will force the Russians to move their jets and air defences hundreds of kilometres away from the border. This will allow the F-16s to have air supremacy over Ukraine. The Russians will no longer be able to use their glide bombs, but the F-16s will be able to hit Russian targets in Ukraine without the risk of being shot down.
What’s up with the page not loading properly?
I asked about this on the HELP section and apparently theres a problem on some pages.
Three more pages to Povrosk!
Boards is held together with duct tape and a prayer. Be happy it's even functional.
Previous owners absolutely killed the golden goose with their balls up of a move, we're lucky to be functioning
There's threads on the helpdesk about it and mentioned in the main bugs thread.
There's mismatch between the thread index and page count due to deleted posts. So sometimes you get 'phantom' pages until the page rolls over again.
Cheers.
it changed ownership ?
The corrupt russian military has been syphoning off boards posts for years to pay for their yachts and dachas
Thought it did, may be mistaken.
Distilled Media (if you are still the owners) you destroyed the site…
On topic; has there been movement on the long range missiles being allowed, at targets in Russia?
Not sure it was ever a golden goose, but I agree with your sentiment… it's great value for money.
I just hope it doesn't go the way of P45.rant… 'What?' Exactly! 😅
Too much has been said already! 🤐
What move?
Move to this platform "Vanilla". The original vBulletin was creaking under the weight and needed to move but this was the worst option, it seems. Also completely under scoped the project of work meaning that the site was down for weeks, along with functionality loss and continuous bugs
32 year old David Knowles who created and ran the largest podcast on Ukraine war daily since the war started has died suddenly in Gibraltar of a cardiac arrest, police are investigating
He has probably done the most out of anyone to keep this war in the news day after day
Ah Jaysus, I listen to that podcast most days. Very sad.
Surely Russia had nothing to do with it?
Not sure if BBC is in the so-called "Ukraine is doomed" camp, but here is its assessment of the likely impact of storm shadow missiles on the war (in a nutshell, as most of us already expected: will help, but will not be a game changer):
As soon as I hear anything like this I assume immediately that they did. Horrible regime. When people in the West protest outside politicians homes they should thank their lucky stars they live in the West.
Same here, i was rocked to the core when i played mondays episode.
They're saying no but counter terrorism police going there anyway to check it out.
Is there a term for a counter counter attack?
It's certainly not beyond the realms of possibility.
Civilian ship targeted!!
But but but……The talking heads have been telling us that they've been fighting NATO since the start!!
Standing awfully close to those reporters if that's the real Vlad.
Yeah, looks like Putin isn’t a bit bothered by the prospect.
Su-30 gone down
Well that didn't hurt did it? Western ammo blasts Russia.
A car drove into a small by Russian standards pothole and broke it's suspension. A local councillor complains that the situation is getting worse on the roads.
Russian attacks on people in Geneva, Argentina and Lithuania. Kremlin blame a businessman residing in Israel for one.
Israeli special forces raided and destroyed a military factory in Syria, captured some Iranians and took files.
Iran is setting up drone and missile production across friendly states, a tip of the cap to Bibi for stopping these ones from supplying Russia and Russian allied forces in the region.
The only way most wars end is by making the other side die in such numbers that continuance is no longer feasible.
