Veteran?

Dude, your not a veteran till you have served in battle. You could say I was a veteran of the air cadets if you are a veteran. —This unsigned comment was made by Canadian Reject (talk • contribs). Please sign your posts with ~~~~

Dude (I guess that's how we refer to people we don't know now, right), I AM a veteran - I served in the U.S. military. What I am NOT, due to the fact that I have never seen combat, is a COMBAT veteran - and I never claimed to be a combat veteran - in fact, if you read my page, I claim the opposite. There IS a difference. Next time, Canadian Reject, sign your name when you leave a message on my talk page.
Since we feel that we're in a position to declare who has veteran status, have you ever served in a military? Whether mine or the Canadian Forces? If not (and I know the Cadets program there; it's our JROTC equivalent - YOU ARE STILL CONSIDERED A CIVILIAN WHEN YOU ARE IN IT), shut your mouth. Until you have served in a REAL military, and not some little high school program where they let you wear a uniform and PLAY military, you don't rate to speak on the matter.

I thought I did sign my name after my post. Also, the air cadets is NOT a high school thing, it is also a very good way to prepare you for the army.--Canadian Reject 02:09, 10 March 2009 (UTC)
It's high school-age children that participate. It isn't much different; you're still not in the real military. You are instructed on a few of the things that we do in the military, and yeah, it does prepare you for the real thing. I think more kids should have that experience. The fact remains, however, that you are still not military. You do not rate to tell someone who HAS served that they are not veterans. One thing you should've gotten from your cadet courses was RESPECT. That was very disrespectful of you. Personally, if you were my recruit or cadet, you'd have been thrashed for that one.

Is this even up for discussion? If he joined the military he was obviously willing to be subjected to harsh and violent conditions. More than you or I can say Mr. Reject. BTW HAPPY vetrens day! ~ UserWiki:Galacticdominator|~]] ~ ~ 22:08, November 6, 2009 (UTC)

In many parts of the word, "it's" is considered a valid way to show procession. Though I guess it's not the universal usage. Either that or every Teacher of English that has taught me (23) were all completely wrong.-- Forerunner 20:40, 22 April 2009 (UTC)

RE: Revert

Oh, Sorry about the James Gregory Cutter article. I heard from an old website that I read a long time ago saying that Stacker voiced him. I'm a bit rusty from not being active here for a long time. Anyway, I'm sorry, and I'm glad you corrected me. Congrats on the HOTM award, and I hope to work with you again soon!

Warm Regards,

Regarding Dark Assassin

Such crime should be given an infinite block as it is about piracy and illegal downloading. Please consider.--4scen 22:54, 4 June 2009 (UTC)


Project MOS?

I have noticed you mentioned "editing in compliance with Project MOS" in some of your edits (mainly, those that deleted the Starting Weapons charts I put up in the HALO 3 Campaign level pages) and was curious as to what it referred to. The reason I ask is that I was preparing to expand those charts to show respawn weapons for multiplayer and noticed them gone. (I have not put them back up)

Ill-omened IP

Greetings Smoke.
I've been talking with Nicmavr about this anonymous user who seems able to change his IP after his last one has been blocked and keeps inserting false information inside the Mauler, Gravity Hammer, Avitus and few other articles.

I think we should block all his previously used IPs for an indefinite time so we may be able to slow him down. What's your opinion? Spirit of Fire 09:45, 30 July 2009 (UTC)

Sorry for the intrusion, but all IP-blocks should not be indefinite. You can, however, block them for a year. Even if the anonymous user can change his IP, sooner or later, he will be bored and leave us alone.- 5əb'7aŋk(7alk) 09:53, 30 July 2009 (UTC)
Yeah, IPs cannot be blocked for an indefinite amount of time. I disagree on the idiot getting bored, though; they've been doing this for almost a year now; they usually target the Gravity Hammer article. Just block them for a year every time you see them, no exceptions. SmokeSound off! 04:48, 31 July 2009 (UTC)
It's the best choice for me either. Ok thanks. Spirit of Fire 09:00, 31 July 2009 (UTC)
If I may offer thought, It seems that he is not changing his IP, but in fact using other peoples IPs. See how the first three are all in 71. ect, the second and third are both in 71.188, and the fourth and fifth are 96.235.13 ect? He seems to simply be bunnyhopping IPs as it were. It may be that he moved after the first 3 IPs, and he is taking advantage of the new location. Thanks for reading.

The 96.235.*.* might be a school. They haven't used one of those since the springtime. SmokeSound off! 03:28, 2 August 2009 (UTC)

Covenant Religion article

Alright Smoke. it might be useful. I deleted it because it was created several times and always canceled by older Admins for the "Unneeded" reason. After all it can be accepted. - SoF/Sig}} 22:21, October 29, 2009 (UTC)

OK. Well, apparently he has more detail for it that goes beyond the scope of what can be placed in the Religion article, so I told him to give it a shot. SmokeSound off! 22:24, October 29, 2009 (UTC)

Sorry!

I didn't mean to make that page, I thought I was testing a page linking to my username... I messed up. Thanks for deleting it.

I saw it was a test. Not a problem. SmokeSound off! 00:44, October 30, 2009 (UTC)

Banned for a month

I am writing this on behalf of my banned account, user:Lekgolo123, anything I have done has been unintentional and I feel I have not had the chance to explain myself or anything, I am not a vandal and do not try to cheat the points system. I did it because I was bored and couldn't think of anything to do. I regret it now and I apologise for it, yours faithfully, Kig (Lekgolo123)

I'll give you another chance. Just make sure not to do that again. Smoke
