Moderator note: You're not supposed to ask/answer every other post. Several people are guilty of this. Please respect the rules and give other people an opportunity to play as well.


Back to the game:

How do you carry your credit cards, ID, money? (tri-fold wallet, clip, nothing, etc.)

[nikon50bigma]

Wallet.
Why do my post keep getting deleted?

[PhilDernerJr]

Because you end up replying to questions that were answered right before yours, making your posts redundant. It's a part of game rules. Also, with the forum upgrades, moderator notifications are inoperative at this time. Sorry about that!

Kilroy vs. Johan....who would win in the cage?

[stuart schechter]

I say Kilroy. Just sounds a whole lot meaner!


Cats or dogs.

Jetphotos or Airliners?

[Mellyrose]

HALT. Before anyone answers that, remember...JUST ANSWER THE QUESTION - NO DEBATES.

[SoPictureThis]

HAHAHA some of these questions are absolutely absurd...I like that...

Melanie -- a wise use of the moderative powers right there; things could have easily become ugly if it weren't for me being the next person to respond!

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

well, let's just disregard nwafan20's question...as that boy has some VERY silly opinions :P (you should be able to think of atleast 582923882.8 things I'm talking about Matt...) :roll:


here...I'll start it up again:

worse airliner livery: El Al Cargo or Uzbekistan Airlines????

[nwafan20]

Josh, it was a simple question, what do you like uploading to? It's not that hard to answer and wasn't meant to incite debate....

Worst livery ever has to be CitgoJet (DL new scheme)

What is your favorite type of food?

[SoPictureThis]

NOTE: Matthew -- "Jetphotos or Airliners" is NOT a simple question. Though you may have had fair intent, this question does not incite the same sort of reply as what you mentioned in your statement following my post would. What you asked proposes the idea of one site being superior to the other, thus implying an individual's overall belief that one of the two is best...a VERY heated topic amongst us aviation enthusiasts. Due to the fact your original question is infact a rather strong instigatorial remark, it was quickly flagged by Melanie as potentially trouble-causing. Perhaps it would be best to be a bit more clear next time, but overall, it should be apparent to you now that the whole "jetphotos.net vs airliners.net" concept is very much a heated topic. I'm surprised you didn't know that already.

Now, to comply with the request of the moderator, may we please continue to just answer questions? Fantastic!!



My favorite type of food is Mexican! Ole! :D
