Canada purchased an enterprise license for the platform we write our software on a few years back. They can buy it if they want lol. We already have made some contacts and progress with other commonwealth nations (again ... the fucking company we are licensed with is in Australia).

So yea. Your tax dollars. My pocket. Suck it.

Well the fact that you refuse to even read what I have said or refute it in anyway, when what I say is the most logical and reasonable (and factual) response...


If you’d go back and read my posts you will plainly see my main contention was your ludicrous assertion that you know about warfare because you mod a computer game (and that I don’t consider you an expert regardless). note MOD, you didn’t even make the game yourself. So yeah, im sure if I wanted to know a few technical details, say the ballistic differences between rifles with 5.56 compared to 7.62 at 150m in pixels you might have an opinion that isn’t completely worthless.

No, I do not rate your opinion outside your little video game because your posting history does not indicate that I should. I find your assertion that the US spends money on defence so the rest of us don’t to be largely nonsense, simply because the US’ main priority with defence spending is the furthering of its own interests, and if they happen to coincide with the interests of other nations, that is coincidental. Indeed I can think of a few areas where those interests have been downright harmful to your “allies”. I find your implied comparison between yourself and RAND to be quite laughable. You have absolutely no metric (either professional or educational) to measure your knowledge and opinion by, and I do not find your history of posts to indicate being particularly trustworthy with regards to making reasonable inferences/analyses from information provided (Trancer-X was also a “huge” reader.) I might be unfair in this analysis, but I am simply working with what you have given me over the last few years.

Yes, Lilith made a single mistake with her mischaracterisation of what LIC happens to mean but I find lil’s analysis of your persona generally to be reasonably accurate, and given you have never served in the military nor worked in any field related to warfare or its analysis i place no significant weight in your opinions, other than those I have briefly alluded to above.

It it funny you should mention this because your armchair warfare expertise is reminiscent of those same false experts exhibited in CTs on a regular basis.

But hey man, im just trolling.

I also talk to the main developers regularly on Skype, including the CEO of BIS.

All I said is that if the US didn't have such a capable military, other nations that have relied on us in the past, or could rely on us in the future would be spending more on their domestic forces. Where is the fallacy in that?

The issue is Lilith claimed to be more of an expert than I am because she buys stocks. Fucking buys stocks. LOL. I wasn't comparing myself to RAND either you fuckwit. She said that only people in the military can be experts on the military. I gave her a glaring example of where she is wrong.

If you want to test me, ask me a question, I will be more than happy to answer it.

no lilith said she can probably get the same education you can on the military by following the paper trail hen she invests in stocks. shes probably right. you have no training, no education, youre an obsessive compulsive and a chickenhawk. Reading a few books on the military does not mkae you an expert. Reading a few books on psychology does not make you a psychologist. Reading a few books on Real Estate does not make you an agent. Reading a few books on electricity does not make you an electrician. Reading a few books on nursing does not make you a nurse. Reading a few books on programmin does not make you a programmer. See nou i picked professions that ta's here work. They can all speak up and tell you themselves it took reading a few books a shit load of education and years of on the job experience to become their trade. You've only read a few books, and played a video game,...you know fuck all. We all very much do doubt you do anything for the military. We could care less about your stupid video game

So reading does not impart knowledge? Obviously you can not read Vivid. That sucks.

If we were talking about your capacity to make a decent mod for a game you didn’t develop, you wouldn’t find an argument from me. im sure youre really good at making minor adjustments to other people’s work.

Well your original comment seemed to be referencing Australia in particular, and you have “saved” us money by making us spend squillions on getting our soldiers killed in your wars. Our regional activities have had little or no subsidisation from the US or the UK, other than you to sell us second hand shit you don’t want any more. Having said that, im sure there are nato areas where you do subsidise the cost for other nations.

See, this is what I was talking about where you display a distinct inability to understand anything. the implication of your comment was that because RAND could do it, that meant you could too, fuckhead, as lilith’s comment was in reference to your lack of expertise and experience with warfare.

Do you know what our fucking mod even does? It totally replaces the VOIP system in the game... http://dev-heaven.net/projects/a2ts3/wiki Not only does it replace it, but it adds accurate simulations of military radio systems and takes into factors like terrain in determining signal quality (based off of a number of algorithms from groups like ITU and other researchers in radio propagation). We also fully simulate antenna gain patterns based off of real antenna designs used for these radios.

It also does dynamic volume gain on direct speaking voices and other things related to voice propagation to provide more immersion to the simulation.

Because its a game that does far more shit than any other game. You played with any of the patches yet, or with Operation Arrowhead? Game is much better.

My point was that if the US played no roll in the Oceanic region (which it would, if there was a major issue) then Australia wouldn't be buying second hand shit from us, but procuring new weapons systems on their own. The fact that they buy second hand shit from us pretty much goes on to prove that...

She said that she wouldnt take advice from a civilian, instead she would take it from a mercenary (LOL who the fuck even knows if the merc served in the military, a lot of mercs are fucking dead-head cops that want to play army man)... She was being fucking obtusely ignorant and stupid because she has some sort of personal issue with me (which I didn't have with her, till now).
