what the hell happened?
I was doing an on site training class, and I come back to this? I'm fairly sure I didn't say anything offensive in the last day or two.
Eek!
Edit: my blackbird story from last year that had 92k page views without ever being front paged was shared to the front page many many months after it was written. Wow. Will respond to folks later.
I've never seen anything like this. Most notifications I've ever had before was in the 30's.

Your (once again) Blackbird post inspired me today.

Someone needs to compile a list of every place that was posted. Googling the URL shows it was posted a crapton on various aviation forums and at least twice on popular imgur posts plus the FP today. Jeebus.

My dear boy, by any chance did you get my comment from a couple of days ago?

I haven't. When I'm back at the hotel I'll look and respond. Been on the road and haven't had a lot of time. Notifications and commenting on Mobil have been very wonky the last couple of days.

Please take your time. It's still in the working process. It's a draft, so naturally it will be a little messy and unfinished. It's in the drafts under my personal blog (not Oppo). Have a great trip, cheers! :)

I can't see anything which is in your personal drafts. Sorry. Been away from here for a while. And will only be checking sporadically for the next couple of days.

After a quick read through, it seems quite good. I didn't read for error proofing or spelling, but the content is very interesting and is an enlightening read in and of itself. It sounds like you put a lot of work into this. Thank you for sharing.

The post has been deleted to prevent nosy hackers from taking a squiz. Thank you for checking for me. My family and friends are helping me with that post because I don't have much eyesight left to do all the work on my own. I'm hoping to finish it by next week. :)

Herr Sam, the post is still in the works (it's not easy to work with only one eye left). I'm fact-checking and revising the post. Although the post is still hakenkreuze-laded, it's becoming less sensitive. Do you still want me to include the warning before the jump?

It's your call. I'd include something about the nature of the post in the introduction, but ultimately, I would say it is entirely up to you. Perhaps just preface the subject?

* rubs chin, looks hopelessly at my service dog for help * Mmm-hmm, okay, very well. I'll decide once the post is finalised. I don't want to include the bold warning because it will ruin the post. I'll hint a warning in the introduction before the jump. Thank you.

I just reached… 1935. OH! * sighs, grumbles * Anyway, I have a quick question for you. According to my memo, several power-abusing "moderators" lost their poo over people not including a citation for a book or website excerpt. I want to add a very, very important quote from Mein Kampf to the top of the post, but I want to keep it a mystery for the readers to figure out who wrote it. So, I'd like to move the citation to the bottom of the post. Or do I have to include the citation immediately after the quote? Thanks and cheers! :)

Citations are typically done at the bottom of a post to go along with a superscript number at the end of the quote. That's the way it's is taught for any sort of academic writing, starting in high-school. Pretty simple, really.
Side note: Why is moderators in quotations? And I've never seen a moderator abusing their powers. What's that about?

Achh! I missed this one. Use the block quotes tool, say that the citation is sourced at the end of the article, make sure to include it there... Also, I believe that technically, the book is in the public domain, even if it is restricted in areas. =)

Guten morgen, Herr Sam. Oh, ah, very well, consider it done. Oi, check this out. Looks like I'm going to drop a bombshell on OppositeLock. Annnd I'm barely halfway through 1936, haha. :D

That's for the toned-down version for OppositeLock. :P The non-toned-down version for our forum has a lot more words because it contains more, uh, "inappropriate material".

Herr Sam, I'm about to reach 1938… Only two more years to cover. Unfortunately, I don't think my second eye will last very long. If something happens, Giorgio will take over, finish my post and publish it to the community. I'd appreciate it if you guard my authorship until then. Cheers.

If Americans never bombed Deutschland during the war, there would be a cure for retinitis pigmentosa by now. Thanks Roosevelt! Thank you.

Herr Sam, the one and only best moderator on OppositeLock. My eyesight is too dark to see very much, which means my time is near. It was a great pleasure working with you. Thank you and cheers! :)
P.S. I would expect the you-know-what post to go live this month. Giorgio will give you the heads up before it goes live.

I would be lying if I said I didn't enjoy the work. I am sorry to hear that your eyesight is continuing to get worse. I do hope that you stay positive and that perhaps that some good news regarding this ailment and issue comes your way.
Thank you for the note and for all of the pictures and posts. =)

I've been positive about it. Negativity is not the way to go, otherwise it will affect everyone, especially my son and husband. Thank you for the kind words. * plants a kiss on Sam's cheek *
