OK, I'm not really sure why this post was erased. It's a video made by the United States Air Force about the most amazing training exercises performed by most allied countries air forces.
Rule # 13 I did not break. So we are allowed to make posts about Rise of Flight a  direct "Competition" Video game but I can't show a video of the USAF..
This is ridiculous. Is there a rule that states we are not allowed to post REAL LIFE aircraft and pilots.. 2nd video I've had removed, both about real life situations. I was banned from the forums for the first which was ludicrous. This video is in no way associated with a VIDEO GAME.. Ban me if you must, I will no longer pay $15 per month to play this game if I am..

Did you even look at the film??

Rule 10 doesn't allow punting.  Rule 13 is not to just post links without accompanying commentary.

Just posting a link without talking about it has been a way to get your post wiped away for quite some time now.

Wish i could see the link :(

FYI: Rule 13- Threads started devoid of commentary will not be allowed (i.e. links, cut-n-pastes, clicky, read this...)

Just add a sentence describing what the link is, all it needs.

I totally described the video. I said it was a training video for the USAF and all other allied countries participated. I also never punted this post..

Craneman, I would be best if you email Skuzzy directly to discuss this issue. I dont recall exactly what rule it is but there is one regarding the moderation of the forums and complaints about it or something to that effect.
Regardless talking to skuzzy directly will get you faster and usually more agreeable results than airing it out here.
He really is a decent guy with a crap job to do. AS mentioned previously the rule you violated would appear to be in regards to not having any commentary with a link or pic. IIRC the reason this rule was put into place was way back in the "golden" days of the o'club there were alot of threads started with just a title and a link and ppl went overboard with it. The other big thing was ppl creating a user  name and posting a link trying to spam the forum. It got to the point that it was taking way to much time sifting thru it to find which ones were legit and which ones were spam.

I included a brief description about the video on the original post. I never punted this post. I'm still trying to figure out why it was erased.

Sorry about the USA only thing. They must restrict the viewing to Americans because it shows a lot of information on many aspects of the training itself.
Some things we may not want certain countries to see.
