I was a regular on the Battlefront General forums discussing the socio-politico-military topics of the day. (Great game, CM, by the way.) A few months ago the mods over there got sick of having to moderate some of the whinier children and split us off into a separate Political Forum. I thought we were doing well and playing pretty nicely but they shut us down a couple of days before Thanksgiving and pointed their PF link to here (after getting permission I think).

Anyway, here I am.

What is this "PDF" you speak of? Sounds like an interesting place to check out for entertainment if nothing else.

I was hunting on the net on some info about Pakistan Army regiments, when i stumbled on some PDF or PMF responses. I found them pretty hillarious and wanted to join the forum, but there was some 'divine' intervention when I typed the web address, and I was directred to WAB.

This is a sane place, and great interacting with different nationalities and views. I would have been baned at PDF with my first few posts.

I've heard WAB was owned by a regular from PDF... whats the story?

I came here when Ironduke (as Ironman) mentioned the board's name sometime on PDF. Made a few posts, never stopped.

LOL Asim, you are referring to the one Gio doesn't like to name
The old WAB was owned by Ameer Kiani who is a mod at PDF I think. He didn't feel like paying anymore, so Gio took over.

Yeah, that's him. A while back, Lull had stated that he ended up being shipped back to Pakistan, into a forced marriage....couldn't have happened to a better guy.

Lemon,

I could never access PDF. Apparently, Indian ids are not accepted.

This is news that WAB was a Pakistani owned show. I hope it is not now though.

oh yeah that little turd is "engaged" to be married!

Daddy got his ass in a bind already just so the male bonding affections of the wahabbi mulla + the "irrestible" fat snake don't unneccessarily charm little Kiani, atleast not in the wrong ways!

Hell I could have taken him personally to the Boston Arch diocese to meet John Geoghan and gotten him acquainted with the 'cool' clergy!

Theology, plus god-damn man/ boy love might have rubbed on him!

Wonder what Terrorboy would prefer. 1. A confession booth & some privacy or 2. right in front of the other Madrassah kids.

Just curious, but should we just keep this in PM? I'm not sure how much everyone else appreciates the convo...

If you keep it PM, let me know, I'm interested because the little liar/terror got me banned from a board (not WAB), and if he ever heads back this way, I would like to know about it. He got away before I could get a hold to him.

Don't know how he was, but hes pretty decent on our UPK Forums... thats how I got to know. Ray, UPK is a Pakistani run show as well. I can assure you, you can have an ID like Jay Hind and you won't get kicked (not advertising just making a point)

So no sneakyness was involved? Coz I got the impression that he was tricked into it....

He might be on a purely mullah site known as pak mil. Ask around someone may have the url to it.
