Your to do list

Did you even check to see if others had already done those page?MoviePropMaster2008 17:52, 2 January 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, quite a few of those are already done. However, to be fair, my RoboCop and Blood Diamond pages are filled up mostly with screenshots from AVI rips of the movies, which is something I no longer do nowadays when I'm screencapping pages. If you have the DVDs of those movies and want to replace my low-res shots with higher-res versions, that's fine by me. -MT2008 18:05, 2 January 2009 (UTC)

Predator 2

Do you need help doing the links to the gun pages? I would recommend you look at other movie pages that have the same guns as in Predator, and copy and paste the text that links their pages. For instance, Patriot Games has the MP5A2, so you could hit "Edit" and copy-and-paste that text.

I don´t need help with that.- Oliveira 19:48, 4 January 2009 (UTC)
Don't ask me permission to replace the images. Go to it. I just did one test of an image to see how the size changed. It went from 703 KB to the low 200s. MoviePropMaster2008 22:42, 14 January 2009 (UTC)

The Dirty Dozen

I noticed you have Dirty Dozen on your to-do list. So do I. Do you want to do it or can I? It was actually the next movie I was going to do after End of Days. - Gunmaster45

Same with Great Escape, that was after DD.

No problem, just doing my job. Canned the user who posted it as well. Orca1 9904 19:20, 23 February 2009 (UTC)

Copyright violation

THANKS! I really appreciate it when IMFDB users give me heads up when other people are pirating my photos. Sure, I'm being a bit of a dick about it but copyright violation is a serious matter and I hate it when some guy uploads my photo and 'claims' it as his own. Thanks again! After all I shot all these images FOR IMFDB. I sent the guy a note to remove the image or else I would report it to the mods. Thanks again! :) MoviePropMaster2008 22:10, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

We Were Soldiers

Hey Oliveira, I id'ed the weapons in the screencaps on the talk page for you. Let me know if you need any thing else on We Were Soldiers. Also I will find out what the French Officers handgun was during the week. - Steve

Re: Model 24 Stielhandgranate

According to Wikipedia, the Model 24 Stielhandgranate was in service from the end of World War I through the end of World War II. Hope that answers your question. Orca1 9904 17:50, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

Barack Obama

I am probably the only one that likes him here.

No, man you aren't. My truck proudly displays a "Veteran for Obama" sticker. So don't take any shit off people for being a pro-gun Liberal. Thomas Jefferson was a pro-gun liberal, as was the late, great Hunter S. Thompson. Keep your powder dry! -J --DOHC Holiday 22:20, 25 May 2009 (UTC)

I don't hate Obama either. Its refreshing to have a president who isn't an incompetent fool. I also don't believe what people are saying about him trying to ban guns. It would be a stupid move on his part to go against what the majority of the U.S populace wants and it would cost too much (they'd have to pay for every gun taken and many people would be without jobs if the firearms industry was shut down.

Yay! i though that some anonymous stupid Ultra fundie conservative was gonna come in here bash my head in with rocks. Nice to see that there are no conservatives like the ones in conservapedia in here. Hell, all the conservatives in here are good guys too.Oliveira 23:49, 26 May 2009 (UTC)
I don't vote based on party. If the candidate is a stupid d-bag, I won't vote for them, but if I determine them to be worth it I would, if I could vote-S&Wshooter 00:19, 27 May 2009 (UTC)
That's how you vote!Oliveira 00:29, 27 May 2009 (UTC)

I'm a supporter for most of Obama's policies, but I can't believe he is trying to do something as ridiculous as this. -500Magnum

Hope you don't mind, Oliveira, but I moved the discussion from your user page to your talk page.
As far as Obama goes, I don't like him, don't consider myself a liberal, and am less than enthusiastic about his presidency, but I don't think it's going to be as bad as many of my fellow conservatives believe. Obama is still a politician who is bound by the limits of presidential politics in this country. We aren't going to wake up one day and find that America is now the Democratic Republic of Obamastan just because he got elected. (and I know I'm preaching to the choir on this) -MT2008 04:16, 27 May 2009 (UTC)
Thanks MT2008. I have some things i don't like about him such as the fact that he has done nothing about nuclear weapons. He said that we should pursue a "world without nuclear weapons"(and that's a quote) but he still has done nothing about them.Oliveira 15:44, 28 May 2009 (UTC)

Too many screencaps

I Don't know if you've been following this debate on IMFDB but there is actually a limit on how many screencaps are useful on a page. When you have too many screencaps, especially of the same gun, it is no longer educational, but painful to scroll down endlessly to get to the next section. Just thought you should know that too many screenshots is not encouraged. Thanks :) MPM2008

I try to keep a 10 or 15 screencap limit but sometimes i fuck up. I am sorry.Oliveira 17:34, 29 May 2009 (UTC)
