It is Still there (I'm stunned by surprise as well)
Collectors' Edition Issue 5 Euro Militaire 2008
Is it just my copy that's rubbish?
Probably I'm the only one who still thinks it is a bit odd tha the whole issue still revolves about the really daft photography ban while the real issue brought up in the threads both on Armorama and MM had the message... Why the Military Meddling Euromilitaire (not so) Special was utter crap.
Considering everything thats been said about this matter, this thread on MM particularly tickled me

I guess there will be more people taking a blind eye to this crap. I for one wont be buying the 'special', theres plenty of high quality pics on the net thanks, and they dont cost me a penny.
I had a call a few days ago from their marketing people asking me why I hadn't renewed my subscription. The chap sounded like a fairly decent guy, and I hadn't the heart to tell him exactly why as I am sure it would have spoiled his day.

Canadian girls are very hot, the beers flow before and afterwards
The simple fact is, there are some very sad, immature, jealous people out there, all upset for one reason or another, but all coming down to same reasons. Jealousy & greed.
What we don't need, is for those few hours every week that we do have to actually do something we enjoy doing, to be spoilt by a minority of self-important, selfish non-entites, who would rather spend their time attempting to spread the poison of their own little unhappy lives, to others.
For that reason I will continue to deny them access to this site and this community.
They are not welcome, and never will be. They are free to spread their poison on their own little sites. Perhaps thats what galls them more than anything. The fact that we don't care. We have the ability to block them out of our lives so that their poison only damages themselves and nobody else.
I don't care what they say on their own little sites. Little sites they have become because of their vile tactics and their own stupidity. I am extremely lucky to have been given the opportunity to do what I love doing for a living.... For that reason I can laugh off their snide remarks, since they're a result of jealousy. But I won't allow them to post here. Any of them. (Cackles Madly)
It's not tricky at all. They're not welcome here and I'm not going to discuss it. Nothing they are saying is constructive. It's just bile. End of.

I don't know how you sleep at night, but, I better be careful,
I mainly visit ML and armorama because its these two sites that have the best community and I get the best info. Best community? Well you may argue MM has the best community cos everyone on there seems to love each other, however what the hell is the point in that. The reason I love these sites is because you actually get constructive feedback, and constructive information, we dont have a load of people on here brown nosing each other, and kissing each others arses.

That alone would be enough for me if I was a new reader to his site or magazine to turn me off from wanting to go back, or go there in the first place.
Haha.......thanks for the show of support Mike.......and the alcohol content in the beer is higher than in the States.
Even though we have a relatively small show we have excellent modellers and modelling book authors attend on an annual basis....Tom Cockle, Jim Carswell, Gary Edmunson, and Steve Van Beveren..........and Dragon artists......Ron Volstad and Doug Jameson.
Time for the little shows all over to show just how much of a postive influence they have on all the other modellers inspite of the 2008 Euro scandal.
I'm afraid that the recent competing magazine articles (about EM) come across as rather sad and weak, and do not do those publications any favours. Surely a much bolder and stronger response would have been for them to take it like a man and not wimper and complain like a child. I am very sorry but I have no sympathy for them.
Well, for Michael and the other editors who felt badly treated at EM, the consensus (on the 'other' site) seems to be growing that you have little to complain about:

Sadly, I was (before this debacle started) very seriously considering going to EM. Now, i'll be going to Torrent instead and, if finances and SWMBO permit, the KMK show...
As active users of THIS site has effectively been banned from from their website, effectively, by implication, our presence is no longer welcome at EM either. Saves me the hassle of going to Folkestone....

Well it seems ive been banned from MM, not sure if anyone else is getting this, but if I try to go there it just says 'Service unavailable', truly spectacular in my opinion, and too think im the one being childish-because I dont agree on the stance they are taking on this matter. Oh well I guess I am only 20, what do I know about being mature etc etc
