Eurofighter Typhoon shenanigans
When you literally add "if you commit real life treason, we will ban you from our videogame forums" and it still doesn't work.

A community for your defence shitposting needs
Rules
1. Be nice
Do not make personal attacks against each other, call for violence against anyone, or intentionally antagonize people in the comment sections.
2. Explain incorrect defense articles and takes
If you want to post a non-credible take, it must be from a "credible" source (news article, politician, or military leader) and must have a comment laying out exactly why it's non-credible. Low-hanging fruit such as random Twitter and YouTube comments belong in the Matrix chat.
3. Content must be relevant
Posts must be about military hardware or international security/defense. This is not the page to fawn over Youtube personalities, simp over political leaders, or discuss other areas of international policy.
4. No racism / hatespeech
No slurs. No advocating for the killing of people or insulting them based on physical, religious, or ideological traits.
5. No politics
We don't care if you're Republican, Democrat, Socialist, Stalinist, Baathist, or some other hot mess. Leave it at the door. This applies to comments as well.
6. No seriousposting
We don't want your uncut war footage, fundraisers, credible news articles, or other such things. The world is already serious enough as it is.
7. No classified material
Classified ‘western’ information is off limits regardless of how "open source" and "easy to find" it is.
8. Source artwork
If you use somebody's art in your post or as your post, the OP must provide a direct link to the art's source in the comment section, or a good reason why this was not possible (such as the artist deleting their account). The source should be a place that the artist themselves uploaded the art. A booru is not a source. A watermark is not a source.
9. No low-effort posts
No egregiously low effort posts. E.g. screenshots, recent reposts, simple reaction & template memes, and images with the punchline in the title. Put these in weekly Matrix chat instead.
10. Don't get us banned
No brigading or harassing other communities. Do not post memes with a "haha people that I hate died… haha" punchline or violating the sh.itjust.works rules (below). This includes content illegal in Canada.
11. No misinformation
NCD exists to make fun of misinformation, not to spread it. Make outlandish claims, but if your take doesn’t show signs of satire or exaggeration it will be removed. Misleading content may result in a ban. Regardless of source, don’t post obvious propaganda or fake news. Double-check facts and don't be an idiot.

MODERATORS
No force is stronger than the autistic urge to correct something that is wrong in the special area of interest.
Damn straight...

AGAIN?
If I had a nickel every time someone posted classified documents in the WarThunder forums I would have ~~2~~ ~~3~~ Enough.
Disagreeing with the moderators is also against the rules.
At least they admit it.
They didn't say disagreeing with moderators, they said disagreeing with moderation.
I read that as: You can disagree with how a mod applies the rules and challenge that. You can't disagree with the rules themselves, the rules are the rules, take it or leave it.
And personally I think complying with NATO export restrictions seems like a good rule.

When are we getting them alien tech?
Somebody please leak them.
Someone comes along with a "You primitive earthlings! The ØXÇ-57 Plasma Cannon has a much faster cool down. [Link to schematics]"
probably the most compelling evidence that aliens have not visited Earth, if they did then technical documentation would have been leaked on warthunder forums.
Can we get an alien-themed DLC or something just to make sure?

War thunder UAP expansion when?
They're all UAPs if you don't know what they are!
"Good thing I'm not a real pilot. My eyesight sucks."
someone posting the tic-tac specs to win a shitpost argument would epic
No point in leaking that data if you can't go "look, that alien ship is wrong. Here is the technical doc to prove it"

All of this has happened before, and it will happen again.
What's next in the rotation? Helicopters?
Tanks are on track.
Naval is on the horizon.
Planes will go around again.
So say we all!
Opsec? What's that?
I always wonder if those leaks lead to wikipedia improvements on the given topics somewhere down the line
Wiki requires citation. It's pretty easy for a government to have someone go in there and revert it for being uncited.

What's the current record for days since leak?
Seventeen
For real?
I know nothing of this game, except I’ve heard at least three instances where this happened and it always makes me chuckle.
There were at least 14 according to Wikipedia.
For real?
... Checks community name ... Yeah, I'll buy it.
I met a Eurofighter Typhoon pilot once. Having made the Airfix model as a child, I was suitably impressed.
And yet in that same timeline Okami 2 has been announced 18 years after the release of the first game so as long France postpone its warning shot until the game release and I can finish it, I'm ok with that ^^

I wonder if War Thunder forums will be one of the things Russia will keep allowing connections to (they're planning to get off the wider 'net), since it's such a treasure trove for classified info on other countries' arsenals.
Disconnecting the country from it doesn't mean their government won't have access...
Simply put: no. It doesn't make any sense.
Russia as a whole will not be cut from the internet. North Korea isn't cut from the internet. The public is. And the public does not need this information
Geez, again?!
