Initiative: Commentator of the Year Contest

So, dear readers and commenters, since the year 2019 is slowly everything, we decided to hold such a competition: “Commentator of the Year” at the end of it.

In general, it is no secret that we have readers who are able to write another article in the comments. And very often this is not an attempt to tell everyone that borscht (in the sense of the article) did not come from the word “completely”, but a real supplement based on personal experience or in-depth study of the issue in the rank of a hobby.

Yes, there are fewer such people, but they still exist. Therefore, we would like to ask your opinion and mark these readers with memorable gifts. Like in a normal competition.

Why "readers"? Because we have several sections. Of course they are as different as historical part may differ from the analytical. But both there and there are their "piranha feathers." Why not make several nominations, more precisely, three? “Analytics”, “Armament”, “History”. Each can have its own “Commentator of the Year”.

How do we propose to do this?

In your comments you fill out three points:
1. Nick on the site.
2. The section in which the author commented.
3. Why and how you liked the author (3-6 sentences, brief description).

Next, we carefully study what your candidate wrote about and how, and in the absence of any doubt, we submit the candidate for further consideration.

I especially draw attention to the fact that we have a certain number of visitors who love to catch up with our ratings and reduce to others. Gentlemen from the Order of Poking in the Minus, I ask you to be prudent and not spoil the New Year's mood to others.

So we do not catch up with our "pluses" (in the sense of recommendations), especially since the comments will be carefully studied by the authors from the relevant sections and the decision will be made collectively.

We hope that this initiative will appeal to all lovers of good and useful posts. We are waiting for your opinions.

The results will be announced on December 30 and announced in a separate material.

I welcome the initiative! Yes literate diminished, where is Domoki, where is Ascetic? Lopatov sometimes appears, I give my vote to Lopatov in the "Armaments" section

[serg.shishkov2015]

Totally agree with you! Without our master, BO is boring! I AM FOR LOPATOVA!

[bnm.99]

I am also for Lopatov! To the chief artilleryman of the site - honor and respect!

[ℳy ℒiƒℯ]

I give my vote to Lopatov in the "Armaments" section

In my opinion Donavi definitely number 1

[Aristarkh Lyudvigovich]

The nickname Donavi49 will be correct. He really in the news section mainly comments correctly and competently.

[Hunter 2]

Good afternoon! I offer MICHMAN (Yuri Grigorovich Shatrakov, Professor, Doctor of Technical Sciences, Member of the Russian Academy of Sciences. Cavalier of many Orders and Medals, Laureate of Two State Prizes, author of many scientific articles, holder of several Patents, Honored Worker of Science! (Maybe I forgot all the regalia).
Michman - writes interesting, thoughtful comments, I always read them with interest! Especially stories about his own life and meeting interesting people.
He made a huge contribution to the defense of our country (USSR, RUSSIA). Such a forum member - The site should be proud!
ps Michman - wrote more than three thousand comments on the site!

[Vladimir16]

Aristarkh Ludwigovich, your comments are also interesting to read. You can agree, you can hold a different opinion, but I am interested in reading your comments. Often I learn a lot for myself.
From me to you

[Aristarkh Lyudvigovich]

Vladimir Thank you This year, two of my articles were published by the site administration after editing, thanks to them for supporting such undertakings. Writing for me is just a hobby, a hobby, but no more.

Aristarkh Ludwigovich, your comments are also interesting to read.

And I will vote for the cat-dog. Golovan Jack = Cat Man Null = Consultant = Not bad = Rusland. And that's not all. Or for Meehan in all his guises, the last Starper 777. Today they are the face of the site, or ... It doesn't matter. But such obstinacy definitely deserves the "Order of the Burnt Sofa".

The other two have nothing to do with me.
If you still have questions - you can always ask their site administration.

But you out of habit continue to breed haze on the forum. Not good. Indiscriminately.

One of the most interesting and professional commentators on the site, I, if not the oldest on the site, then one of the few remaining (registered at VO when he was half a year old), I will express my humble opinion ... this is VAF (later Ancient) , Rudolph, NN52 (although he is unpleasant to me as a person, but a good knowledgeable pilot), Andrey from Chelyabinsk, and probably Lopatov, at least often argued with him.
But I will not vote for anyone, considering it stupid. The value of wise and efficient commentary, opinion is not in the pluses and not in the titles, but in the discussion potential, both of the opinion itself and in the commentator. Now, very often a thread in a topic turns into a set of slogans, frank srach, snapping trolls, well, crying why do we live so badly in Russia. When VO just started, there were a lot of really professionals who could share their knowledge, their opinions, debate without rushing into a skirmish. It was interesting to read branches with sensible articles and clever comments. But almost all of them left VO. Alas, there is no longer that cool, interesting, informative VO site, and apparently will not be anymore. Which certainly upsets me.
Now, alas, I must admit that when reading today's articles on the site, you understand that once a cool site where people with interesting opinions, fates, experience and knowledge (which made VO unique) gathered, it disappeared forever.
It will probably be stupid ... but with both hands I would vote for that VO, the sample of 2012.

Sergei! I read the article and comments ...
I suppose that the admins calculated you at the very beginning of the hobby group, but decided to pump the topic because of the hype, which we actually achieved. They also have their own struggle for rating.
With regards to the actions of your group, of course, joining together easily drive any commentator into a minus.
You took on the authority of a moderator.
But we are a site for communication, and not for struggle, for expressing our point of view and for pleasant leisure and relaxation.
Question.
Why do you need it?
Is monetization of group actions possible?
What is the benefit? Or is it not a matter of profit, but of getting pleasure from making commentators minus and the ability to influence the actions of their followers?
Special thanks for the link to the article.

[Svarog51]

Vyacheslav The point here is that people in uniform understand the power of unification. Pros and cons - production costs. The moderators were also in the know. One of them paid for the job. There was no and no monetization from the word - at all. Only voluntary and non-refundable participation. Benefit? Well, how can I tell you? I personally have made so many new friends across all the expanses of our country and even abroad. Probably - it was worth it. Influence on friends - not, not mine. They are already successful people and have their own point of view, but to prevent skirmishes between them - yes. Let them respect the opinions of others, and not just their own. The rest is no different from the Army Charter, everyone knows who has joined. Violations are punished more strictly than on the site. Until expulsion from the Order. Well, since we were rehabilitated, then we do not pose a threat to the site. Rather, we protect it from completely frostbitten. Something like that.

[Qwertyarion]

Quote: Svarog51

I believe that your group has entered into an agreement with the site administration.
Obviously, some of the obligations you made to the administration of the HE have become the price of rehabilitation.
Well, okay, this is your business, the main thing is that the principles of freedom of speech and opinion are not unshakable on the VO site.

[Svarog51]

No, there was no conversation and no obligations either. The rules of the site are unshakable, the rest is according to the rules, and they have changed significantly since then. Now I can pay the epaulettes for deliberate plusing, even if I consider you my friend and associate. And for the minus - the punishment has not changed.

[Svarog51]

[The leader of the Redskins]

I first found out about the site in 2013 and visited it solely for the sake of articles on military equipment. Politics was then mundane and, in its own way, boring. I looked into that section a couple of times and that's all ...
I registered three years ago when I accidentally read some opus about Ukraine and realized that it was mostly a lie.
My father is near Kiev. Some of my acquaintances from childhood remained. All normal, adequate people against the vilification of which I often stand up. Probably, I received the "general" only a few days ago, when those who registered at the same time with me are already "marshals"
But interesting and high-quality articles on technology have become less ... much less ...

[Vladimir16]

Leader of the Redskins, congratulations on the general's red bloomers!
No one denigrates anyone.
People are rather indignant over the mess and lawlessness that the humpbacked and his surrounding Codla arranged.
In Kiev, the same villains were at that time at the top, as in Moscow.
Otherwise, they would not have cut the country into pieces.

People always want to live better, and some on this make their careers and loot. They probably think that they are immortal. It struck my head that, having divided into parts, we will enter paradise.
It turned out - nonsense.

At least here, on the site, we can discuss and listen to each other.

Now choose the most popular speaker!

Hooray! to everyone who is here, and to everyone who is here!

You can completely agree with your opponent, and after a few hours you can see that you have 5-10 minuses, and he has one. Therefore, to comment is already lazy.
So I agree with the above. Meehan - this is the main commentator on the current site! He has continuous slogans, but at least everything is honest and open, without pretense of a certain intellect. Therefore, it is perceived with humor more

DD!

Because we have several sections:

,,, even in the sections themselves there are forum users of a narrow orientation, so to speak. And sections need to be divided into subsections

Olgovich (Andrey) on the history of RI. Whatever the attitude to him in disputes about pre-revolutionary Russia, he defends his point of view with reason, without rudeness and to the end.

Trilobite Master (Michael) on the history of ancient Russia (and not only), will give odds to many commentators.

Undecim (Victor) we can say "omnivorous" "electronic archive" Sometimes there is nothing to object to his comments.

Dooplet11 (Alexander) weapons → aircraft. According to the characteristics of the aircraft, his specifically specific in-depth comments give him the person who saw the planes not only in the sky.
,,, here is my opinion in the remaining sections did not take an active part, did not belong, was not involved

[Phil77]

Good morning everyone! Sergey, and let me join in. I agree on all points.

Olgovich (Andrey) on the history of the Republic of Ingushetia. Whatever the attitude to him in disputes about pre-revolutionary Russia, he defends his point of view with reason, without rudeness and to the end.

Unfortunately, I can’t vote for him, because I think that this character is not objective, and does not even try to be one. He has a wealth of knowledge, yes. But he drives this knowledge under his own predilections. He never questions his own point of view, which is completely unacceptable for an objective researcher. He is not trying to get to the bottom of the truth. In addition, in relation to the characters he dislikes (the Bolsheviks and the whole Soviet period of history), he releases completely unacceptable boorish formulations, emphasizing his squeamish and biased attitude. And that would be bearable if it was not about our people, but about some fascists. But in this case we are talking about a significant part of our Russian people. Maybe the actions and beliefs of these people in the modern sense are far from correct, but this does not give us the right to interfere with the dirt. Among these people are our fathers and grandfathers. Many of them were ideological communists. These are their beliefs, and they must be respected, because these are first of all our ancestors and our countrymen.

[Pessimist22]

It should be noted that people then in the first few decades of the USSR worked practically for nothing, for the sake of an idea, for the sake of future generations, they really endured all the hardships and hardships, increasing the heritage of their ancestors, and then the nomenclature, stagnation and what we have at the moment ...

The truth, of course, is the same for everyone, but for everyone it is different.

for example, just from memory?

Recall, by the way, the wording of comments on the state power of Russia BEFORE 1917. There you will find wow what! And, is that already normal?
But she, together with the people, at the very least, built the largest country in the world, they fought in countless wars for it, it was then that our people formed

Maybe the actions and beliefs of these people in the modern sense are far from correct, but this does not give us the right mix them with dirt.

What are you saying? Our Russian people are holy peoplethe best in the world- regardless of time and ticket.

And, is that already normal?

This is not the norm, and my proposed candidates for the title of the best commentators did not allow such attacks both in the direction of the tsarist government and in the direction of the Soviet one. That is why I believe that you should not be among the applicants.
For the remaining comments, I think it does not make sense to continue the debate, so that it does not develop into another srach. If you consider this my refusal to surrender and the lack of arguments - so be it. And I believe that the site admins will judge us.

[The Sparkle]

Or maybe in this thread they will write a comment article and win the contest?)))

[Per se.]

How do we propose to do this?

In your comments you fill out three points:
1. Nick on the site.
2. The section in which the author commented.
3. Why and how you liked the author (3-6 sentences, brief description).

According to the scheme proposed by the editors, I did not find anything like this in the comments already made, no three points. Is a new poll supposed, which I did not catch, or is the editorial initiative doomed from the outset under such conditions? Probably, any opinion of "readers" will be subjective, will not give an objective picture. In my opinion, the editorial board itself should propose applicants for these points, and the rest would have voted or already added. Also, personally, I would like to see a clear difference where is "Armament" and where is "History", which fits in the section "Opinion", that in "Analytics".

Speaking about comments, you need to distinguish between a direct comment on an article and a comment on a comment. In any case, argumentation is important, both in terms of supplementation and objection.

Quote: Per se.

I think somehow dodge. There will be no new poll, just choose what people write. The main thing here is that they express themselves on the topic, rather than whining as if everything is bad.

Quote: Per se.

Probably, any opinion of "readers" will be subjective, will not give an objective picture.

To a certain degree. But nevertheless, it will be an opinion. The man said, for example, about Andrey from Chelyabinsk. It is a little incorrect, Andrey is still the author, although he is also a commentator. Why not? This statement is supported by "pluses" by 6 more people, for example. That is, already seven. Subjectively? In my opinion, no.

Quote: Per se.

the editorial office itself should propose applicants on these points, while the rest would vote or have already supplemented.

Well, no, it's the readers choice, not the editorial board. If we wanted to choose for ourselves, we would have done so, and we would have no need for additions. The question here is exactly what those who read should choose.

Laughs heartily, crying, crying miserably:

She sings, walks, plays tricks.
A heart particle in grams weighs little,
But the whole world will open before you.

Mysterious Russian soul…
He knows how to be sad, tearfully, quietly.
It happens weak, little coward
And the body is warming, barely breathing.

And it can take off in full breadth,
Free song pour in the open,
Raging like a stormy sea
And to be calm, affectionate, like calm.

And then I constantly fly into the ban due to the fault of one (one) hz the admin of your site according to the absolutely personal preferences of this admin. So tell us what exactly will be doubtful for you. And then it is unfair and biased looks. Although the idea is really gorgeous.

ps 1 Since there was an opportunity to speak out, I would like to urge everyone to be more tolerant and respectful of each other, to discuss the topics of articles, and not the qualities of opponents, to cite documents as arguments, not emotions.

To spite everyone, I want to name three people worthy of the promotion of the Opus website, Kaptsov, and Andrey from Chelyabinsk! Maybe the site administration will separately encourage them?

[Trilobite Master]

I don’t know why to fence a garden with the definition of nominees, discussions, etc.
Do you want to know the commentator of the year according to users - divide the rating points scored during the year by the number of comments (who has it at least, say, a hundred or two, three, at the discretion), which is easier? The average mark for a comment is objective and impartial. The top ten results are in the studio.
Plus, I would also introduce the "Comment of the Year" nomination, i.e. the comment with the highest positive rating on the plus or minus system. Naturally, the comment itself should be quoted.
I also propose to introduce the nominations "Most Popular Commentator" and "Most Popular Commentary", where the assessment will be carried out by adding the pros and cons, i.e. if the comment received five pluses and three minuses, then it receives eight points under this system. Naturally, also take the arithmetic mean of the commentators and the absolute value of the comments. It would be interesting to see the results.
The same can be done with authors - nominations "Author of the Year" and "Most Popular Author". Author of the Year - Average number of pluses per article. Most Popular Author - Average number of views per article. There are not many authors, so you can consider all of them.
Divided into sections ... Well, it is also possible, of course, but this is, in my opinion, delights. We need an absolute champion!
And what is being offered here and now is some kind of democracy. So only the president can be chosen, and not engage in serious affairs.

[dauria]

The average mark for a comment is objective and impartial.

Yes, yes ... "Professor" with "Voyaka" is not to be envied. Although there were in history Giordano Bruno and Copernicus. They were treated objectively, and mind you - also by a majority vote It is a pity, the "professor" is not the same. The teeth must have fallen out. And Atalefa is not.
They started nonsense, gentlemen, administrators. And the quality of "comments" has become thinner.

[ProkletyiPirat]

All this is useless because the tops will be occupied by small comments with slogans and without useful information, and it would often be unrealistic to count sometimes it happened that one topic was spread over several articles with many branches, for example, this was with ships, tanks and aircraft with VVPZ (this is what I personally remembered, so there are more such cases). In general, comments are in principle unsuitable for adequate discussion (there are forums for this).

[evgen1221]

Another five cents to the transparency of the regulation - already in the discussion of this article can everyone see a long strip (comment deleted) in connection with this question? Who was deleted and what was there (flood and insults personally to commentators and site admins or the next deletion of a comment as not fitting into the worldview of a particular admin who deleted this comment? But what if this erased comment would have gained a lot of pluses from the erased comment agree with the author? How about this to be?
And yet, what to do with some commentators who constantly sit and write comments, but there is nothing in them from the commentator’s own position, but only ctrl c ctrl v quotes from other sites with the same semantic errors of machine translation of the original? And from such a commentator at best, a couple of phrases from the series himself? And according to the rules, such a person has many times more chances to get a prize because he often writes and seems to be on business, but in fact it’s not him but someone else from the network?

[WIKI]

Quote: evgen1221

often writes and it seems to be the case, but in fact it’s not him, but someone else from the network?

For me, it’s more informative and meaningful to read a short and concise commentary, with confirmation from online information, rather than a long and empty set of words. Figures and facts are the best arguments for confirming your opinion and refuting another.

[evgen1221]

So yes, I agree with you. But as they say, there are some nuances in relation to the initiative being discussed, and regarding the copies of quotes themselves, starting with the fact that on the network, if you wish, you can find a logically sound opinion confirming both for and against any fact, and ending with the question of the personal opinion of such authors, links I don’t need to post a lot of mind and education on this subject, and there are questions for some xeroxes. And in essence of your answer, I absolutely agree, brevity and conciseness in the matter is an extremely useful trait of a person’s character. It’s often necessary to write a lot of text so that the subscriber understands without discrepancies what they want to tell him about, and this is not bad and not good, it is a given.

[faterdom]

I am for Michman.
Feels like "Bison" Graninsky.
Such people have something to be proud of and have something to say. They have something to read / listen to. Often, besides them, no one else will tell some important facts.

It's an interesting idea, but I usually don't have the habit of memorizing or writing down the authors of the comments that interest me. Yes, there are individuals who, due to the abundance of comments, are kept in memory, as for example (no offense, purely for example): Golovan Jack, Svarog, Olgovich, Gardamir, Sylvester. But this does not mean that their comments are among the "best" in my opinion. And to shovel the site in search of the author, whose comment "sunk into the soul" ...

I have several nominees for the military branches.

1. Artillery
1. Shovels (Shovels)
2. News, Opinions, Analytics, Armaments
3. Familiar with both domestic types of mortars, self-propelled guns, self-propelled guns, MLRS, and with imported samples. Well familiar not only with the performance characteristics, but also with the tactics of use. He fought.

2. Air Defense
1. Nikolaevich I (Vladimir)
2. News, Opinions, Analytics, Armaments
3. Encyclopedic knowledge about different types of military and technical equipment. Just the last time I saw him in the topic about the Torah-M2. Able to cheer up not only the interlocutor, but also the reader.

3. Strategic Missile Forces, strategic nuclear forces (Nuclear Triad)
1. Old26 (Vladimir)
2. News, Opinions, Analytics, Armaments
3. Everyone who read his comments can confirm the level of his knowledge.

4. Aviation
1. As many as two applicants: NN52 (Dmitry), dauria (Alex)
2. News, Opinions, Analytics, Armaments
3. In the event of an incident with military aircraft in Russia from NN52, we always usually find out the final and, alas, not a comforting verdict in the event of the death of pilots. And, of course, his opinion for me is decisive in any discussion of MiG aircraft.
dauria, in turn, is well acquainted with the Iranian Air Force, with the capabilities of its aircraft manufacturing and not only industry. Both are military pilots, with Alexei the son followed in the footsteps of his father.

5. Tanks
1.svp67 (Sergey)
2. News, Opinions, Analytics, Armaments
3. Well acquainted with all models of Soviet and Russian tanks, anti-tank weapons. Much of his opinion can be relied on.

6. The fleet. Surface ships
1. Aristarkh Ludwigovich
2. News, Opinions, Analytics, Armaments
3. Well versed in the current state and the near future of the NK of the Russian fleet. Recently I became an author at VO, with which I congratulate him.

7. Fleet. Submarines.
1.rudolff
2. News, Opinions, Analytics, Armaments
3. The participant who is known to me who actually went to autonomous duty on combat duty in a nuclear submarine. I try to listen to his opinion.

1. I apologize both to the organizers of the survey (for changing the format) and to worthy participants, whose names I did not mention - although I could, I have a good memory.
2. Most of the people I mentioned are career officers and write only about what they know. I did not see them in discussions about domestic politics and the Russian economy, but I try not to participate in them myself.
3. Soon, apparently, generals of the army (and above) will appear on the site, "earning" hundreds of plus signs per day on politot, but have never had any relationship with the army and security services (maximum - conscription).

I think the most unpopular commentator of this year: Saboteur Holuay (formerly Theme of the MTR (Theme of the MTR), Samara_63 (Vasya)) - rating: -68893. https://topwar.ru/user/Diversant+Holuay/

[Ingvar 72]

There are two more specialists in the tanks - Alex TV and Kars. Both unfortunately have not been seen for a long time.
The story liked the comments by Wenda.
The fleet is the best Andrei from Chelyayuinsk.
I also like Dauria's comments.
There are many good and competent, but unfortunately there are more trolls who are at work.

[Ezekiel]

svp67 (Sergey) - absolutely incompetent in all matters except tanks. But for some reason he writes everywhere and leaves the impression of a very stupid person, which makes young people laugh and makes the old people angry ... He clearly deserves not encouragement, but condemnation for omnipresence!
I also propose to leave him the position of "moderator" only for the section tanks. And it is better not to let him loose there.

[Sergey Zavoloka]

I fully agree with you! The initiative is good!

[Qwertyarion]

I suggest "Andrey from Chelyabinsk" he had an interesting topic about the USSR, but it seems he was not allowed to develop it, which is a pity.

[depressant]

Dear VO site administration!
I will explain why people leave - experts in their field, professionals, among other things, and as a result of high education who own a literary style. That is, those who are interesting to read.
After all, why did they come to the site? Show how smart they are, knowing? Catch a fraction of the glory among people unfamiliar with them in reality and unfamiliar with each other?
Нет!
They came to the site and spent precious time of their lives on comments in order to change something in a positive way in our common. But, making sure that the authorities heard them, but did not listen, they left. And to be interesting and necessary is enough within the boundaries of direct contact with reality.
Putin clearly and clearly indicated that there would be no review of the results of privatization. Hence all our troubles and misfortunes. Therefore, no matter what we say here, in VO, everything is useless. And useful people will not be wasting their time. There is no feedback from the authorities and, it seems, will no longer be. So why strum?
Yes, and I would also like to add. Criticizing unjust power, patriotic people are forced to defend its actions in foreign policy. Cognitive dissonance arises. It’s hard to live in this state.

[Avior]

I have a counter offer
Publish a weekly, or at least monthly review of posts that have scored the maximum plus sign in ratings
There is a rating system, it is actively used, not to be lost in the results, why not show clearly which comments are most successful
In any case, this will be a clear illustration of the preferences and views existing among the participants in the system.
As an option, select separately the three most effective comments from different sections
This will be an open and clear analysis, otherwise why do we need a rating system if the best comment needs to be selected manually?

And specifically on the topic, I would call Undecim's Best Comments
Comments are always very informative, the style is correct, but not dry

[depressant]

Avior, support.
But who is Undecium? In my memory, a nick flashed only once. Please explain if this does not bother you. In the future I will pay attention to his comments. However, on topics of interest to me I read all the posts.
By the way. Once I read a forum under an old topic posted on VO, it seems, for 2012 - one of those that are offered in additions to the main one. There was a man there, the one who, it seems to me, now goes under the nickname "Tatar". So, the forum amazed me with a huge number of grammatical and syntax errors, the rudeness and offensiveness of the posts, the lack of at least some factual arguments. Because I do not understand the cry of some forum users about the past, "hot" times in VO, a kind of nostalgia. However, I have been at VO for only a year, perhaps I have missed a lot.

The above commentators are mostly practitioners, but I am very impressed by the articles and comments. Andrey from Chelyabinsk and erudition Undecim.
Unfortunately, many rarely now appear or have disappeared altogether, but I can’t help but recall Kars, Vadivak .
Interesting opinions and outlook of colleagues from other countries, such as, for example, Professors or voyaka uh.
Well Meehan, in his reincarnations, but he is in each of us , especially if you watch Channel 1 and the Star Channel for a long time

Good evening everyone!

My list. I want to note right away that the assigned numbering does not have a ranking goal, I just put down numbers for ease of perception and understanding when I should stop)))

1. Andrey from Chelyabinsk. Historical excursions and fleet. Clear and substantiated articles, attention to detail, reasonable arguments.
2. Bongo. Everything related to air defense. Knowledge of equipment and technology, a deep analysis of the topic. Completed loops.
3. NM52. Aviation. Understanding and rooting for aviation, as they say, there are no former pilots. Very competent comments and ratings.
4. Bober1982. Aviation.
5. Pete Mitchell. Aviation.
6. Donavia. Aviation.
7. Rudolff. Submarine fleet. He says essentially a submariner, his opinions are priceless.
8. Old 26. Strategic Rocket Forces. For me, his comments opened that side of the issue, which was not even thought of.
9. Shovels. Artillery. Professionals always stand out.
10. svp67. Armored vehicles.
11. Aristarkh Ludwigovich. Construction, shipyards. Very rare photos sometimes spread)))
12. voyaka uh. Interesting views on us from the “side” and at the same time remain within the bounds of decency. Disputes are pleasant with him, in which everyone remains within the bounds of decency.

You can still list a lot of people, but more, probably, is not required, and so violated the rules prescribed for the presentation of the best.)))
All good!
