Temporary ban placed.Reposting low quality pics reposted in Russian forums, often taken from here, bad scans, and links to Wikipedia, are not useful. Anyone wishing to know more about P.1103 should buy my book, Dan's book, and Tony Buttler's book. Not necessarily in that order.</blockquote>Whilst I understand your decision, and have gently called Blackkite out on his posting recently, I hope the ban will be short.I live in Japan like he does, and the general availability of the products in question is very poor. Whilst the books mentioned stick in my head, I am a native English-speaker, he is not.His actions are not egregious, when the sources are pointed out to him, he attributes (sadly, the Russian forums do not). He even bought one of Chris’ books when the source of his image was pointed out to him.Finally, it can be really hard to pick up English indirect communication if you’re not a native speaker - more so if you’re Japanese. Blackkite Was getting indirect messages about his postings, like “nice picture, where did it come from?”. That would be a yellow card to a native speaker - befuddling to many non-native speakers.</blockquote>
