Any comments, please.

Appears to be a German site, the feint style is not easy to read and on a quick skim not something I'd check again.

Hey, that's not fair. Always a positive comment first, then the complaints. Otherwise noone else will have a look...

One of my favorites is, "You sweat less than any fat girl I've danced with."

Oh my god. If I could only edit that post.
The smilie has 90% of the meaning of that reply, but noone seems to see it...

Stick to studying the use of hemp and other natural fibers.....

Yes, I can use the internet too.

Any comments, please.

Actually, I think our voyeurism is engaged just as well, if not better, on a flesh pile vs. a love fest.

And to practice what you just preached, thanks davidbfpo for providing your reasoned feedback to another member.



- I concur w/ difficulty reading through the styles and faint text.
- I am intrigued by concept of an English language blog on Germany. But from the perspective of (tell us who you are in the about page, make the link more prominent, put some more intel on your intent in there beyond the mission statement)?
- Given that linguistic reality of your battlespace, recommend that when you provide a German quote (e.g. the Constitution phrases), you always provide a literal translation as well as an interpretation. You did in an early entry but not a later one.

Good luck

What exactly is so difficult? Reading the letters (it's a default layout) or my english?

* Text font colour makes it hard to read.
* General colours of the whole site make it subdued.
* The mission statement under the title is too wordy.
* Nothing that makes it stand out from any other blog.

Your English is great.

Layout changed. I have only the choice among a couple of standard layouts with minor possibilites to edit. All else wouldn't be free.

The most challenging about this blog is to find competent contributors. I contacted some international friends, but the word "blog" alone suffices to let them think of a huge time effort.

There are enough blogs out there on equpment, but few on the greater matters, defense policy and defense of freedom/sovereignty in general.

I' aware that the content isn't for everyone. Some are simply not interested or part of such a different political direction that they wouldn't agree, ever. But I wanted to do something more complex and challenging than just equipment discussions - I've done enough about mere tools with my PDW homepage.
