Stop expecting shit...if u want it to be in there just do it urself and ask for it to be added. It's not that hard.

Kind of hard considering the only thing I know how to write is requiem and patriotic poetry, and my sense of humor is shit.

I just skipped through it, so here are my rough thoughts:
- content-wise it's a big improvement and it seems like I'm gonna actually read it (tomorrow)
- the new design also is a huge step but still: get yourself some guy/gurl who knows how to handle indesign/scribus. it makes no sense to release a pdf where all the texts are images actually. it's a pain-in-the-ass to read long text passages with that pixelated font at 100%. and pls use columns. page 3 looks the best btw (maybe a bit less text shadowing).
No difference between man and mouse - both end up in pussy.

the bonus issue is now out. we rushed this one so its only an image for now, sorry about that, but we're working with new graphics guys and will hopefully have an improved look/usability very soon.

yeah that will be coming up next issue! this is our sort of half weekly non-serious edition, just a page or two with funny quotes or whatever. only this time it seems to have me in a dress.

Well, either make them (In general) work on Mozilla (The issue before the bonus didn't work) or make the file size smaller somehow, I'd love to see it.

Couldn't it have stuff about the non-sctfl/clan minority of the soldat community?

And wtf @ that red meat comic. Seriously, the fuck is that shit?

Very nice, very nice indeed....
It was something that the community was missing...

Is there any way to help you? like gathering information or something like that...

It's getting cooler and cooler. I see that some effort has actually been put there.

Keep it up, was a nice 10-min.
