Russian Spetsnaz coming back from a battle, Chechnya.

This is a random thing to request and I doubt anyone has really seen it, but I really want to find it and remember it being interesting.

It's basically either a video or article about a really old online game in which players would make their own environments and rooms, which was eventually abandoned until only a small group of dedicated players continued building in it. The video/whatever is about going back to the now comparitively dead game and exploring the creations of the old community which could sometimes be kinda macabre and weird, and as I recall the labarynth of rooms and user made areas was extremely big after the game had been around for so long.

That's all I really have to work on, I hope to find it. I was going to post it here but I couldn't find it to save myself.

That sounds similar to a game called Worlds Exploration.

Yeah, that's it. Thanks.

It wasn't the same video I was thinking of - I think - but it was just what I was wanting.

I haven't had a chance to take some pictures for a while because of winter and clouds and whatnot.
But I thought this one might be worth sharing from last night;

Man, I've never seen natural water so clean like this.
The 'seas' here look like fucking pools of mud, even when the water is just touching your ankles you can't see your toes anymore, let alone the bottom.

Florida Panhandle can become that clear, or close to it, because the continental shelf comes really close to shore. Reason it doesn't more often is because of the channels between the barrier islands and the bay/more westward waters around Louisiana and Texas which have those nasty rivers flowing right into the ocean, flowing east. During High Tide, the dirty nasty bay water is pushed back into the bays, bringing the clearer water from the ocean to shore, so generally the stronger the tide that day, the clearer the water will be (If nothing like a Storm or something has churned it all up). Once low tide begins, all that nasty brown shit water gets sucked back out and murks it all up. It will look black as shit sometimes. But thanks purely to the tide, it can look as follows, also:

I thought how clear sea water is had to do with plankton or something.

[TheTalon]

That might be the case, but the reason the water goes Murky as mud to as clear as the Bahamas on the Panhandle in mere hours is because of the openings to the bays and the tides that pull and push the water. If you want to go snorkeling, try to time your vacation so High Tide is around 10AM to Noon, so the water will start to get clear around 8 AM all the way to High Tide, then it'll start getting murky as the tide goes out. It's strong as shit, too, so you don't want to be out there too long and/or without fins once it starts going

High tide is also an hour later every day and then just sort of resets every month. There's also the factor of storms and june grass churning up the water, but you can't really plan for that

It's interesting you pointed out that was Russian Spetsnaz because before even reading that part I was thinking the guy on the far right looked oddly like Putin.

The Dolomites are amazing.

Been there 2 summers and it's just difficult to explain the beauty there.

Here's some of my pics of the place.
