Men celebrate the end of prohibition, December 5, 1933. Funny how some things don't change over time. This is what my neighborhood bar looks like every Friday night. :D

Here's the video to it. From MEGA TV Yes, only in Greece!!!

There's a new sheriff in town!!!! :cw: Red Sheriff has joined the Phantis moderating team. He was asked and has offered to help moderate the Olympiacos forums (soccer and basketball). Give him some love guys! Thanks for the spirit and help Red Sheriff.

Happy New Year to all. :1eye:

Reaper is the moderator of the Olympiacos forums. As such he has the authority to moderate content any which way he sees fit with the goal of augmenting the quality of posts in these forums and to make sure that expression of opinion is not suppressed . It is entirely up to his judgement to keep content (posts), edit where appropriate or delete. That is the role of the moderator. That is what he is asked to do. That being said, the performance of a moderator is evaluated on a constant basis by his peers (the Moderators), the Supermods and the Admins. These are the general principles by which these forums operate. In the moderating team, we don't think of moderators as team supporters. Rather, we treat them as individuals that have reached a maturity level that allows them to work with other team members in an effort to maintain a friendly and welcoming forum. We hope you enjoy these forums and continue to participate in a way that elevates general awareness and provides food for thought in all threads and conversations.

I believe this is what you are looking for

Greek medics: Worst medics ever? Injured footballer dropped several times Greek medics dropped player Leonardo Koutris several times on their way off the pitch after he was injured during a match between AEL Larissa and Ergotelis.

So, here we have it. The Olympiakos forum has a brand new moderator. Reaper joins the moderator team, and I sure am happy to see him willing to help. Thank you in advance Reaper and good luck with the task at hand.

Got an article from Themistocles Cala on the main site of Phantis: Igor Tudor learns the PAOK footballing reality the hard way "There are many pieces of advice one could give to someone considering becoming the new manager of PAOK. Perhaps the most obvious advice would be ? don't do it. " Show him some love...

:band: (drumroll please) We have two new brave souls willing to act as the PAOK forum moderators: Blackhawk and Pash Thank you guys and good luck.

This is the ballot.... For those that don't read Greek, it reads: "Should the proposed agreement be accepted, which was submitted by the European Commission, the European Central Bank, and the International Monetary Fund in the Eurogroup of 25.06.2015 and consists of two parts, which constitute their unified proposal?" "The first document is entitled 'Reforms for the Completion of the Current Program and Beyond' and the second 'Preliminary Debt Sustainability Analysis'." Beside the question are two boxes: "Not approved/No; Approved/Yes". How many Greeks do you think have read the plans for 'Reforms for the Completion of the Current Program and Beyond' and 'Preliminary debt sustainability Analysis' ?

Kathimerini has obtained the full proposal submitted by the Greek government to the EU. All 11 pages can be seen here. http://s.kathimerini.gr/resources/article-files/protasi--2.pdf

A piece by Themistocles Cala titled Bittersweet 42nd Championship for Olympiacos on the main section of Phantis. Read Story Themistocles Cala just started writing for Phantis, so show him some love :D

What's your definition of 'historically'? The fact that it was under Russian control from 1783 - 1954 ? The Dodecanese were part of the Ottoman Empire from 1522-1912. Do you think that the Dodecanese belong 'historically' to the Turks? Do you think the Turks will deservedly annex them? The fact is that Crimea was a part of Ukraine after 1954. Epirus incorporated into Greece after the First Balkan War of 1912?1913. Do you think Albanians can justifiably lay claim on Epirus? Sure, anybody can say anything. I don't recall Angela Merkel or Francois Hollande giving an official interview on the subject matter though. Media sensationalism should not create political opinions, but unfortunately is does. Yes, it's a war of words, and public opinion is key. However I don't see us helping ourselves with electing a leader like Tsipras heading a party like SYRIZA. They are in shambles and don't even have a unified political position. Let's not blame others for our inability to function as a nation. Let's not blame others for the fact the we do not have political leaders capable of carrying Greece out of this hole that was dug by our own corrupt politicians. We (the Greeks) have to find the will to get through and decide what it is that we want as a people. (Then we can start blaming the ...Germans :box: )

Some members are asking whether they can edit their own posts or not. All members have a 60 minute window of opportunity to edit a post. No posts are editable after 60 minutes.

You mean just like Ukraine did with the Russians by offering Crimea as a base before in was annexed? :la: Which island would you like the Russians to annex? :box: I suggest you reconsider this idea. :huh: I think mingling with Putin's Russia is bad news. But I do not have any high expectation from Tsipras and his government - it's more like let's all hope some miracle happens. I don't see him retaining his "Prime Minister" hat for very long.
