Anjin arrives at Point Nemo after a grueling journey to Earth.There was an incident .8 light years from Earth involving a comet.One-hundred and twenty-four of Anjins elite Baboon Dragoon Guards were lost as well as most of the ships rations.The crew resorted to cannibalism.All accept Anjin,for he dined on baboon.

As Anjin readies his invasion forces he hears a faint transmission on his Interstellar radio.He instantly realizes that this not an Earth frequency.A chill goes up his mighty spine as he begins to form the notion as to who it might be.He blinks his eyes at the retinal scanner and says "Playback".He listens intently as the message is repeated.He grimaces for he knows now that others have beaten him to Earth.These ailens, the Seafordians, are the Overlords of the core systems,and there war cry is .............."calling all aliens!!!!"

You have NoScript installed, and it thinks that wikimapia.org and www.wikimapia.org are two different places. Because of that, NoScript treats it as a potential cross site script attack, and blocks the page load. The easiest solution for you is to use www.wikimapia.org for reading the forum (with the www).
