any flat earthers arround here

Wait till you see his creative editing of what people he may not like post.  Because of that I fled years ago.  That's scary.

I am not familiar with this too much, but is this a case of a forum owner editing a person's posts to change their meaning? Or is it just misrepresenting a person is his own posts?

Flat eartherism has to be trolling.

If you study the program, the internal figures for chances of success were 5%.

If chances of making to the moon are 5%, then probability of completing 6 of such missions (and reportedly USA landed on moon 6 times in short period of time) is like 1:65 million. What is you source?

NASA's Understanding of Risk in Apollo and Shuttle:

However, this appreciation of the risk was not considered appropriate for the public. During Apollo, NASA conducted a full Probabilistic Risk Assessment (PRA) to assess the likelihood of success in ?landing a man on the Moon and returning him safely to Earth.? The PRA indicated the chance of success was ?less than 5 percent.? The NASA Administrator felt that if the results were made public, ?the numbers could do irreparable harm.? The PRA effort was cancelled and NASA stayed away from numerical risk assessment as a result.

Why would they want 'tension' when they could completely humiliate the USA by showing it had perpetrated a huge fraud on the world and its own citizens?

[...]

They would have exploited fake Moon landings.  They did not because the Moon landings were real.

I do not have an ultimate proof that Moon missions is a hoax, but I think there is a serious doubt. There might be yet another variable in the "history" equation we are not aware of, which would explain why Russians stayed mum about this. Perhaps it was convenient for them too.

It is not like every tidbit in the history books are given is 100% honest and accurate, is not it?

Here you go. Even if chances of making there are %50%, then completing 6 missions with one  almost tragedy (Apollo 13) is like 1:32.

Every mission was close to disaster. The first landing was almost the first crashing.

Apollo 13 is noted for its failure to land on the moon, but they all could have ended with complete losses of crew. That is one of the benefits of having skilled and motivated pilots on board who know their craft. They could adjust and adapt to the circumstances to prevent that.

I was so close to win $100k in my last trip to LV. So close.

Both. But, this is not to say that I never made an ass of myself all by myself.

This is why I think forum members should have full control over their posts. Forum posts that are not fit for a forum by judgement of the owner should just be removed or hidden.

They are mini-publications.

Or some sort of social engineering study?

There are people who have sworn and cited "experts" who claim that cutting hair makes it longer.

Want long hair? Cut it regularly, they say.

(Cutting hair makes it shorter, but more even and less tapered, which can improve certain style appearances, but cutting something makes it shorter, and cutting the ends of hair has no bearing on how hair grows...hair has a preset length based on time, and it will go through its life cycle regardless of how long it is.)

I am not sure how to get point across. A close call is not the same as the crash. Now you are comparing apples to oranges. What matters is a final outcome.

Flat eartherism was invented by Victorian or Enlightenment era historians to make the medievals seem hopelessly beknighted. Anyone believing it has let themselves be pranked by the long dead.
