[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is a fortified tent?

Does it have gun emplacements? A keep? Moat? Is it defended by Knights? Surrounded by a stockade?

Curious as to what constitutes a “fortification” to a heap of fabric and aluminum poles.  [/quote]

I guess if you want everyone to know you don’t know that term, this is one way to do it.[/quote]

Yeah, Einstein- that’s what I was implying.  :roll:

I don’t know WTH a “fortified” tent IS. I goggled it. Google doesn’t know either.

Congrats. You’re smarter than me AND Google.

That Ivy degree was worth it all along I guess. [/quote]

Maybe spend a weekend off the computer. A 10 year old Boy Scout knows what that means. [/quote]

There's no such thing as a "fortified tent".

OP made up the term in an attempt to explain/describe what they are seeing/saw.

So, only they know what it is exactly or what the definition is since it's something they completely made up.

I can make assumptions and guesses as to what they may mean and if I had seen it, I would have some additional information to go on but I haven't so here we are - only OP knows exactly what a "fortified tent" is.  You think you know, but you'd only be guessing.

OP could post a picture but to be honest, I'm OK if they are the only one who knows what a "fortified tent" is.

DP. You must have a really hard time in the real world communicating with people.

When we use language there are words and descriptors. When we don’t know the precise word that something is called, we try to use descriptors based on words that most people commonly understand so that they can create their own mental image.

In linguistics, this can be sometimes called the sign and signifier. [/quote]

Still no picture or better definition - I can only conclude you don't know and would be guessing too -- moat and a taunting frenchman?  Got it!
