Respect !


(nUllSkillZ) #1

Hi,

I’m active here in the forums for some time now.
But in the last time I see some dis-respect (not sure if this is the correct word) here in the forums.

Certain countries are “attacked” because of their language.
Certain people of the community that have done a lot for the community are “attacked”.

Hey, what’s wrong with you guys?
We are here because we love this game.
And to share thought’s, ideas and information.
And to respect each other’s.

CU

amen

Unfortunately there will always be small minded individuals who feel they can make idiotic generalisations.
Best to just ignore them (or flame them if you are in a bad mood :stuck_out_tongue: )

I think this thread might actually be entirely redundant, if the two examples are the same ones I’m thinking of. The ‘french suxx’ guy was immediately chastised, and ChumChum was being sarcastic when he “attacked” Ifurita, by the sounds of things.


(Ifurita) #6

Heh. I got attacked \o/.

Chum was being very sarcastic, we’ve known each other forever.

I guess, i am the french suxx boy… It’s just that I don’t like the french and i got my reassons for it. But I never ment to have no respect at all, it was just one of my opinions which i am probably free to say.

By this I am sorry for the people that didn’t like my statement…

Ok to tell my opinion, as i am going much to france (every year on vacation), I see the country. Then it irritates me when no one can speak any english at all… While I need to learn 5! Languages at school. Then I think by myselfs that it is so hard to learn only some english for them while 70% of the words are copied from teh french language… So now you know why, hope I fixed the problem by this. And to the topic starter, you have learned english, and used it very well, i only can respect that.

EDIT: Oh well, forgot my name is paranoid :slight_smile:

You didn’t really fix the problem by explaining why you hate the french - the problem is that you shouldn’t be replying to positive threads with negative replies like ‘french suxx’, not that we don’t understand why you hate it.

OFF TOPIC
Technically: you go to their country and walk on their land, so why not speak french then? :smiley:
They aren’t forced to speak English.
And if you learn 5 languages, that’s handy if you are in another country.

Just my opinion. It’s worse in Belgium: official languages are dutch and french. But some refuse to speak dutch. :wink:

BACK ON TOPIC

Anyway, much respect to the guys on this forum who manage to make this site such a great resource. (My sig says all)

While I need to learn 5! Languages at school.

Vacation in your own country, support it’s economy


(ParanoiD) #12

There are many other points to mention as well about france. Then I had to learn 5 languages, it was not my choise, but my governments choise.


(IneQuation) #13

OMG, you can’t just let it go? :nag:


(ParanoiD) #14

I can let it go now, if you don’t remind me on it…


(Salteh) #15

I’m still curious though… what languages?
Dutch, German, English, French and a random other language?
Technically you are only forced to take 4 languages, but can do more if you choose to.

I had to do french and german until my 4th year iirc, and quit Latin / Greek the year before :]


(ParanoiD) #16

(Salteh) #17

I feel the English are being picked on for being superiour than Americans :suspicious: :rolleyes:


(Nail) #20

I feel Canadians are being picked on because we know it’s superior to rather than “superiour than”
