Well, enough's enough. I suggest that if anybody wants the flaming war that Toby's obviously trolling for, take it off board. I for one am not interested. No further comment from me.

Motion carried. Shame Voyagers and Wedge seem to have vanished from the board. I think Johnny should put a big fat Padlock on this gaggle of threads.

I've emailed voyager as we are currently playing a PBeM match and asked him to close down the whole series.

What does Freak mean in your Language ?

Serious Question. I said Freak. NOT *Idiot* or something RUDE.

In german common speak, freak is a positive word. It says that you are spending your time with something verry unusual, or that you are absolutely keen on something.

Motorcycle-Freak. Sports-Freak.
Computer-Freak is almost showing respect that someone is verry good with computers and Technology.


I feel really offended when you try to lay wordy in my mouth that I DID NOT SAY. I never intended to start a Flame War, Mr. Deathwing.

nuff said.

I try to bury gems like that when I'm typing at light speed just to see if everyone is paying attention, DW.

And I meant it ... my idea of graphics for Blood Bowl has got to be a table top match in the TBBF or the Woodell League with fully painted teams.... you guys are d*mn impressive. No computer can ever match the beauty of a good fig .... that is truly my own opinion ... the masses are not required to agree with that statement.

(from Longman Concise English Dictionary)
Freak n. A living creature of unnatural form, a person with strange habits, ideas or appearance.

admittedly, that probably covers most of us, but the way I read the post it came accross as an insult.

If there was a language problem...ah stuff it.

Lets agree to disagree and let the whole thing drop before we embark on a another circuit...

So now that you guys have created the Euro, Thradin ... when are you all going to agree to make English the common language and end all this translation issue .... :lol: ... oh and if Sweden isn't using the Euro ... sorry for the error.

Sorry ... I pretty sure Europe have a common language AND currency would be one of the signs of the Apocolypse coming.

Hi Galak,
reminds me of a real issue.

It was suggested that at official EU arrangements, you'd only speak english or french.
However - noone was allowed to speak his native language.
Naturally, the clever suggestion got canned ;)

Sweden and Britain are Euro free - thank God. we still have our Kronor!
(and don't forget that I'm a Brit abroad...)
(and that pretty much everyone here can speak fluent English)
