Re: Cornomerus, if you're going to criticize what I've written - and you have a couple good points - I would appreciate more than that

Well, I guess the plonkorama at Yahoo works, cos I didn't get the following.

Earn yer respect, then, laddie. Learn when it's safe to spout a load of political garbage before doing so. It's a lesson I had to teach myself the hard way, and am constantly having to learn it.

Find a newsreader and look for a politics group!

Yes, there are plenty of smart people here. They aint here to talk politics, and I doubt they're here to listen to your abuse. You wanna rant? Go to Yahoo and sign up for some free webspace.

Course not. The first few lines were quite offputting, thank you so very much.

It ain't my aim to help thee. It's my aim to let you know that political rants aren't welcome here. About the only thing worse is an orcslang rant.

Did I blame thee for that one?

HERE, they dón't matter. HERE we are conlangers. HERE we are interested in how we construct languages and their cultures. Believe you me, there are enough French and Germans and miscelaneous others here for any politically active Merkins to go all postal on. We could turn this place into a political flamefest royale, if we wanted to. No thank you, we don't want any.

You got that right, pal!

Nice?

It weren't my point to offer thee my opinion.

I read the first few lines. That was enough. Padraic. ===== la cieurgeourea provoer mal trasfu ast meiyoer ke 'l andrext ben trasfu. -- Ill Bethisad -- <http://www.geocities.com/elemtilas/ill_bethisad> Come visit The World! -- <http://www.geocities.com/hawessos/> .
