Originally posted by chancremechanicI don't doubt that 30% of German teenagers don't know about the holocaust. The thing is, you could do a survery on any NUMBER of things and discover that 30% of teenagers don't know about it. Teenagers are suprisingly good at not knowing about things.
Undeserved bashing of my country is not trivial, and it IS spitefulness and cowardice that makes the guilty strike out as you and yoir cohorts across the Atlantic do because they, and you, DO realize that I speak the truth about the degradation of Europe into an Islamic continent, and it pains them to realize that all Americans aren't stupid about Eu ...[text shortened]... l have to bow to Sharia law...democracy in Europe is dying a slow death...OZ could be next...
And I bet that 30% of teenagers in America don't know about some important things in your history - like Pearl Harbour, or the Gettysburg address, or...
Originally posted by telerionI'm trying to work out exactly how much of this is ironic, and consequently whether to rec you.
Holland is not a country? Oh and I suppose Transylvania's not either? So much has changed in that region since Yugoslavia split up.
See Chancre? I'm Red, White, and Blue through and through.

I got banned for a couple of days also for profanity but the other person who was also using profanity didn't get banned. That's why I will allow my subscription to expire and play my 6 games for free and keep my money in my pocket. Can't ban one without banning the other when both parties are using profanity. Yes there is a bias when banning posters is concerned.
Originally posted by orfeoWhy not? At least when I get banned there's no monetary loss. I guess in your mind its alright when someone from the US gets banned and the other poster (who by the way) used worse language than I did gets a free pass. If I'm to banned for using profanity then so be it. I'll do my pennance no problem. It's when the other person who used profanity gets a free pass that ticks me off. It's usually someone who isn't from the US that gets a free ride.
And keep posting in the forums, no doubt.

(especially if the labor is answering an opinion poll.)

I once got a ban just for quoting a link containing profanity. I think the moderators are anti-German.
Originally posted by NordlysIn all seriousness I am always a little surprised that this site allows links to other sites to be posted, especially when those links are the entire content of the post. Just seems awfully liberal to allow the posting of links that may divert the attention of users away from the site. Like a store owner posting an ad for a rival in his window.

Originally posted by Sambo69I understand that, but if I was running an internet site that depended upon subscriptions and advertising for revenue I wouldn't like anyone posting any links that possibly sent those on my site flitting off to another site. I assume every for-profit site wants as many people actively using that site for as long as possible. That certainly must be what the advertisers want, and must have something to do with the advertising rates that can be charged.
