@divegeester saidFMF made a big thing of telling Red, "The "Indonesian alphabet" is exactly the same 26-letter Roman alphabet as English uses. "Indonesian writing" appears exactly the same as English writing.
Gosh, is it really. So what.
This is not the case in Javanese script.

@divegeester saidYou think we are currently discussing this thread in the Chamber?
I didn’t mention the piper, I was referring to the rats.
And you call others paranoid.
@ghost-of-a-duke saidIndonesian writing is completely different from Javanese writing. Relentless Red wants to gaslight me "to teach me a lesson", as he has admitted, and you are playing along.

@fmf saidWhat you mean is, the official language of Indonesia is different from Javanese. This doesn't negate Javanese from being an Indonesian language or make the following statement from you correct:

@fmf saidJava is in Indonesia, it may surprise you to know.

If you wanted to claim that Bahasa Indonesia is currently usually written using the Latin alphabet, you'd have been right, but you didn't write that. There is still a lot of writing done in Indonesia which is not Bahasa Indonesia. Also, the language which became Bahasa Indonesia - Riau Malay - was usually written in an Arabic-derived script called Jawi, which is in fact still in use in some areas to write... Bahasa Indonesia!

@ghost-of-a-duke saidThe two languages are completely different. Javanese is not Indonesian. And Indonesian is not Javanese. I do not speak or read Javanese. Not a single word of it.

There's no more likely to be "evidence" on my computer that I have browsed web pages that use Javanese script than I have done so with Sundanese web pages or Balinese web pages, two more completely different languages with different scripts, neither of which I can speak or read.
Do you honestly believe that Relentless Red is presenting evidence that I have committed cyber crimes or evidence that support your claims that I am malicious are true?
You are both just gaslighting.
@shallow-blue said"Bahasa" is not an English word. That's why I don't use it when I use the English word "Indonesian" when referring to the language in English

@relentless-red saidSo you do think it was FMF wot done you in.
Well, if it wasn't you the timing and content was pretty remarkable. The reader can make their own mind up.
@shallow-blue saidGreat post.

@the-gravedigger saidWell, your guess is as good as mine. I've listed all the strange happenings and I've been cross examined by his barrister Dive (very cross).
So you do think it was FMF wot done you in.
If FMF did do it, I would just laugh about it and move on, but I would encourage him to do the same about the speck of dirt he believes is in Ghost's eye.

@relentless-red saidI wish everybody would stop putting dirt in my eyes. I'm trying to play Scrabble here.
