Second, No I thought the page would change to English because I've experienced this on a foreign language forum,
which actually did change the entire page.........Histwar Les Grognards game site AND it's forum does this.

And you think all blonde girls are stupid because you met one stupid blonde girl. That is called discrimination. More seriously:

• It is not because one site translates everything that every site should, otherwise, none would translate anything because there is one English website (Omnimaga) so every website would have to be in English.
• The content on the forums on Histwar Les Grognards are not translated, they are only available in English. Only the buttons and the sentences such as "Welcome, Guest. Please login or register." are available in different languages. On the contrary on TI Planet, the content (which is why you need most, because even Google translate is enough to understand the few words on a button and browse a website) is translated, for most interesting news and tutorials.
• TI Planet is not a website about a paid game. The people who made Histwar Les Grognards's website were paid to do it, so they did it, and they are going to earn even more money now that everyone can browse their website, while people who made TI Planet translated their content for free.

Look,

Your post sounds more like harassment & you've come across like a jerk.

Who asked for YOUR particular opinion?  Not me.

Thanks but I don't need your "insights"

This can't be harassment since I only posted once (before that post) about the translation topic, so go get a dictionnary (among other things) before posting about words (among other things) you don't know.

you've come across like a jerk.

I don't think I need to comment this...

Yeah, so no one would vote for the president because no one's opinion was particularly asked for. Once again you show some logic there.

Thanks but I don't need your "insights"

Indeed, you need more than this.

you have just crossed the line into harassment yourself, despite receiving multiple hints from other members that you should stop. enjoy your temporary ban and feel free to come back in a few days when you cool down a bit.

EDIT: also, at Levak and Hayleia, getting angry in response to someone only makes things worse.

May I also point out that this is the internet, and a forum. You don't have to ask specific people for their opinion to get it.

If you feel like any member is acting inappropriately towards you or any other member instead of lashing out at them on the forum, please press the report to moderator link on the right side of the post and let the admins who run this site (ie: me) deal with this.

Considering that most people (including many non-english-speaking people) prefer Omnimaga to other calc sites because they feel it's less hostile, and that they usually come back even after misunderstandings, I don't think that many people will agree with you here.

If you think Omnimaga members tries to throw people under the bus this much, imagine what it will be on calc forums where trolls are not banned.

Yeah someone called us a dictatorship a few times last month on IRC and in the past, some group from another calc IRC channel (that no longer exists as one) basically declared war against Omni for it >.<

As for the Worms thing, I think it was more because of how many time you said your stuff than the fact you said it, since we generally encourage people to work on original calc material and projects within their programming skills, while not insisting. But again this was almost during the nDoom policy days so I was more downvote (and tempban)-happy at that time.

Basically, the point is that if Omni tried to put people down like stefos tries to make it sound like, I don't think the people who prefer Omni for being friendlier would have stayed either. So in other words, it's not that bad, and incidents can happen everywhere (especially with that many members including ones who are used to their own site rules)


Maybe we should go back on the topic about how evil TI can be, though, with their anti-downgrades. (But again, there are like three or four downgrade help threads now)

Ok good to hear. Also if an user's behavior is deemed offensive, some admins might not deal with it publicly and will just try to reason the person via PM, so it's possible that you might not see if he was warned or not.

That said, it's a good thing that the new versions of SMF software (that Omni will eventually switch to) have an ignore feature that works on posts too. Currently, we can only ignore PMs (or disable our inbox) and their shoutbox messages, not forum posts. It can be handy if somebody has problems with an user, although if the admins/moderators are notified of issues, they can try to resolve it before ignoring is considered.
