Title: Apology and kudos
Post by: Gaare on December 22, 2014, 12:52:39 PM
Hey,

It has been more then five or six years, since I play Armageddon and here I am again. Actually, I am around for some weeks now..

First apologies;

As a non-native speaker, I always felt bad for you people. Whatever I do, my wording probably sounds like a 11 years old kid to you. Even worse, unlike other guys from my Arm university crew (like Ghost, Koala) I never left the country and did not live in an English speaking country. So.. my English is probably worse. I read a lot, watched a lot in English but in any case I totally lost ability of writing what I can call Arm-English. So big big apologies, and sorry for inconvience. I try hard and will probably get a bit better in no time.

Kudos;

I can't believe how you (staff and players alike) manage to improve almost perfect game. It was awesome a few years ago, It's amazing right now. Codewise, storywise.. I can't really find words to decribe how I feel. Everything seems improved. Everywhere I see new items, new system additions, beatifully changed stories and background. Also, playerbase is even larger and you really rock hard.

So see you on some sand dune, or at the other side a blade.

-Ruhi

Welcome back!

I remember playing with you several years ago, and while I understood then that you were ESL, it didn't bother me one bit and I think you are an excellent RPer. Keep on stabbing! (That bone blade).

Just play a dwarf, you'll fit right in! 'Hello yes sorry, in my alley mirrukim we speak most of all.'

Play a tribal dwarf. People will think you are just "playing the role well". I'm not even joking.

I am born and raised in the United States. I wanted to let you know that your English is pretty good. I have seen a lot worse on the GDB and IG. Arm will probably help to improve your English. Welcome back and just have fun.

Another name I recognize.   Welcome back to the enveloping fold of Tek's shadow and Muk's light.

And your english is better than 99% of americans, I'm pretty sure, so don't even worry about it.

Gaare! I think I'm right in assigning a red-eyed Jihean to you? If so, you were my first encounter apart from a few snide remarks at the bar about 'breeds. I still smile and glow inside at the memory of those first days.

Anyway, whether you were or not. Welcome back!

Play tribal anything and you're good in terms of english. I also think the game has been fleshed out very well since when I first started. It'll only keep growing. Bring in all your nerdy friends to play with you in your timezone!

I'm in the same boat as you are. I began learning my english on internet roleplaying games and only a few years in, I 'eventually' immigrated to an english speaking country.

Welcome back!
