Why is sinterklaas ruined for children if zwarte piet is a black person and not a white person?

Its because that is what my parents told me when I was 6, and it is what i will tell my children later. No buts, no facts checking, it is like that because that is what was told me. Its a tradition for gods sake, not some super serious event.
Well, I find such flagrant disregard for the truth to be offensive.

Logical consequence is that  his assistent would get black from all the stuff on the inside of the chimney while he is going down and up again.

He is not black, he is Spanish and he got dirty from climbing down the chimneys of the houses.

Black from the chimneys? But not his clothes? How did he get big red lips? And curly hair? Also from chimneys or do you have a separate historical revisionistic explanation for that?

Do everyone a favour and stop spreading this nonsense and do some research. Zwarte Piet is black cause he's a Moor, i.e. a person of African ancestry. A black person.

The Australian wildlife will kill anyone who is not prepared. This specimen is especially deadly. Their weapon of choice: Extreme cuteness.
Actually the platypus is one of the few venomous mammals. While not lethal to humans, their sting is excruciatingly painful.

I come to that conclusion that all of them I saw had poor clothing, still were carrying their bags and bundles, and were sitting in streets begging for money.

Not that I am an idiot.
So basically what you're saying is that if you were in such a position you would go around stealing, robbing and raping, so it's perfectly understandable that they would?

And in the obvious case that you say you won't, why would you assume they will? Would you not be bothered if you were a refugee and you were locked up in a camp?

You forgot to mention that the AVRE range is only like 140 metres.

It doesn't contain boys doing this stuff, so it's sexist... aaah, those feminists  ::)
The worst part is the text in the centre "To be as good as mommy, that's what you want!". Like mommy's greatest achievement is cleaning the fucking house.

Depends on whom you are addressing.
Do you use formal language when mailing your co workers?
No, but to a person whom I do not know I certainly would.

Am I the only person who uses formal language in e-mail?

Im just curious how many FH2 devs are working on traction wars?  Is that the next thing after this?  Will they move on to a new engine?
As far as I can tell from their staff page the only person who is a developer for both mods is Chad, but he does a lot of projects, including PR.

I don't know who started the rumour that traction wars has anything to do with Forgotten Hope. As far as I am concerned, the two mods have absolutely nothing to do with each other.

i have bf 2 with multiplayer but how do i know it is 1.5 or 1.41 version? any idea sorry for being dumb
You can check your registry. (Click start and in the field that says "search programs and files" type regedit. Now your BF2 version key should be under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Electronic Arts/EA Games/Battlefield 2 or HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Wow6432Node/Electronic Arts/EA Games/Battlefield 2.)

Don't edit anything in regedit if you don't know what you're doing or you'll screw things up.

...while sleeping, i had a dream that [...] Lightning called a "DEVS ONLY" meeting to address the many issues regarding "The Commander Position"
I've done that actually. Multiple times. I even looked up one of the threads (from August 2011).

The problem (back then) was that most of the developers would like to have some sort of commander, but no one has a good idea of what is possible or even what is wanted from the commander. A commander should be well integrated into the team, because right now he is more or less completely disconnected from it. Anyway, without any sort of direction for what is wanted or possible, no one spent any effort on it and I would be surprised if that would be any different today, with less than a third of the developers that were active back in those days.

As to removing it, that's a lot of work too.

Come on mate, you're ready to give up on life after your website gets blocked? Don't give up so easily. Find something else. Don't wait for it to happen - make it happen (but not a killing spree).

And please don't make more posts like this, it makes me really uncomfortable...
