Topic: The Chit-Chat Thread

Yeah I’m not receiving notifications either, probably also related to the server migration issues, let’s just give the site some time to recover.

@ThanosReXXX You're literate in Indonesian?!?

sigh I'll miss his pics of food the most...

Huh, weird that notifications are working for some and not others....that's even weirder then. Yeah I haven't received a single notification since morning yesterday. Not from the forums nor the articles, and I've been @'ed numerous times, including all your @'s, but haven't had any notifications about them. ($20 says in 48 hours I'll get like 100 notifications all at once.)

I wonder if the swear filter is sending mod notifications. We should "test" it in various articles and threads around the site.... @HobbitGamer I choose you!

....except you won't actually be notified you've been chosen....

... Let’s just set @NEStalgia to profanity quarantine mode for a while...

@NEStalgia I'm pretty sure that's Thai, not Indonesian.

@StableInvadeel Nuh uh, I nominated hobbit for it. Can't blame me!

@Octane Hey I just got the notification from that! It might be working again. Huh...so Thanos is literate in Thai? And why is he writing a message to Anti in Thai?

Lols, @NEStalgia .... My notifications also still seem to work, so it must have been a little glitch or something

@BruceCM I got your notification too, so it seems to be working again.

@NEStalgia Yeah, the notifications seem to work again!

And no, I think he's literate in Google Translate

@Octane Well, I never once noticed anything being amiss.

@NEStalgia No, I'm not, and as @Octane correctly noticed, it's actually Thai. I just used Google Translate.

Because of that, I now also completely understand his continuous misuse of the word "ever".

EDIT:
And it was simply a message with some kind words, and my view on the situation and his actions, in hopes of giving him some perspective, and seeing as he's not on site anymore, sending it through bimmy is the only way I could reach him. I can't stand leaving ends untied, so both for my own peace of mind, and to express myself to others, I needed to do this. Maybe it's an empath thing, or probably, I'm not sure, since I don't know how other people feel, so I can only speak for myself.

@ThanosReXXX Cheater. And here I thought you were a polyglot.

I agree with not leaving ends untied....bugs me as well. Though...why Thai?

@NEStalgia Because that is where Anti is from. It's my way of paying my final respects to a leaving member.
I'll do yours in train/hermit/Audrey hater speak whenever you decide to leave...

EDIT:
As for being a cheater: did you see how that looked with all those scribbles/hieroglyphs? It would probably take me an entire lifetime to actually learn that. It's even worse than Japanese or Chinese, which at least makes some sense. But besides that, I already speak 5 languages, which is probably at least two more than most people on here, so as such, I'm still a polyglot.

Anti-Matter's left, huh? I hardly know what's going on as I've mostly caught the odd, harmless post/comment of his (both as a lurker as well as after making an account) but I feel like something will be missing. I've never had anything to do with him personally but if any of you decides to contact him, could you please send him greetings and tell him I found his comments entertaining and wish him all the best, if it's no trouble? I'd really appreciate it.

While Google translate is pretty good, @ThanosReXXX .... It's not perfect! Hopefully, it's done a good enough job

Sucks that a regular is gone.
Back to my cave.

@ThanosReXXX - I sent him the letter. I’m just DMing with him on Instagram. I assume you were asking for his friend code so you two can play Sniper Elite III?

@NEStalgia - The food pics were great. You should see them on IG. If they’re homemade, he almost always captions them with, “Made it myself!” Haha. Classic. It’s worth a burner account just to check in with him once in a while. He’s unfettered there. Seems to have a nice group of friends and followers. He’s clearly king of DDR at the arcade in the Surabaya mall. I’m never disappointed when I scroll through his posts, though I haven’t been very active there in a while.

@BruceCM Well, only Anti-Matter will know, but I already mentioned that in the comment where I pasted this creaky translation, where I stated: "it's probably not 100% correct, but I'm hoping he gets the message".

As long as he gets the gist of it, then that's fine.

On a side note: there's several languages, mostly European and Latin-American ones, that Google Translate can actually transform into other languages quite correctly. It's mostly the more elaborate/complicated languages that get botched. Often due to grammar and/or multiple meanings for words, which might end up in out of context translations.

@bimmy-lee No, for online Mortal Kombat and Dead or Alive matches and that cute shooting and pants collecting game featuring booby anime girls...

Random throw-in, autumn weather's starting to hit. The summer heat's gone, temperatures have dropped, it's perpetually overcast, it's windy, and it's been raining for several days now.

I love this so much!

@ThanosReXXX Err, isn't Anti Indonesian, (with at least part Chinese ethnicity?) Either I missed discussion at one point that he's actually Thai living in Indonesia, or I still don't get why it's in Thai?

@bimmy-lee I've sworn off all the "Social" sites. IG, FB, MySpace, YourSpace, DeepSpace, darned kids mutters in corner

@ThanosReXXX Google claims that in the near future people won't need to learn languages anymore other than for entertainment, auto translation will be so perfect. Then i read something Google translates to/from Japanese and wonder why anyone listens to anything the creepy big brother company has to say.
