All Activity

Yep not fun and definitely the part where the natives know you aren't native. Although from the languages I know, English is the only one that doesn't have the gendered nouns. And then you try Latin, and then every word has a gender and the gendered words also have about 6 different endings based on their position in the sentence if I remember correctly, and maybe even 12 if you also count the plural versions? I could not be bothered with it and dropped it as soon as I could. Regarding your second paragraph, I think every language has that? All in all, for most language learning it's better to just learn it in practice. Read and hear the language so much that one thing just feels more natural than the other instead of relying on grammar rules. Won't work in all cases, but at least it will make the learning fun

@Sitting-Duc is looking into it. I also know that cloudfare can slow down initial connection to the website when its trying to verify if activity is human or potentially bot controlled. Ie if you post in many places online then cloudfare needs to make sure you're not a spam bot. I dont know if that is significant in your case, but it for example slowed down @iboomboom a few weeks ago when he was posting frequenly about the Cod4x server genuinely. But the algorithms flagged him as a potential spammer and slowed him down

Then it would be slow all the time, or most of the time I think, it's only that first page load, subsequent clicks are quick.

Have a GREAT birthday!!!

Taking 4 years of German in high school, I found it annoying & seemingly unnecessary that every noun you learned had a gender you had to memorize. Then the whole declension. Der die das die...den die das die, dem der dem den, des der des der. Ich du er sie es wir ihr sie Sie, mich dich ihn sie es uns euch sie Sie, mir dir ihm ihr ihm uns euch ihnen Ihnen, meiner deiner seiner ihrer seiner unser euer ihrer Ihrer About as much fun as memorizing the chemical process of Adenosine Triphosphate in the Krebs/Citric Acid Cycle in nursing school back in the day. A knife being neutral, a spoon masculine & a fork feminine, for example...

Wish I was, I'd love to

Godverdomme, the boy speaks it better than @BUDMAN, but of course he'll be sober unlike Budman, so he has an excuse

Honestly, the most useful part of my high school English lessons was how we had to memorize a whole list of English irregular verbs and how they had to be conjugated. Not to say I never do them wrong now. But I do still at times think of the lines like, to catch, caught, caught. To read red red. To ride, rode, ridden. And now I'm just hoping I'm remembering them right

Tried it last night and got a timeout. But now I tried to connect to the server again and it worked. I dont know what caused the problem yesterday but as of now I can play.
