German's much harder, because of differences in sentence structure, grammar, and spelling xd


But English is a Germanic language. It should be pretty close to English.


Actually, English is a hybrid between Romance and Germanic languages. Where you'd expect commonality, there's differences, and where you expect differences, there are commonalities. Often times, what's 1 word in english, is a sentence in German, or vice versa.

Yes, I knew that, but it's called a Germanic language cuz it's closer to German. Which is why English isn't included in the Romance languages. Old English sounds a lot like German. 3nodding

...Okay, let's stop now. sweatdrop

You know, Star Trek was done in English. I didn't know that. ^_^......and yes, I"m being sarcastic.

Is Lord Spyderguy a member? Because I don't see him in the guild members list.  
PostPosted: Fri Nov 19, 2004 5:41 am
I didn't invite him,
but I'm ok with the former "Data Lore" if he behaves.

Well, at 11:42am I accepted Lord Spyderguy.

Lindira: Can you ask all mods to document who they add, that way we know who's responsible if someone not so good joins?

It doesn't really matter who's responsible if someone not so good joins. Unless the mod knew that the person was bad and invited him/her anyway, which is very unlikely to happen. It's okay. You can't really tell a lot about a person from the requests. If there's trouble, give them a warning. If there's more trouble, give them another warning. If they still don't behave, we ban their a**.

Does everybody think that a 3-Strikes rule is fair?

Maybe we should make it private? I mean, what would be the point of them requesting to join if anyone can post?

Sure,
but I'd like to make it clear when someone is getting
First Strike,
Second Strike,
Third Strike.

I'd like to just warn people first, and let them know something should be
dropped immediately or risk penalty. (Then if they continue, they have
no excuse.) Obviously, that applies to REASONABLE issues, like the
disagreements over what is and isn't a trivia question.

If someone does something intentially offensive or egregious,
I can see issuing a First Strike immediately with a warning,
like, say, spamming all the threads at the same time or something.

I can also see extreme cases warranting an immediate ban.
That would be for things violating the Gaia Terms of Service,
or cyberstalking members, say, or posting irrelevant and blatantly
offensive topics or threads.

I think all of that goes without saying, but I feel it SHOULD be said
to avoid anyone feeling surprised later when an exception is made
for blatantly offensive behaviour.
"I thought you were just going to penalize me if I posted offensive
material to anger the guild!"

November 21st, 2004 @ 12:03pm Eastern - I accepted todpury into the guild. His request was rather long, and I got the impression that he really wanted to join the guild and enjoy discussing Star Trek at length.
