Also, fulI of mystery. I watched And Now For something Completely Different in an Athenian theater, and the word "twit" was subtitled as "zbik", a word I haven't been able to find anyplace else. Maybe it's so rude that the Greeks won't admit to having a word like that.
I quit playing, but I've got this fleet carrier eating away at my wealth, so I'm going to have to log back in eventually, like it or not, just to earn some coin to pay for the thing.
Just quoting this on the off chance we need to revisit it on Thursday.
Frontier have said Galnet "is not on the roadmap" (or words to that effect).
So, if Galnet does come back - does that also mean that anything else Frontier have said is "not on the roadmap" may also make an appearance one day? (Example: Base Building)...
Seriously though, like you - I will also be checking this thread on the off chance we need to revisit it on Thursday.
That's so not the Bazmeson way!
Maybe I am Bazmeson and I just created a new account.
Did you talk to your friend about this then?
Does he also own a Fleet Carrier?
So you'll sell your FC by June if Galnet isn't back by then?

That is precisely one of the interesting points, isn't it
I would not go as far as to say that it would be applicable to "anything else" but at least it would show that those kind of statements are not necessarily the outright cancellation some may fear. It would also show once more how FDEV are quite disciplined and tight in terms of comms even when they are working on something unannounced.

That's what I thought. The other way around must be even trickier (understanding certain heavily local coloured German jokes) and might be the main reason for why many native English speakers tend to believe Germans don't have any humour at all.
Very kind of you, but this is mainly the result of patience and a few little helpers. Most of my posts are quite laborious, feels like carving in stone, and take up an incredible amount of time. In free speech with my son (who meanwhile speaks better English than German) I always reach my limits very quickly.
I expect you're right that it goes both ways with languages and dubbing - I did german at school but can't understand much of what my German speaking friends are talking about when on teamspeak - although when they discuss the game, it's easier as the english terms are used. So I admire others a lot who speak non-native languages - especially when they are like yourself speaking here on a foreign forum!
But I meant it seriously when I said you speak great english, it's very impressive. I never thought you were a non native speaker! As for german speaking people not being funny - that's just a myth in my experience and opinion. Like others have said, colloquialisms are hard to get across in languages, but again some of the funniest people I know in game are german or german speaking, so I think it's just an old idiom that doesn't stand up to practice if you know what I mean
Oh my.... now that is enlightening lol! I have to admit that I don't know if it was autocorrect on my phone, or just me typing too fast - equally possible - but now I know that the alternative spelling has a very different meaning (lol) I will have to be more careful!
But, with the way you phrased your last paragraph, I have to agree! Having drawers down there could make movement difficult and uncomfortable at the very least, even taking the storage space into account as you say
Nonetheless, your assertion is correct, that I meant cojones as opposed to cajones - thank you for pointing it out to me mate lol Oh wow - I'd love to know if the greek word for twit is really rude now...?! I guess it's only one letter away from super-rude in english lol!

If things were to change, it would also show that positively criticising, nagging and all that stuff, does indeed get attention and more to the point, action. So basically if that's the case - everyone keep doing what you are doing...
Sounds about right!

Best tune in on thurs then and you can have the date confirmed.

I think it depends on what kind of Galnet can be returning. If it's the same as before, it'd needs (almost) zero effort, so been in a Roadmap is not relevant / is not needed / has no meaning. That can be decided is an small amount of time and done. But if they are bringing back a completely new Galnet, fixed and really improved, what needed truly work, then the possibles consequences of your though, would be more interesting.
I prefer to wait until Thursday.

Engage pokerface > pokerface engaged.

No twit is up there with things such as wally and plonker in English language.
There was even a Roald Dahl book called the Twits.

Constructive criticism is always great. Unlike, say, demands including threats innuendoIf things were to change, it would also show that positively criticising, nagging and all that stuff, does indeed get attention and more to the point, action.

.Either way in this case, and if Galnet was actually to return, I suspect it could have very well been a case of FDEV's plan all along and mostly keeping on course. Which is not necessarily incompatible with taking that constructive criticism on board.
