Congrats Furburt.

Now reveal the secrets of making great Avatars!
Well....

Sorry I am bound by an oath of secrecy I took while drunk in 1963....

The Avatar store is full of secrets I do not know and therefore can't reveal

You are certainly a beneficial part of this community, and a good person for other posters to look to for proper forum behaviour. I congratulate you on your spotlight, you certainly earned it.

Ji Ha, Ji Nahi!
It's redundant and makes no contextual sense to say 'Ji Ha', 'Ji Nahi'.

Yeah, I know Hindi. '-_-
I know, I was just listing things I knew. That's LITERALLY all I know

If you know some, I'd really appreciate any help!

Alright, enough Spanish now!

Anyway, that is cool!

I have a friend, Manchan, who's fluent in 7 other languages!

The man's a maniac. He can speak Mandarin, Irish, Spanish, French, German, Hindi and Arabic!

This essentially means that he can talk to like 80% of the people in the world.

Also, woo! I'm derailing a thread about me!
I think you're allowed to do that. It's like royalty wandering around Buckingham.

Thanks for the awesome conversation, mate. I'd love to learn Arabic as well.

I take it Manchán is Irish? I initially assumed he was Mandarin (curse my latent racism)

Yup! The cheap keyboard I have doesn't really let me do fada's.

I had to get all the accents for the Spanish from Spanish articles. Copying and pasting them.

I didn't bother with the Irish one though.

Also, I just realised, if he spoke Hebrew, he could mediate pretty much every conflict in the world.
Ah, Hebrew, another language I'd love to understand...

or is it Yiddish?

Bah, who cares. [mock racism]bunch of christ-killers guttering in tounges...[/mock racism]

Well, Caliostro got it, and his post count is lower than yours.
*Gasp* Then there is hope!
Oh, my comical constant seeking of recognition. How very rude of me though.
Fabian my man, I haven't congratulated you yet.

Daaaaww...

Well, thanks a bunch!

And you never know, you might get it one day. I mean, there's no time limit on this feature.

Here's hoping!
Anytime man, brothers in Escapist arms after all.
But, now I feel silly for my desperation...oh dear x)

Are there cooperative efforts in this Llama-smuggling business? I can totally help, I've got a client over here, calls himself "Santo", says he can distribute if I can hook him up. I'll only ask for...5%? Maybe 7?
Por favor, mi amigo, no hablar de ello aqui.

Nos vemos en la encrucijada.

Traiga Carlos, 2 subfusiles, y una caja llena de tilos.

Buena suerte!
Ay mi, por supuesto, por supuesto. Yo debería haber sabido. Si no puedo encontrar suficientes limones, ¿aceptaría usted mangos?

Mangos quieres ser perfecto, camarada.

Sólo asegúrese de que vienen bien armados.

Nunca se sabe lo que esos perros sucios del gobierno está planeando.
Luego nos reuniremos con usted, mangos en la mano, en la encrucijada. Usted me conoce cuando se ve un hombre que viajaba en un sombrero.

Goddamn zombies, pretending they're fictional to fool me ...
Hey, some of us are proud to openly admit to being zombies!

I'm really glad[footnote]I'm using the word 'glad' way too much nowadays. I really need to pick up a thesaurus at some point and find a new word to say. Possibly one beginning with a 'q'. That's a pretty awesome letter of the alphabet. Where was I?[/footnote] to see such little hatred in this thread from the likes of Furburt being put in the spotlight. It has been nice to see how Furburt is regarded as a user change from 'dude who makes way too many threads, posts too much, is on probation all the time and is basically the new Max' to one of the more respected and almost definitely the most popular member of this community.

Congratulations for earning a spotlight and all. You have way more than enough recognition here to deserve it.

...perhaps someone else can tell me Furburt's reasoning.
It's Furburt. He doesn't need any of this 'reasoning' behind what he wants. I thought that was pretty obvious by now if you've read enough of his posts on the forums.

Así lo haré, compañero.

Que el espíritu de Gnaaros estar con tu.

Also, you're using Google Translate, aren't you?!

I can tell, because usually, you don't use the Usted formal tense unless you're talking to someone in a polite manner. Google Translate, however, tends to default to it, for some odd reason.

Couldn't have put it better myself!

And yes, I'm very happy that there hasn't been any bad blood on this thread.

So far, anyway, I mean, it's up for a week.

Still, fingers crossed.
Haha I don't mind saying that that's true. I know some, but that was more than I've used in a while, and wanted to make sure I was getting it right. Though, I usually use the formal usted anyway, because I'm odd like that, and prefer to show the respect to everyone, not just bosses or elders.

Huh, for some reason that reminds me of the Suiseki or however you say that character.

Always adding Desu to the end of sentences, in her obsessive quest for total politeness.
Eh, I avoid complete politeness. But, as an asshole, I prefer at least being a respectful one. I don't give a rat's ass about offending someone, but I prefer to at least do it properly. "You, sir, are an overflowing and bulbous bag of shit.", is much more effective than "you're shit". That whole formal thing is just kinda how I play.

Good strategy!

Plus, I can imagine you wearing a monocle while saying that.

Actually, anyone starting a sentence with "You, sir," deserves a monocle.
I've always wanted a monocle. Damn glasses keep getting in the way :(
