Returning playing looking for an SG!

Hi guys,

I've been away from the game now for pretty much a year or so and now i have decided to return!

I've got many 50's and still a reasonable knowledge of the game, well the old stuff anyway. :3

Any SGs that want a nice, new, shiny member?

Preferably an active SG with lots of peoples.

Welcome back, Defendrio!

Always good to see another Champion return to the game!

Cheers man, feels nice to be back playing again, still getting used to all the new changes with the incarnate stuff and all that jazz.

But hey, I'll get used to it eventually!

Welcome back

Hey I remember you!

I can't remember if you were friend or FOE, so welcome back anyhows.

Heh, Dollmistress. I think I remember you too. Having the same dilemma, maybe foes in the past but friends in the future?

If you are playing on Champion.

You are already in an SG.

*Tips hat*

I'll be seein' ya in-game bro.



**Edit** pst Rio, you screwed up the name of your thread :P

Im in the same boat, back from years ago ....

Looking for groups of all sorts this weekend.

Unitron 46 Heals, DarkUniTron 50 Scrapps

Hope I bump into some of you....

Hi!

As mentioned above, Champion is basically a really big SG. I can't even remember the last time I actually posted something on coalition chat.

Seek out some of the big, busy channels and you'll have no problems. BMT, Darkguard Network and Champions United are three great ones.

Hope to see you in game!

Oh look it's Rio.

her name is riooooo and she dancesssss on the sannnnddddd

I figure we'll see a lot of returnees before the year is out.

Lol. Hi Silas.

SG/VG, whatever, same idea.

No dude, an SG. An comes before a noun when the noun starts with a vowel.

An apple = correct

An house = NEIN FALSCH

Actually, an comes before a noun when the noun begins with a vowel sound, not just a vowel. That's why "an honor" is proper and "a UFO" is also proper.

In this case, "an SG" is correct because the letter S when pronounced begins with the sound of the vowel "e" (ěs jē), however a SG could also be correct if you pronounce SG as "supergroup".

Also, hai Rio.

Really? Cool, learn something new everyday.

Makes sense though, when I say it out loud. An supergroup sounds wrong, an ess gee sounds fine.

English is a funny old thing.

This is something I've discussed a lot with my coworkers. They complain that English is really difficult, precisely for the reasons we've come across here. Idiosyncratic pronunciation, having several words which mean technically the same thing but have very subtle differences in connotation/meaning.

I disagree. I think English is easy to learn, difficult to master. Mechanically English is a relatively straightforward language. English only has two 'real' tenses, four if you include past perfect and present progressive. German has 4-6. English has one word for 'the', German has three. English nouns don't have gender, many languages do. Oh, and the words for 'the' in German also change based on the gender of the noun.

Once you learn the pronunciation rules for German, you can say pretty much any word correctly, even if you've never seen it before. This is not the case for English. With an intermediate grasp of English you may pronounce all kinds of words wrong, but you can speak technically correct English pretty easily. You can't do that with most continental European languages.

So cast my vote for English as easy to learn, difficult to master. I'm definitely glad I didn't have to learn it as a foreign language
