And he's too stupid to take a hint. . .and comes over here to spread his particular social poison.
Yeah, I was just pointing out to all the people who took such relish in telling him that he was never in the guild that he never claimed to be.

you are inncorrect there are well over a hundred mebers of that guild and other people who subscribe to the message board what you saw was a small number of people incomparison to the actual total being vocal about it.some are people who also never were in the guild or long since stopped playing EQ if you dig deap enough you will find that at the very least I was tolerated since I have been a member since June 8, 2001 and havnt been banned yet.
no bones about it though I screwed up over there, although I could post a poll asking about myself and it would come out alot better than it would here.
Yeah, you're so loved that only one single soul made one single post in your support, while the vocal majority--you know, the active members of the community--considered you a complete waste of gravity and named their crap gallery after you.
Yeah, it's all politics.
Dude, I hate to break it to you, but all of human interaction is politics. That's what the fucking word means! And you'll always end up on the wrong end of it, because your insufferable arrogance encourages the little voices in your head to blame it on others because everyone who isn't vocal obviously supports you.

He claimed to be a member of their board. Even the real members of the guild said that he isn't a member of jack or shit, guild or boards. They said he has no reason to post there. Yet he paid to support those boards just like he did here.
Why?
Because he thinks that it gives him a magic cloak of protection. Well, it seems that they are quite happy to suck money off him and keep him confined to his own forum. That way everyone can laugh at what a moron he is.

We already know that Somthor likes to make low, uncouth blows, but the fact is that if you have a job that pays you what you'd like to make for a reasonable expectation of work, then anyone taking a shot at you for it, especially without knowing any better, is obviously trolling (something else we know Somthor to do). It's like Snoota and his job at McDonald's; everyone cracked the usual fast food job jokes because they thought it was witty or funny or clever, but it wasn't. Snoota had/has a good position. Most people around here can't say the same thing. And most people who take shots are either sitting on their laurels, recounting victories of the past (which is what Somthor likes to do...he likes to wave the flag that he was in the military and he's had so many jobs and works in a day care center or whatever the hell his job this week is, and that makes him the best person to cast stones at others, blah blah blah), or they're concealing what they do for a job. Parcelan worked at a book store for a while, and a bar after that. Good, solid jobs for someone his age. A bar wouldn't be my choice, but hey...it's not my choice to make.
I guess the job thing just bugs me, especially when inbred, unintelligent, arrogant, slack-jawed, self-aggrandizing graduates of the University of "Some Guy Told Me" with PhD's in "I found it on the web" and "Sounds Good To Me" is the one taking the shots.
I'd only worry about my job if someone who manually masturbates cows for artificial insemination purposes told me "dude...I'd rather be doing this than your job". And even then, maybe not.

Certainly an interesting thread. Only going to speak on one part of it, though. More and more, in my current job search, especially as I work in the CS area, I am seeing the demand for bilingual agents, and they will NOT take an employee if they do not speak both English and Spanish.
I find this disturbing. I am aware that the US has no official language, but the common consensus is, yes, we speak English for the most part. Having there be such an influx of illegal immigration both South and even here in Indiana to require that we constantly have bilingual requirements on something as basic as a customer service job is in my eyes, frankly wrong. I don't know Spanish. Not out of laziness, but I took three years of French in high school. I resent the fact that despite having 5 years of extensive customer service experience, I can't get a job in my own country because I don't speak the language of another one, and it's because of others too lazy to learn the language before they come here.
So I guess you could say I would be against something like that was proposed. At least if it didn't require them to speak the language of the country they want to work in.
Oh, and another gem. I was at the license branch with Deth getting his Indiana license and the man in front of us, who was obviously of some manner of Latino or Mexican origin, was arranging to have his test *read* to him. I'm a little scared there's someone out there they're giving a license to who won't even be able to read the street signs, because he didn't both learning our language, and we're actually catering to that by reading him his driver's test. That's a little too far in my eyes.

They do that here too Lyinar.. Only they dont read the licence test out in the other language.. they have special copies printed in 32 different languages depending on what you speak...
All the street signs, however, are in English only...

I know what you are talking about. they say Bilingual prefered you are bilingual but then they Discriminate against you becuse its not spanish. I had the same problems except I knew ASL.
they will hire a person who is a slob and no job history no education not even a GED over a college grad in order to have a spanish interpertur. THOSE PEOPLE need to provide thier own translators, we as a nation shouldnt have to bend over backwords to accomdate them AND we shouldnt be discriminated against for not speaking THEIR lingo.
in the past immigrents were forced to learn english if thye wanted to succeed these days we are too weepy and PC to make them MELD into OUR culture. this is how you end up with sects in a nation.
imagine if all the Irish and germans and swedes ..chinese from the 1800's had done this.
What about situations with special directions? If you can't speak the language enough to read a test that barely literate native speakers can understand, how well will you do following signs with special directions?
I don't mind folks coming and working in the U.S., and I don't resent them forming up in their own little communities. Geography tells me that that happens in a melting pot society is that clumps of one racial, ethnic, or national origin group will clump together and as they assimilate they take on the traits of the greater whole and some of their traits are absorbed into the greater body. But in the past, that model assumed that if you came from someplace else, the language you get things done in here is English. That's shifting, and there's no infrastructure to help support it.

They were offering to read the test to this man who could barely even speak English, let alone read it, I'm sure.
I'm not prejudiced by any means, but there have been a lot of accidents here lately involving those of Latino or Mexican descent who had licenses and they really really shouldn't have. And they never had insurance in many of these cases, either, making it even more of a problem for the other people in question, who were usually English-speaking drivers native to the state.
I just think if people are going to live here, drive here, and work here, they need to know the language.

they dont need insurance they can jsut skip the border if they get in trouble. worst thats going to happen is deportation until they sneak back in under an assumed name.

When I was at the DMV getting a drivers permit, I saw something perhaps more disturbing. I took the multiple choice test, and as I was turning it in I saw an old man at the desk turning his in. The women told him he didnt have enough of the answers filled in in the section where you match signs and what they mean. He said that was because he didn't know some of them. She said she wouldn't be able to pass him if he turns it in like that, then she sat there and started giving him hints on the ones he couldn't get.
At least with the guy you mentioned, he can still identify most signs by shape and color. And also, he might be able to read the simple words on street signs, but needs help for the written multiple choice questions about what to do around a bus, ettc.

That's why a lot of insurance companies are pushing for laws to change so that the elderly have to take DL tests more often after a certain age. But in retirement states (like Florida) you'll never see it. Too many codgers.
always thought they should tie it to reciveing SS payments. that way its not really tie to age and thus isnt realy discrimatory.
you recive retirement benifits? then you have to take a drivers test everyother year with vision testing.
the scary thing is that as a senior driver you can becuse of your usualy safe driving record go as long as 16 years without a test. even if you make a error and do a trafic infraction most cops will give you a break becuse who wants to be mean to grandma or grampa.

It's not a matter of skipping the boarder, but it is a problem when there's no recourse for the person who was hit by them. They have no insurance company they can go through to get the money to fix or replace their car with. And in most cases they'd have to shell out money for court costs and it was iffy if they would even recover anything that way.
So because someone had a license that shouldn't, and because we're making exceptions about how to get a license, another legal driver who was responsible has to pay the price. That's just not right to me.

You mean like everyone in the world who wants to work IT has to learn English at least semi-fluently?
And not being bi-lingual is unheard of in Europe. Most everyone in Europe speaks English way better than they are willing to admit, and usually speaks at least one other language as well as their native language.
quote:
Everyone wondered WTF when Vernaltemptress wrote:
The demand for bi-lingual employees is a marketing issue. In order to get more dollars, a company must hire employees who speak a customer's language. Else, the customer will do business with a competitor. Hence, why you are seeing this requirement. In California, my nephew is required to learn Spanish in public elementary school because of the influx of children who are immigrating from Mexico. Is this right? All I can say is that the alternative would not be pretty because then only those children whose parents afforded them the opportunity to learn Spanish would speak it and raise the competition for jobs in California. With the Spanish in schools requirement, all students are equally prepared.And not being bi-lingual is unheard of in Europe. Most everyone in Europe speaks English way better than they are willing to admit, and usually speaks at least one other language as well as their native language.
This is what I mean, though. This requirement is happening because people refuse to learn the language of the country they are coming to, and instead force us to have to cater to them and learn their language. I'm sorry. That's not right. We speak English in America. My German and French ancestors, when they came here, had to learn the language to fit in. I don't speak German or French fluently right now because somewhere down the line, they had to communicate with those around them, and so knowing English passed on down the line. Why should it be any different for people who can't be bothered to even come into the country legally and try to abide by our laws?

is beyond the free market the worst offenders are civil service jobs, where the consumer is actualy legaly obligated to provide their own interperter yet becuse we are all so PC we provide it for them.
I'm all for being Bi-lingual but it shouldnt matter what you have chosen your second language to be. all Should carry the same wieght and not be a discriminating factor which it curently is.
I once applied for a job with the probation dept. Now I have a Masters in Criminology and im a vet and I had simular past work. I was not given the job in favor of a hispanic girl who had only her HS diploma becuse she was bilingual. I challenged the choice stateing that I was also Bi lingual and that no where in the job discription did it say it was required to speak spanish, however it did say you needed a 2 year degree at LEAST to apply for the job (waived with experience) I further added that no one in thier deptment could provide ASL services where several could speak spanish. all this got me now where. I filed a complaint with the labour board which also went no where.
yeah I have a bit of anger toward the whole issue of ilegals in the US and people who are here who arent makeing the effort to learn our language.
