German thing

I only want to ask sceners from germany, why they release so much things in german language? Why they can't do it in English? In german, it will be only for german speak, but most of us can speak only english, so why they want to do things for all of us? Maybe there is still feeling in them, that they are something special and they don't want respect everyone. You know, who staretd two world wars and why!!!

This turned out to become a fight and philosophy thing. Some people are sounding like a PhD.

And once again: Thanks for fighting/protecting us! :)
Well, we can't change the past, of course, but I am not a grandfather and I didn't choose where to see the light when I was born.
And well, I use English just to speak to everyone, and I am not stereotypically thinking in any way.
I spoke to many people around the globe (non C64 sceners) and of course some dislike me, because I Am German, but I think that's only making sad and it's not fair!

I don't think Germans are good English speakers (to come back to the original topic), but we speak English aswell.

Meanwhile many countries claim to have English as mother tongue (official, some countries have 2-3 mother tongues), this is defined by their goverment. One of such examples is China, Malaysia, Japan.

But I have to admit, I found it (in my area) impossible to buy and cards in English language!!!

Well, I find some comments of you Sad and also of Puterman really strange here. And TMR is fighting great for us, thanks! :)

That's it here.

Hey, I'm not too fond of the Germans either, but that has more to do with football than with WW2.

I'm joking .. kinda ..

What I do dislike however are German tourists in Holland who expect you to understand & speak German. Which I do, but refuse to let them know. But when they want to communicate with other German people, ofcourse they are free to use that language. Plus, I bet those diskmags are boring anyway :)

tdj: funny as you mention it, when I'm to Holland and I speak English, people usually tell me that I could also speak German to them as they say they understand that. Probably people from big cities are more used to tourists.

sad: word to your last comment. the average german idiot behaves like a new herrenmensch since the re-unity of 1990.
my point is that it's a waste of time to demand ugly demos being translated into English or argumenting with brain-washed lamers about the topic when you could use energy to kick out the new bureau of the Sudetengermans out of Prague.

In diesem Sinne.. Deutschland verrecke, ihr Computerspacken!

Sad, what I don't understand, how can you be angry with people for not using English, when you do the same?

Because it sure as hell ain't English you're typing here, more some kind of alien language that might end up in the next Star Wars movie.

This is a discussion and you've threatened Puterman because you didn't understand what he said.

All i'm doing is commenting about what's gone before;

Puterman said "Releasing stuff in German isn't a sign of national socialism. It just means that you're a part of the retard scene." which means (in this context) that if you release in German, you're a retard. So *you* replied with "I'm angry and I hope, that I will meet you on some party and kick your ass.".

Why do you want to kick his arse if he *agrees* with you and feels that German-only products are part of the "retard scene"? Don't you feel you owe him an apology if not all the Germans you've offended?
