    Clayton,

    One: This is ridiculous
    Two: It's Italian
    Three: It's gonna get closed
    Four: If you continue like this, no chance of recovering your account back.

    Yes. If you wanted to start a new topic about learning italian the Watchtower is not the place to do it. You could have done it in the front room "how many of us speak italian? any pointers for a new person who is learning?" that sort of thing.

    The watchtower is for discussing the .org.

    Sorry to say this, but this is not Italian. Only word you got right was 'Vale', which means farewell.

    Salve = Safe
    Yes = Si
    Telephone = Telefono

    Longivox is not a word.
    Ita vero means true (ita is not a word)

    opps I ment I am learning Latin not Italin. And the other thing is my account has no frontroom.

    I have just arrived here at the first stop on my way to Mossoerii. I have come to watch my 17 year old brother graduate from the Army. He was in Fort Leanderd Wood. I must say the traffic cones are alot differant here than they are back in NC. On the way down (or up) here I passed a valcano in the NC mountians. And Dgb please take a chill pill a big one too. But be shure not to choke. And I do have my Latin CD's with me (thank god i never forgot them).

    Mod(s) please do not close this thread the only reason I put it here was because the frontrooom is off limits for me. I wish I could prove it to you. Wait ask Tosainu to give you the password for my account so you could see that I am blocked from the front room.

    Clayton, why not just use a Latin Translator instead?I got one for free of the net only yesterday, and it works fine. It's not entirely accurate, but it saves me the trouble of having to learn latin. And no offence, but you need to work on your english before you think of doing a foreign language.

    Well, as I said, it`s not, and they invented some new, more modern words quite recently.

    I think you guys are doing incredibly mean to clayton. I've seen things like this being said to him over and over.

    Can't you guys just leave it out? I think it's far more pointless then what he's doing. He's just being (too) enthusiast. You guys are hurting him and IMO it's got to stop.

    I hope you get back soon, Clayton.

    ps: entrance hall is the best alternative for frontroom I think.

    Before everyone jumps on the "poor Clayton" bandwagon, let me just say a couple of things. First, Clayton deserves to be banned. There aren't a whole bunch of people I'll say that about but I can say this about him with absolute certainty. I can't tell you why (sorry guys, internal matters) but he really, REALLY deserved to be banned. Second is that I would ask you guys to read between the lines. Read this again:


    Craterus:
    Is that permanently?

    And, if you can say, what did he fail to do?

    Craterus pretty much sums up the principle questions here. The only one he's missing is " What did he do initially?"
    Funny thing is that you guys don't need to even ask these questions; all of them can be answered from the available information. All you've got to do is think about it. (And if you can't figure it out, I'll even connect some of the dots for you later. Right now though I've got to go.)
    The surest way to lose the respect of one's peers is to take a stand on principle...alone.
