Beautiful work!
The difficult we do right away...

Very nice. Now go to sleep.

I'm sure we all want to learn what you have learned... You know, some articles... Now that you solved the problem of sleeping, you probably have all the time you need

Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?

Very nice.
As someone already mentioned, it would be nice to have an article describing the difficulties and "gotchas" you had doing the conversion.

Amateurs. Let's talk again when they stop bringing chaos mostly to themselves.
The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here

Why is there an Indian and Chinese forum under "Non-English" but nothing for everyone else? The Chinese one is deserted and the Indian one is mostly English anyway - though most of the content is incomprehensible to me

Because those two forums were specifically requested years ago.

Don't Strines speak (a dialect of) English?
(Or at least of Cockney )

Yeah, well, now that the Bad Word filter has been upgraded it's a possibility.

Didn't we play this game a few months back and I broke it again without trying anything sneaky?

I noticed you didn't reply to any of my taunting at the time.

You not noticing I neutered your swearing, me not replying to your taunting.

I see, just seemed strange that's all. Although these are the most populous nations, the number of internet users is surely greater in European countries.
The Chinese one's probably blocked over there I presume, or everyone uses the local forums. Maybe a Japanese forum would attract more visitors. Or maybe not, they're sure to have plenty of their own places they haunt already.
Maybe one catch-all international forum? The Babel forum? Of course that would be a nightmare to moderate.

At one stage we had a bunch if chinese trying to get support in their language.
As for the indian one, unless you love cricket don't bother, that one is cultural rather than language. I think it was requested just to get the cricket out of the Lounge, 5 page threads discussing the attributes of player was not interesting to any but those participating.

It's mainly politics now. You'll be hard pressed to find any cricket. The 5 page threads you mention were never in the lounge I don't think. The creation of Git coincided with the cricket World Cup so there was a lot of cricket in there to start with.
See Petes response for the true original reason.

I was personally rather disappointed at the lack of cricket discussion there during the England India series.
|
|
|
|
|
Yeah partly my fault, my current domestic situation means I haven't watched much cricket and wasn't really following it. I think the first test I only checked the result when the second test started.
You should have roasted me and tagged me in a post to get the discussion started.

The Indian forum was requested because we had many new Indian users who joined and weren't aware of the etiquette of the lounge. Unfortunately they tended to get a lot of abuse. Having a separate forum helped introduce them to the expected behaviour of the site without them being attacked. This is a good thing.
