I'm half German, most of my relatives in this state were born and raised
in germany, I lived with my German grandma for about three months, my
uncle has a German resteraunt(and the German club meets there). I wasn't
thinking of hitler at the time I posted that message(if I was, I would
have mentioned "sieg hiel") I was simply translateing the english words
to the best of my knowledge of the german language (yes my lord == ya
mine furor) I don't know the german word for "lord" so I just picked the
closest thing and I just replaced "sire" with "commandont". you must be
paranoid. or maybe you are ashamed of the german language, I am not
ashamed of the German language(even though Hitler spake it) nor am I
ashamed of america(even though the KKK is from america).
BTW, could you E-mail me those German Warcraft 2 sounds?
