This is just for fun, but everyone seems to be having a hoot with it so I've just started working on a nice, long, humorous article on how to learn to speak Sega Fan's dialect. The article will feature several lessons detailing parts of speech and their usage, as well as sentence structure and a glossary, but basic comprehension of English is assumed to be understood since Fanspeak is currently only a dialect. This will give me something to do while waiting on Steve's answers to my questions and while I start to prepare for the next contest. I've already finished a bit, and I have to tell you this is personally one of the funniest damn things I think I've ever done.

It should be a good addition to this site. It seems like the Sega Fan thread is being enjoyed by everyone (except anagrama, it seems). I know I am looking very forward to learning to hone my Fanspeak skills.

Personally I'm bored with the whole thing. What is the point in having segafan banned from the forum when everyone keeps posting as he would The guys lack of intelligence in unfortunate, putting an article on the site poking fun at that is pretty mean. If he was just a horrible person fair enough, but he's just not too bright.

Have you not read some of Stan's past posts on Sega Fan? They were pretty mean . And as you may have noticed, Sega Fan doesn't seem to notice the posts that emulate hid dialect. I say he should be unbanned so he himself can teach of the way of the Fan.

Call me a miserable sod, but I'd rather not log on to the forum in a morning to find out that 80% of the recent posts are all about this waste of time. And if you go ahead with a prolonged piss-take in the form of an article, I really hope it's not going to be part of the main site here - it's hardly the sort of thing that will make a casual visitor sign up and join the community.

I was going to put it in the Fun Stuff section, which in itself should indicate to the potential member that it isn't serious.

You miserable sod I find that one thread very amusing and am happy when there are new posts there.

I'm getting abit bored of it. Don't mind the odd post of updats of his activities on other forums but I hardly think a full artical is needed. How about putting our energys into creating some more good sega content on the forum

Yep, more Sega stuff, theres so much scope, articles one the history of the SMS/Sega, a look into the Brazilian/Jappanese/Korean side of things would be cool and Im, sure you guys can think of more stuff.

Oh well, all that work for nothing! After I finished most of it I was like what am I doing. It's still fun to me to read some of his inane posts though. Anyway, we did have plans to make separate articles on different country releases and such, but no one ever seemed to want to help out. I can only tell you stuff from the American side, eday could pound out Canada, but to do this we'll need help from other members.

Fook it off. Don't stick shite like that on the main site. It makes us look like a bunch of vindictive bastards. I wasn't up on what happened and I don't especially give a toss, but stuff like this should be left on the forum. If you wanna put it up stick it up here, but I think enough time has been wasted on the whole shennanigans, myself.

Geez, no one here likes to have any fun if it's not a video game except Stan and myself. I still want to see this article, so if it doesn't get put up, I want it sent to me. Then I'll help with the country releases

Hahaha, I must say it actually works, helping one to successfully duplicate his way of speaking. I can PM you the sections I finished.
