  1. White only has one meaning on the battlefield... and sadly in this game some in France with its love of fashion, prefers this colour over all others.

    I think you're missing what's really important here. Is it gold fleur de lis on white or blue on black? We have the new facebook study shitstorm here!

  2. March, fourteenth, Anno Domini two thousand and sixteen

    To Privateer Capitaine Hethwill Eskeath, LDF of DAS

    Dear friend

    Please stop sending me these letters.

    With respect

    Secrétaire d'Etat à la démagogie, aux polémiques stériles et aux humiliations publiques de SLMFR

    // Sorry, I couldn't help myself XD

    That's how you know a french player who isn't actually french, he will be the one using french without making mistakes in each word.

    I've used the word french a lot there, french.

    It sounds like I'm swearing. Frenching french.

  3. Just for your information :) :

    Victor Hugo's correct quote is "L’Abaissé, c’était le peuple".

     

    In that sentence, in French, "L'Abaissé" is singular and "Le peuple" is singular (taken as one group).

    Frenchmen would say "The French people IS..." when one talks about the nation.

     

    "L'Abaissé" is an organisation : right. But if you talk about its members, you have to write "Les Abaissés".

     

    "Les Abaissé" is not in correct French, as "Several lowered Man" or "Five ship" isn't in correct English.

    You have to choose between :

    - L'Abaissé (the group)

    - Les Abaissés (the members of that group)

     

    Now, Frenchmen won't hang you at the highest mast, if you keep the current incorrect spelling.  :D 

    And more importantly, I wish all the best to your clan  :). Great to have another French clan.

     

    It's been a while I haven't read that book, I was like, 14? Didn't remember that name at all. And the good thing is the plural S doesn't change the pun with ABC as it's silent.

    Just for the pleasure, between two literate people, That citation in your signature hasn't been said nor written by Voltaire, but by an english student in the book friends of Voltaire. It's perhaps the most ill-attributed citation ever.

  4. Just one of your factions has to turn their flags somewhat and you can be friends all over again.

     

    You jest, but you would be surprised how often we're wondering if we're aiming at an ally or at an ennemy because those flags are hard to distinguish at long range when you're in a stressfull battle and have to decide fast. The fleur de lys flag was a lot better in the opinion of a good amount of french people.
