 Basically because you are the ones moaning about it all the time.

 

 Ohhh i see,so the one who dont like anything,should be neglected and you should act/do whatever you like the way you like without taking anyone/anything into consideration!

That is the solution?!

I´m a bit lost now {#lang_emotions_unsure} - all I can say is that if there is someone who ´doesn´t like anything´ (presumably about the site) then maybe they shouldn´t be here.  And I still don´t see why I should alter the way I speak (as an Englishwoman) to fit in with others - do people do that normally?  And, actually, I don´t think I have ever personally insulted anyone on this site intentionally or otherwise (except Aenigma and that´s only because I love her )

Quoting TheAenigma

 However we have (hopefully temporarily) lost a valuable member of TC because of your rather over zealous deleting.  Personally I have lost a valuable favourite sparring partner

 

 Lost handsom because of deleting his post ?! {#lang_emotions_wtf}

Well,i cant take everyone approval to delete his/her post before i do lol

Do you think they would approve ?! {#lang_emotions_unsure}

Beside,i think handsom mature enough more than that

 And that is meaning,we are adapting the Western´s ways here in the site,so the Easterns who dont like it,can leave ?!

Surely when you are dealing with someone who is not from your country,nor from your people,nor understanding your habits,thinking...etc,you be alerted ?

And i also dont think I have ever personally insulted anyone on this site intentionally or otherwise and not Aenigma too even i do love her {#lang_emotions_razz} 

So that would make you a step head

Peace till we see how can we figure it out {#lang_emotions_confused} {#lang_emotions_flowers}

Hmmmm there seems to be a theme developing here!

Maybe...just maybe.... all these problems are because of the enormous amount of love everyone feels for me?

Well erm, yeah. Because the/some Easterners think ´we´ from the West have to adapt their ways and if we don´t like that, we have to go. Isn´t it? Biblical said: An eye for an eye?

 I just assumed this was a website based in the West.  Not that anyone should be purposefully insulted, but basically, if it is based in the West, then it would be predominately based on Western thought....silly me!  I am making WILD ASSUMPTIONS AGAIN!

And I guess being British makes you thick skinned as well.  This is the way we are.  Maybe instead of us having to think all the time that ´certain people´ might be insulted by our (to us) fairly innocuous comments, those people should learn to realise that from us these comments don´t have the same offensive value they seem determined to perceive and learn to stop taking so much offence to them.  Why do we have to change the way we are used to speaking?  We aren´t in an Eastern country tempering our language/speech for the sake of politeness - we are on a website basically set up to teach foreigners the Turkish language.  Well maybe we Brits and Americans should just carry on insulting each other in our normal friendly way and let the rest of them sit back in horror!

 

You are my favorite mod here.................finally logic.{#lang_emotions_flowers}

 Well,no

Having some where in the middle is the way i see it

Neither Westerns nor easterns have to go any where,we should and have to work it out,how to fit in with our own ways together.

Or else it would be true,the world cant fit for us both,its either yours or ours ?!
