SD.net's Resident Russian.

Post by fgalkin »

That's the title I'm asking for. My reasons for it are:

1) I'm Russian

2) I reside here on SD.net. :)

Also, note that I have been here longer than most members (and even some SuperMods. :wink: ).

So, should I get it?

Заранее спасибо

Have a very nice day.

Only if you tell me how the ad you got Cyrillic to work on the board :D .

(not sure if ad is quite right, but d is the closest letter I could find to the Cyrillic).

Simple, you press Shift+Ctrl on the keyboard, and type in the message. :D

Вот так.

I tired writing it in Russian. It didn't work. Apparently, cyrillic works only in posts, and only if you don't press Preview.

Have a very nice day.

Eh...doesn't work on mine, since Shift+Ctrl+T opens my translator program. Kinda hard to type a sentence without the letter T.

No, you don't press and hold it. You see, Shift+Ctrl shifts the keyboard layout from English to Russian. Of course, you have to get Russian text support and Russian fonts first.

Have a very nice day.

I don't see any objections. You're fairly well-known, and have been around for a while. The only reason one might object is probaby because they don't think your post count is high enough. Aso, you might think of a better-sounding title later on.

Pavel was merely posing as a Russian. Seriously, he told me so, after I flamed him in Russian.

So far, I'm the only Russian on this board.

Have a very nice day.

Nyet, the comrade barely has half the posts required, isn't a moderator and if we base titles off ethnic backround then everyone would be eligible.
