A Mhic Léinn na Gaeilge,
Bhí freagra agat ar 'Cás Cúirte Mháire Nic an Bhaird' nach bhfuil ann níos mó. Seo é mo fhreagra.
Tá tú ag briseadh na rialacha anseo díreach tar éis na rialacha sin a léamh.
Ní dóigh liom féin go bhfuil "Get a life, lady" ná an tacaíocht a thug tú don ráiteas sin 'Polite.'
Níor scríobh mé amach, mar a scríobh tusa amach, sliocht politiciúil fada i mBéarla. Ach má tá tú i ndáirire (agus ní chreidim é) ag iarraidh Gaeilge a chuir air, ba mhaith liom cúnamh a thabhairt duit. Ach deirim cúnamh. Caithfidh tú iarracht a dhéanamh tú fhéin ar dtús. Ach, led' thoil, ná bíodh na CAPITALS againn Róman, cuireann sé daoine ar buile. Agus ón bheirt agaibh, le bhúr dtoil, politeness please,
Ach ansin léigh mé an teachtaireacht ó Chaoimhín.

A Chaoimhín,
Tá an bua ag na daoine a úsáideann na CAPITALS agus a deireann ‘Oh really???’ d’Abigail. Tá mé ag fágáil slán libh. Faighim i bhfad ró-thuirseach anseo. Ní fiú é. Tá mé ag fáil an tabhairt amach i gcónaí. Tá cosc ar dhaoine atá ag iarraidh caint faoi chúrsaí gan screadadh agus tá tacaíocht dóibh siúd atá ag béicíl. Tá mé tuirseach. Ní fheicim an ciall ann,
Slán le Daltaí,

Caitríona

Caitríona ná fág, Caitheann tú fanacht ann liomsa! Beidh díospóireachtaí agus rudaí eile iontacha ar siúl againne. Ná fág led do thoil!

Nílim ar eolas mar gheall ar an dtopic ach ná thug aon aird do dhaoine mar sin.!
Fan anseo!
Agus Román cén fáth a úsáideann tú CAPITALS chomh minic-níl aon ghá leis- tá sé chomh páistiúil agus míchiallmhar. Stop é sin.

Níl sé leath chomh pitiful agus dó nós scairteadh ar dhaoine as Béarla, in ionad freagra a thabhairt as Gaeilge ar tcht a bhí as Gaeilge.

Is trua liom d'imeacht, a Chaitríona, ach tuigim do chás. Ní mór muineál teann a bheith agat anseo.

Aonghuis,

I see you need a sacrificial lamb for certain people to be free to express their concerns for Condi before Congress. I got the message - so for Catriona to revel in this utterly important and world-saving activity I will leave myself.

Unfortunately this board has degenerated into Gay and Lesbian, Church, Condi, GWB and other similar stuff circulation medium and has only a vague resemblance to the place I discovered 3 years ago. In those (now seemingly very distant) times the Board was pre-ocupied with Irish language studies only. And although I bemoaned all those "Let the darkness fathom the brightness of my other convolution"-type translation requests - Now I see that this was a real pastoral idilly in comparison what the board has become.

Elections is US come and go - but the Irish stays. Stays with me, with people I got interested in the language, and at my slow but sure pace I will become a fluent speaker - with or without this Board.

So - don't worry - nobody will disturb you in Condi-plé.

Ar aghaidh leat!

Gaelainn na Mumha abú!

Róman,

is dona liomsa imeacht aoinne ón gclár seo.

Bíonn thíos seal agus thuas seal i ngach comhluadar. Táim cinnte go bhfuil nósanna agamsa a chuireann isteach ar dhaoine, agus taim buíoch má chuirtear ar mo shúile iad - go poiblí nó go rúnda - is chuige sin atá mo sheoladh r-phoist ar fáil anseo.

Sháraigh tusa nós imeachta fairsing ar an idirlíon - gurbh ionann ceannlitreacha agus scairteadh. Níl do sheoladh agam, mar sin, ní raibh de rogha agam ach é chuir ar do shúile go poiblí.

Ach ní cúis é sin go n'imeofá.

Tá tabhácht ag baint le do bheith anseo don a lán daoine.

Trí Bhéarla bhuel ní bheidh tú ina chainteoir líofa má úsáideann tú Béarla an t-am ar fad go háirithe ar shúiomh a bhaineann leis an nGaeilge.

this board has degenerated into Gay and Lesbian, Church, Condi, GWB and other similar stuff circulation medium

Bhuel ní aontaím in aon chor leatsa, táimid go léir in ann plé a chur ar siúl chomh fada agus a bhíonn siad trí Ghaeilge nó an cuid is mó.

Aontaím le hAonghus níl sé róbhéasach CAPITALS a úsáíd. Tá sé beagnach cosúil go bhfuil tú ag béicéil.

Fan Caitríona! Mó léan!

A Róman, you have been hereby tried and found guilty and convicted of a CAPITAL offense! And your "sentence" (pun intended) is you can only use Caighdeán Oifigiúl for the rest of the month.

As far as my crime of additional punctuation, there's still a big question mark (???)as to my culpability.

A Chaitríona,

Please stay! You're such a great contibutor to this site. It was just a few days ago, when I paid tribute to you and others for help that you showed up again. I was so happy to hear from you again. Let's not have politics get in the way of all the fun we have here. Besides, if you stay around and enjoy the fun, I'll probably learn enough Irish to understand what you wrote about me above!

Ar ábhar eile, Ba chóir go mbeimid in ann díospóireachtaí mar gheall ar pholaitíocht agus araile
a fháíl ach caitheann daoine a bheith fhoighneach leis rudaí a deireann daoine agus caitheann daoine Gaeilge a úsáid cuid is mó den am.(Mise san áireamh ní rabhas ró-áthasach an tseachtain sin agus mar sin chuas as mo mheabhair leis an méid a dúirt daoine eile!)

An t-am go léir a déarfainn, más ábhar conspóideach atá faoi chaibidil. B'fhéidir gur cheart dúinn díospóireachtaí mar sin a choinneáil sa "Ghaeltacht", thíos. Ach b'fhearr liom polaitíocht agus creideamh a sheachaint, más féidir, de ghrá an réitigh.

Tá mé ag súil nach gceilfidh Caitríona a cuid dea-Ghaeilge orainn go ceann i bhfad! Beidh fáilte roimpi anseo i gcónaí.

I'M PISSED (yes I used capitals)

I'm pissed because people I care about want to leave. I don't take well to such things because I get attached to people far too easily and when they leave for juvenile reasons it makes me upset, upset that they are not tougher, upset that they can't just stick it out, upset that they would lose their tempers and take off.

If the adults (which most are) on this board could learn to not get so upset with each other and name call, then people would not be far too skittish. If people were not so skittish then we would all feel safer with each other and not have to worry about scaring each other away. It apparently is a delicate ballance that many people seem to not be able to attain.

For sure and I'm not going anywhare because I'm a tough person and I don't lose my temper so I'll not be going from fright and I'll not be going from rage.

I care about Caitriona and Roman, flaws or no, and I want them to stay here.

A Chaitriona, I know you are very sensitive but you can't let other people's comments get the better of you like that. If someone says something that offends you just ignore them or respond back, in a productive way.

A Romain, you definitely are overly particular about some things but you are so smart and whether we agree about everything is beside the point. I hope you are not still unhappy with me. Just think about it and don't get so riled over what happens here.

I want both of you to stay.

I suspect that someone may write to me and say that I'm merely a young woman with little life experience and thus I have no business telling anyone what to do. Your opinions are duely noted and so there will be no need to write them here.

Beir bua agus beannacht

I think you might find, Ríona, that rather than giving up and surrending, these people think that there's nothing worth fighting for, that there's nothing to salvage.

It apparently is a delicate ballance that many people seem to not be able to attain.

Usually when discussion forums are split into different subjects (e.g. Archery, Swimming, Computer Gaming), people tend to be likeminded, and this tends to result in there being a minimum of conflict. The problem with this site, however, is that you have people here for all sorts of different reasons. There's Gaeilge enthusiasts, and then there are linguists. The two clash. The linguists tend to be more vehement and aggressive, while the enthusiasts lay off on the aggression because they realise that it only serves to destroy the group further. This is why the enthusiasts tend to just leave, resigning to the fact that nothing can be salvaged.

quote:

The only problem is that one's enjoyment here is greatly decreased when having to read through stuff that they simply just don't want to have to read.

Since I am a 'newbie' and can see that there is some conflict; I too encourage those who wish to leave to stay on.

New people will come on all the time (like me and Liam) and need people who are not specialist; but here to improve themselves; find and give answers to problems; and interact with others, perhaps because this is their passion.

Passioniate people are on the far curve of the bell; you are more than leaders; you are the creative agent behind any agenda. Look at environmental issues; 30 years ago it was a new subject in my sons 1st grade class; because passioniate people like you put it in front of all of us and drove us on to do it. The specialist are great for nailing down the issue; and we need them as well.
Please stay.

well, you never have to read stuff you don't want to...thats the beauty of a board like this.

One of the things I like about the board is that it's relatively sedate and that people are relatively nice to each other.

Try www.irishgaelictranslator.com or watch http://chiffboard.mati.ca/viewforum.php?f=6&sid=170ca27f63ddaa36ef0db9fac0065f44
for awhile and see what it's *really* like to have a board full of people who can't go three threads without a flame war. The uilleann pipe board got so bad so often that the moderator resorted to banning people and closing the board entirely for weeks at a time, threatening to remove it permanently if the malcontents didn't start behaving.

As a result, I barely pop into either of them to lurk, much less post.

Bhuel tá sé sin an-bhrónach agus bhí suim láidir ag na daoine a d'fhág orainn. Im thuairim caitheann na daoine Rómán agus Kieran imeacht. Sin Sin.

Ghoilfeadh sé go mór orm dá n-imeodh tú uainn. Bí foighneach agus b'fhéidir tóg sos beag má's gá dhuit, ach ansin, tar ar ais chugainn.

Ba mhór an lochtú orainn dá mothódh duine nach bhféadfadh sé/sí fanacht in ár measc.

Fanfaidh tú, só? Tá súil agam.

Dá mba rud é gur mhian liom fóram a fhágáil, d'fhágfainn é, sin é.
Ní thuigim cad ina thaobh gur ghá do dhuine ar bith 'slán fada' a rá. Sin ráite, is maith an siamsaíocht í, grma. ;)

Come now, Kieran has only been here a short time so I find it difficult to believe that anyone left because of him. Thus this calls into question your statement that people have left because of Roman due to sketchiness. Hmmmmmmm. Something to think about isn't it. I find it rather odd that you would get so riled over this and continue to post such notes since Roman has established that he is not visiting anymore.
