nice list. comes in handy
voted
Voted.
We who did not grow up with this language salute you! o7
Very useful article : ) You have my vote and sub!
Forgot CP=the one that gets blamed for everything that goes wrong in a country
;p
Yes you are absolutely right!! I will edit the given suggestions 🙂
nice copy-paste, UNL is dead and MANU is irrelevant. and besdes, IRC = Internet Relay Client.
I made my source know so I have the right to copy/past with consent from Swadowucks 😉
UNL is history that is important to Belgium and you are right on the MANU.
I don't know what means DoW or something like that
DoW - declaration of war. should be on the list as well, but good effort.
and even if it's "only" copy-paste.... we have some new players who don't really know if some article like that was published and frankly, players change, new come, old go etc. and it's good to keep us all informed about some things like this. therefore, good article, vote.
edit (DoW - declaration of war)
