before you react to a DPC-post with: "The dutch are......" and then something not so nice about the dutch.
There are a lot of DPC-trolls here, who give The Netherlands a bad reputation.
But I am dutch and a proud member of Team Anandtech and I hate to see remarks about my country, when you mean about 10 or 20 A**holes.
So please post anything you want (freedom of speech), but say DPC or troll when you mean that.

Thanks,
Thijs
 
I agree (and have from the beginning) whole-heartedly!!! 🙂

This is a DPC vs TA thing....NOT a country issue!!! We're proud to have you here KifArU as well as anyone.....Dutch, American, Spanish....whatever!!!!

We also are proud to have a Dutch person on our mini-team....PeterN is both a welcome addition to the Federation as well as (mainly) Team Anandtech!!!

I second your motion and am proud to be part of TEAM Anandtech! 🙂
 
Well, it depends on the content of the post. There're some prety cool DPCs too!

Good to have you on our team KifArU!
 
Finally got my point, huh ? 😉 No, just kidding. This is not the most important thing in the world. We should just have fun. There are touchy ppl everywhere.
 
KifArU,

Good point. I think I may have been guilty of this. My apologies to you, as well as the 90% of the DPCs who don't cause any problems.🙂 (The other 10% can bite me).

Hey I'm dutch to.. and a member of DPC.. normally I don't post anything here.. because I don't want to be a troll or something like that.. but I agree with everyone of you.. I'm a daily visitor at your forum.. just to read what you say about the DPC.. but some people of the DPC suddenly find this forum and start posting here.. to be honest I'm wanted to do the same thing.. and then you guys started to complain about the DPC members so I didn't post a single message.. and you were right.. some of my fellow DPC members are a bit annoying.. so I think it will be better if you keep complaining about them.. and we will do the same thing at Gathering of Tweakers to keep them away from this forum..
 
KifArU ..you are 100% right, I would like to offer my apology
for those that dont know better...

'10 or 20' out of 3000+ or the millions in the country is not very many.. the DPC is to be admired for what they have accomplished not judged by the actions of a few

the main problem is some people do 'react' and dont even read the post

and keep cracking for TA!
 
I suppose we (Team Anandtech members) also react badly when someone calls us an American team. The whole nationality thing can get in the way. Look at the Olympics. How many Gold, Silver or Bronze medals seems to be the major interest.

We are Team AnandTech. We will even accept the Borg on equal terms.

btw, what would an assimilated cow look like? What kind of implants?
 
I hereby 'bite' Russ 🙂 But it was a friendly bite anyways... 🙂 I'd like to end my posting with
a famous quote from a very wise man whose name I forgot :

"By knowing both hate and love a human becomes human; by forgetting to love and remembering to hate a human becomes a monster."

Sincerely yours,

Mr. Atheist

PS> Dog bless you all!
 
Oh let's just all have one big international group hug! For cryin' out loud! This isn't about nationality. It's about teams! It's about competition! I have absolutely no problem with the nationality of a TA member, but I do have a problem with non-TA RC5 members posting here in the guise of friendship, and us, TA, etal., responding with all this "feel-good" bullsh!t.

If you want to win, you have to be a killer. You have to be unmerciful. There is no such thing as "compassionate competition". It makes me sick to read some of the responses from TA members towards our competition. There's no killer instinct here. That's why we're getting spanked by almost a million blocks a day.
 
Just my 2 cents:

I'm a Dutch Cow too and really think you guys should just ignore the trolling DPC-ers, they really are _not_ your average dutch cowfarmer. The reason I joined DPC is that to me it's a pretty cool thing to have a rather large impact as a small country.

Just a Q though, how is that burn-in test coming up? Don't hear that much about it anymore 😉

Happy Grazing,

Niels
