I thought I'd just take a little walk down memory lane. In my V.8 truth sauce addition, I spoke out against the Brazilian site and was negged rightfully so. I mean, the truth hurts. Let's just take a look at my words, yes?

DATE MARCH 3rd,

What I want to know is why in the HELL would there be any need for an Brazilian big brother site? What different purpose does it serve from tengaged? Let me ask this next point. We HAD casting games in several different languages INCLUDING Portuguese, do you know where that went? NOWHERE! The games didn’t start for months at a time; because there weren’t 10 people willing to join the damn thing! So WHAT makes ANYONE believe this site is going to float?
---
It’s not.
---
If anything this hurts tengaged. You’ll get a bunch of non Portuguese speakers, running over to the other site, to try to DOMINATE over there. To be then next HOF’er the next Daniel, and rockgodess. This undercuts the tengaged population to a certain sum.

BACK TO REGULAR DAY

I told you so. How many blogs have you all seen annoucing their move to Tengaged Brazil for one reason or another? Now, I know the mifits are there speaking english, but that's expected of them. Everyone else? Imitation.
--
P.S- For the 100 people vowing to make there way to the site to learn the english, 90% of you should cut the bullcrap. How many langauge lessons have you taken to learn portugeese? How many computer programs, or lessons have you done? None. How many of you decided to suddenly learn the langauge the minute the site went up?
--
Yup. That sums it all up pretty well. Throwing a bunch of words into a translator isn't going to help you learn the langauge in almost all cases. Nice try though.
Dur, dur, dur...You took offense.

Obviously, my comment struck you. Since, you took it upon yourself to reply to a comment, you've just awknowledge doesn't apply to you.

Fail.
Someone opened an account over there under my screen name here (tommyg) then offered to give it to me if I wanted. I don't speak Portuguese, I have no immediate desire to learn it, nor do I live in or have visited Brazil. Why do I want this account?
But I would think that randomize may have a plan for why he went that route. It may work out, it might not. Everything starts out as a test and hopefully gets better. No matter how bad it may look at the time.
His plan was to pay homage to his hertiege. I'm almost sure, he's portugeese himself.
--
Everyone who is banned here from this day forward, will go over there. There will be more english people using translators, then there will be speaking portugeese. By god the minute they open up a stars game, they're doomed.
--
I respect your opinion, Phanne. And for the most part, you do have a point. I just don't see it that way, and nobody can respond accordingly, with nothing more than a neg post.
My question is this: If there is more people using a TRASLATOR than speaking the actual langauge, is there still a point for the website?
--
I mean, from a business stand point, not ''let's think about the minority of portugeese speakers'' cliche.
