Hey Folks, whats up?
Chickens german posting was absolutely ok, so why are you folks laughing???
Guess it ´s because you don ´t understand even a word. Anyone here who can spell/write other languages???? Dont think so...
Hi Austin,

You Germans are notoriously unforgiving of people learning your language. Many see that as an unacceptable arrogance.

As a sometime student of German, I have experienced this first hand; even from German speaking friends.

Think of it as returning the favour. ;)

That said, we are a friendly bunch, so no need to take offence. :D

Cheers

oh come on, we germans are lo longer the black sheep for the rest of the world. A lot has changed since the last 50 Years. If anyone isn ´t able to speak german, we don ´t care because nealry 90% of us are able to speak at least one forign language.
Always the same stupid people say that "germany are arrongant" "frensh ones smell", "aussis are just prisoned english guys" and all that wired stuff.

Hope that someday those stupid stuff comes to an end.

Anyway: We are here to talk about SBM and i guess SBM will rise new hights.

Thats the other thing with you guys. Any criticism is automatically alleged to infer some connection with events of the past, and pleas are entered into of how much has changed. This I believe to distract and avoid the real issue. (Some of my best friends are Germans, this is how I know.) Calling me stupid also does nothing the alleviate the perception of arrogance.

No one called you black sheep, but intolerance of any mispronunciation, any mistake in grammar, is legendary and undeniable. I am sure it is because of pride your language, but it does not endear you to the rest of the world. What you said about Germans speaking other languages; you would much prefer to butcher ours than we butcher yours. But that's OK, we English speakers are very forgiving. That is why it is the international language of business etc etc.

Incidently, I think there are regional variations in attitude. I find the Bavarians thouroughly delightful people with not a hint of the above attitude... good beer too :D

Like I said before, my comments were not designed to offend, but to give you some understanding of why the folks here were taking the p!ss. That's what we Aussies do best, especially to folks that take themselves too seriously.

Don't get me wrong, we like Germans, we just can't help poking a bit of fun.

Servus :)

Oh my god, thats totally wired. Sorry, but "regional variations in attitude" is bull****.
Dont think that only a few poeple know folks from parts of germany but Bavaria or Berlin, but you can trust me, thats by far not everything....

About the beer: Yep, we have probably the best ones. :bier:

By the way: Nobody wants forign people to speak german perfect. As i said we are at least able to speak english...so why should anyone learn german???? Wouldn t make any sense. Or are you able to speak polish perfect in case of a poss vavation there??????

guess we have said everything about intercultural stuff, so what about SBM?

SBM?

It's a dog! There are better gold companies out there.

I hate to keep on about Bavarians, but ROTFL! They even look different, sound different. The rest of Germany make fun of them.(good natured fun of course) There is a discernable difference in culture. They are more akin to the Austrians than the Northern Germans.

To deny a difference in attitude is ridiculous. :2twocents

Back to SBM... seriously, I would look further afield, but do your own research.
 
Re: SBM - St. Barbara Mines

What the **** is a ROTFL :confused: Please Mr "i was in Germany" tell me. Can ´t wait.....

No comment aboutt your other wired stuff....

Well I guess we can add sarcastic to list now, hey? No sense of humour either. tsk tsk.

Do you own research on ROTFL. But what do you mean by "wired"? I don't understand your crappy English. And WTF is "poss vavation"?

Your English is possibly as bad as my German as you seem to have a problem with comprehension.

I said Bavarians are more akin to Austrians. I did not say Bavarians are Austrians.

Austin, It is not necessary to get so wound up. Relax a little!

I am totally relaxed.

Very funny, to see, that this should be a stock forum....haven ´t read to much about stocks right now.

If you tell that a bavarian, he would kick your ass. Sorry, that would be the same as would say a guy from Hamburg is more or less a danish guy.

I'm so pleased Austin. I thought I might have been upsetting you for a while there. :D

Back to stocks and SBM. I'm interested in why you guys trade SBM. Is it listed on your home exchange? Frankfurt? Are there other Aussie companies listed there?

OK I'll take your word for it, seeing as you are "Johnny on the spot".

However, one point: It would be impossible for any Bavarian to kick an Aussies "ass", as you so delicately put it. We Aussies are just far too hard for that to be possible. :D

If, views at City Financial I.F. pan out, then investors in gold shares and commodities may well be better off concerning themselves with the future US inflation picture and the US Dollars strength perspective.
