    Someone can translate this? I don't know even one German word.

    Thanks! And when the need arise, I will always be there to translate vital information from Hungarian. :)P)

    There's plenty that I don't know, but I try to play it down as much as possible by being loud.
    Maybe I'll solve that problem in the future and become the world's biggest asshole.
    But hey, thanks Telcontar!

    You also seem to play it down by being frequent...

    Anyway, being lound is a very good strategy for hiding ones unknowledge...

    Actually, that phrase is a German call to arms. It was often used by Nazi's during the war as a secret way to tell their compatriats to kill Englishmen.

    Eh...I was confused by the lack of capital letters...anyway, the message is essentially the same, minus the person in mine.
