I see alot of complaints about people who hail from Turkey in game and out of game. While Im sure that many of them are backed legitimately I thought today about how much of a pain in the ass it must for them with alot of people who dont speak their language, as it is for us trying to talk to them. I went online and found some turkish phrases/translations today and actually managed to have a very limited conversation with a Turkish guy.

Dont judge a book by its cover, or a person by their country imo ;)

What we see is just a Minority of them.

I come from a MMO I played 2 years,KnightOnline,the one that knoes this MMO knoes it probably the MMO with the most turks in it,they are being hated,they dupe/hack/cheat,but its not any turks,its some kids,yes some 11years old and lower kids.I talked with some mature turks and they are as any americans/canadians what so ever.So dont judge the whole contry,the idiot's you see are just some stupid kids.

you should gather up a bunch of the used phrases and make a turk guide for speaking on sro , I think someone did that awhile back with viet language or some others, could be useful for us though

I find it hard to keep an international union stick together. We've had some turkish guilds in our union come and go, and its usually because of one or two ignorant idiots in the union who thinks its ok to use racist slurs (including among other things blaming players from turkey for everything). Always try to make any player from any country feel welcomed in my union. The language difference isnt a barrier, its a reflection of our individual culture :)

I use these links to help me talk to my turkish guildmates and friends. Especially to Mel <3

I've only known good turkish players. They are cool to you if you are cool to them. Never had any problem with the Viets either. Those of you who complains about any of these, look at yourself first.

You should expect this from a country such as turkey where 95% of the population follow a religion which oppresses women, stones people to death and limits the right of its citizens. Much more radical than the White Christian extremist on America.


Their culture reflects upon this game. I personally think ITS NOT THE MINORITY. But the Majority of turks are plain rude, annoying, non-caring **** your muther rape your sister kind of ppl. I draw this from experience, there is no prejudice behind my observations ^^.

Have you ever been to Turkey? Or are you making a reference to Islam in general? Cause it is somewhat liberal there in Turkey.

Dont generalize your observations online, with how the majority of people in Turkey act. You get kids online, and kids act like kids.

I'm a Turk and i see that you dont know anything about Turks and Turkey..Have you ever been to Turkey? or Have you ever searched anything about Turkey or Turks? You think that Turkey is similar to Iran or Iraq but it's totally different here..what you do is misjudging a whole country because of some exceptionals..

I agree with you Riz. There is a guy of Turkish nationality in Nemesis and you won't be able to tell who he is :D

Usually we do find that a specific race has more idiots/noobs/scammers but it shouldn't be the standard by which we judge everyone in that race.

Oh, just wanted to let some of you out there know, I'm Chinese and I don't eat cats.

Its that suppose to convince us of something? Conclusive proof of some sort? o_0

You sir are a moron. Most Turkish kids playing sro cant speak English. Most American kids could (biiig assumption). Where do you think Turkish kids pick up such language? Media, online games tralalala.

English isnt my first language either, but I bet I'm more eloquent than you'll ever be RichardDawkins12. Bet you've never even read any of his books either <.< sheesh some people.

I've always wondered why there are so many Turkish people playing SRO (Polish people too). Their population in the game seems to be overrepresented in relation to their country's actual population. I've not seen the same phenomenon in other MMO games.

Its not just the turkish kiddies i hate. Its all the retarded kiddies in SRO.

The turkish ones just bug me a little bit more cause they don't understand what "go away" etc. means and most of the time keep pressing the exchange button.

( yes i know u can turn it off, but when u turn it off if he is exchanging u the game shuts down )

Right, you must be smart enough to understand then that most Turkish kids cant hold down a normal English conversation because English language is not part of their formal education there in Turkey. Well did you know that?
