--- Comment #29 from Espreon <majora...@gmail.com> ---
Siebrand,

May I ask that instead of bullying us, you make productive use of your time to
work on something positive? Or if you truly need to bully someone, why not
bully some of the other "dead" language lovers like the Latin (la), Church
Slavonic (cu), or Classical Nahuatl (nah) people?

And before you ask that we make more productive use of our time, keep in mind
that being able to have a place to have most things in Old English is very
important to us, for we want to be able to use the language in a modern context
and to be able to be immersed in it. Old English and its modern use may be a
joke to you, but it holds a very high place in our hearts and souls, for the
knowledge and use of this beautiful language allows us to connect to our
ancestors and celebrate our heritage, unlike Modern English. And, for some,
knowledge and use of this language are of religious significance. And even
those who love the language for another reason should be able to have the
entire thing in the language. Old English wikiprojects should be in Old
English. Simple as that.

Also, do not say that we are wasting everyone's time; I am sure if people like
odder truly did not want to do this, they would just put it at the bottom of
their todo lists. We are grateful for their helping us and doing so in a timely
manner.

I am sorry if you find this hostile, but I find what you propose an attack on
us and everything we believe in.

Good day.
