Re: Slogans for TheHavenNet.
You can argue that you mean it's english as in the language it is written in. If you were to say the forums are based in a server in England then I think you would be correct (not sure on that one?), and if you were to say the community is english you would of course be wrong as the community is international.
However can I point out that .uk doesn't only mean england...

Re: Slogans for TheHavenNet.
You know, after a month or two of watching you all trying to come up with a slogan for the Haven Net, Ive decided ... does it really need a slogan? What's wrong with 'Games, Computers, Community'? Call me a spoilsport, but I think its all a bit mince to be honest.

Re: Slogans for TheHavenNet.
Like I said, the server for the forum is english as it is based in england I believe, the game server is based in Frankfurt, Germany, making it German, and the community is international.
Those seperations can be made, however to avoid upset the THN community should be marked as international. After all, the servers have to originate from one place don't they? You can't have an international server (unless the server travels at above warp 10 in which case it exists everywhere in the universe infinitely
).
On further thought, if the forum server is based in england and the game server is based in germany, then the servers are international.
I rest my case.

Re: Slogans for TheHavenNet.
THN is an international community. Where it's hosted, or what the address happens to end in is irrelevant to that.
What matters is the people taking part in THN, and that's an international group.

Correct. Hence why the 'language' (I use the term loosely because 1337speak is hardly civilised communication... not pointing any fingers *cough*Gopha*cough*) of THN should be changed to Latin. Or grunting.
(Note that this is intentionally humourous, don't take offense)

Yup they are at the moment - although they get moved occasionaly not that this affects their usage in any way. HavenHosting servers are in frankfurt and the uk as well so its a bit of a mix as to where the forums are coming from at any one time.
