ObscureAlternativesfor gods sake you two give it a rest

nothing will put peeps off geting involved in the language than this kind of pointless argument


This Goky and others, have a myth about a phantom guy named Brian Young, like the boogy-man that creeps around every forum, throws big words at them and then hides! By all evidence, I am the lucky sod to be named him this time around. What an honor! Skilled linguists and they cant sort out who is who!

It is really kind of funny and sad.

Brian Young is not a phantom. He went off the radar after some unpleasant exchanges a while ago but has recently resurfaced. His supporters are (almost?) entirely among those opposed to Kemmyn, for some reason.

I think the unpleasant exchanges have come from your camp initially to everyone other than yourselves, you have this backwards. The perspective is in reverse here. The trouble causers are pointing fingers at the targets as to blame. Why is this Young guy to blame for anything? Isn't you that are all together causing problems? I thought it was Evertype, Marhak, Eddie and a few others? But now we have another name?

I hope the Commissioner who looks upon these posts from all of you lot will follow the sequence of exchanges. I would start deleting your posts if possible before it ruins your cause. You mention someone's name on here that from my observation has never been on here but you forget or overlook your own list of names. Odd.

Morvran, Morvyl, Flammnew, and we cant forget Goky. Quite an ensemble of characters bent on destroying the revival for all.

No wonder there is so much anti-Kemmyn sentiment going on!You cant convience me, let's hope your lies can distract the Commission (but not likely...)

Whoa, JT - Morvyl's one of the good guys (yeah, we have our own slant on things).

I hope s/he does, then he will get a clear picture of the two-way (because it is two way) arguments, the calm discussions that have taken place, the politeness which *usually* abounds! When people don't react when provoked things go well here, it is the trolls who cause problems by baiting the people they know will react.

All this discussion is pretty pointless anyway: the process is currently out of our hands and all we can do is wait for September and the decision of the commission. Hopefully come September there will be dancing in the streets, users of all systems will conga in harmony through Truro and all the old scores will be laid aside in a spirit of unity and brotherly and sisterly love for the language. Sadly, in the words of the Kaiser Chiefs (a popular beat combo for the oldies out there), "I predict a riot".

In the meantime let's stay polite, not slag off other forms, not react when provoked, and just get on with using and promoting Cornish whatever form we use.

All of this name-calling and personal attacks by the people that use the Kemmyn form will really pile high by September. Then we will see what effect this behavior has on our precious language. Those who have been harassing others will see the light and karma will come swiftly.

The Commission may even just drop the idea entirely after witnessing this forum and the acidic words and behavior of people like Goky, Branvras and Morvran. We know who they are more or less, Reeves, Bailey and Saunders, well known names in the movement. Even I know them and I am new to this whole revival! I almost want to take up learning some language like Shirpa or some exotic islander tongue instead of Cornish but I am Cornish and live in Cornwall.

If the commission are weak enough to consider dropping the whole thing thanks to the comments of two or three people FROM EACH SIDE then I demand a refund on what they've been paid. They aren't there to be popular, they are there to make the right decision on behalf of the future of the Cornish language.

Good luck with the Sherpa. icon_lol
