Hi,

I recently moved to Spain for a bit, and I've noticed something 'strange' on this site now.

My status (the text under my id, like 'Senior Stalemate Associate' etc) seems to say this now...

"Est?s usando este software de traducci?n de forma incorrecta. Por favor consulta el manual."

Which is spanish, and translates to 'You are using this translation software incorrectly. Please consult the manual'

I guess its trying to do something with my IP and decide I know Spanish , and there must be some problem somewhere.

I did change my location to 'Javea, Spain', but I changed it back to the UK and that didnt change it back to English, so I dont think its that.

Most other peoples text is still fine, but a few other users have the same Spanish as me, eg NuclearDuckie, Szieve, El Farmerino

Is there a hiccup somewhere?

This made me laugh- not your fault though. The spanish quote is from Portal 2. Other people have it too. Don't worry, I probably would've been confused too...

It's actually just a member "level" for the site. Just like "Community Contributor" or "someone told me I'd get 60 bucks if i posted on the forum" xD

Lol... yeah msleeper and her sense of humor! I became a frankenturret all of a sudden one day when my previous status was "Fucking loves cake"... Check out what I am now, Immediate Past President of the Being Alive Club!!! hahahaha.

Btw, Robdon, that part of Spain is great. We plan to go this summer right near that area, more up to the North, but also to Valencia. I was born and live in Granada.

Doh, fair enough... I've been had!

Funny I must have just gone to that level the same week I got to Spain!

@josepezdj: yeah, been here quite a bit in my childhood, so its nice to be here again now. I'm not used to seeing the sun, since I've lived in Cardiff/Wales for the past 3 years

I became an "Olympian/War Hero." That's a pretty bizarre sense of humor.
