This is kinda like the round-robin so please feel free to add: You know you are a Madina Board addict when... - you have more posts than the administrators. - you are mistaken for a moderator and are asked questions. - you know all the Quran words - you celebrate the day your status changes from madina geek to madina mujahid. - you hit re-load every 5 minutes for hours to see all the new messages posted. - you email sr huma when the site goes down for 5 minutes. -...your name is arsalan :P (Ok i just couldn't resist, this is for that albanian diss :p) |

I am from UK. Leeds lass. Yep, yorkshire accent comes with it. You know when you are an addict when you start telling your friends and family about the things people have been posting, and talking about the posters as though you have known them since you were a toddler. (I experienced this from another message board - I have yet to become addicted to this one. In time....) |

Asalaamu aleikoum, Safiyah: I've only been to Hyde Park a few times. I don't live in London any more so it's a bit tricky. As far as I remember, a few brothers used to go there regularly: Br. Abur-Rahim Green, Br. Abu Sufiyan, et al. but I don't think that there is an official rotation to it. Just whoever can make it makes it. Tree: Yep, Bristol is SO cool. Needs more Muslims though. Or at least, the Muslims there need to be more organised. |

Assalamu alaikum, Mirza, I think you misunderstood me brother. I was just saying that all Muslims need to love their brothers and sisters fee sabeelillah, not just the Madina Board addicts. I never, in my wildest thoughts, meant to insult you!!! Anyway, I apologize for it if it came out that way. I think I need to be more careful how I word my sentences. This is strike 2! |

slm arshad: sure there are many diff english accents there is posh english which is spoken mostly by those living in london centre/west , the cocknies(my lot) are the east londoners the people out of london are classed by where they come from -if u come from necastle -you will probably have a newcastle accent.. -if from liverpool-u will prabably have a liverpudlain's accent the scotish speak scotish as thier language and they speak english with a certain accent the same with the Irish... there is a lot then you can have the racial accents if u r African -you might have a certain accent(even divisions within that) if u r Asian - will might have a ceratin accent and so on..... |

Yes fari, I do have a Yorkshire accent, for real! However, it is not too strong. It gets worse when I am speaking with those who have a Yorkshire accent. bhaloo, there are soo many different accents here in England. The most commonly known one is the cockney accent, but only those from the south speak it (esp London). There is a VAST difference in the accents from North and South. The north of England has more farmland than the south and so the accent in the north derives from farmers. If you could hear some of the accents! People from newcastle have a Geordie accent, which I cannot immitate at all. The accents most Britts make fun of is the Brummy accent (those from Birmingham). They lengthen some of the words, and can sound quite thick (but they are not, so please do not take offence anyone from Birmingham). My preference is the cockney accent. My favourite accent in the world is the Irish accent. It is so soothing. |

Salam, ICQ, began as a 3 person company based in Israel. The company's name was Mirabilis and their product was an instant messaging program, called ICQ (I Seek You). At one point, ICQ had MORE registered ACTIVE users than AOL(!). AOL then Paid something More than $200,000,000 to buy ICQ. ICQ's software, Servers, Hard Drives, etc etc are all BASED IN ISRAEL. So, Whenever you're filling out your private info on ICQ...just remember who's database you're helping to build. :-O Shalom... er, Just kiddin' Salam. Himy. http://LastPage.HiMY.org |

I hate when that happens to me! Especially when something is modified which was posted like 3 months ago and so you have no idea what the original post said. I've seen in other boards that whenever a post is modified, it automatically puts in another line at the end of the message saying "This post was edited by so-and-so on 01/01/01 at 00:59:59" or something. But that still wouldn't tell you *what* was changed! |
