Really? I have lived in many countries and speak English and German fluently... I have only ever seen it used in English speaking countries. I know it comes from Latin (I mean duh), but the use is practically non existent in Germany and many other western and eastern European countries I've lived in.

Maybe people in NRW just stopped writing letters.
German wikipedia:
"Das Anhängsel PS: stammt aus der Zeit der Briefe, als man alles von Hand schrieb. Es hatte den Vorteil, dass durch das Vergessen eines wichtigen Teiles nicht alles nochmals geschrieben werden musste, sondern man es einfach anhängen konnte. In der Zeit der E-Mail-Kommunikation wird es jedoch hauptsächlich dafür verwendet, um Dinge anzuhängen, die nichts direkt mit dem eigentlichen Thema zu tun haben."
= 'The appendix PS: has its origin in the era of letters, when everything had to be written by hand...'
I don't think English shows were that popular here back then. ;p

People use "lol" instead of a full stop at the end of a sentence too but you wouldn't agree it's good practice. Southern germany still uses "P.S.:", just not for talking and I don't know how often you get letters or actual e-mails, not just instant messages.

No, it's the opposite: If anything it's becoming less common because of the decline of handwritten letters. The postscriptum and its abbreviation PS were used in Germany since at least the 18th century (most probably for even longer but the first defnitive occurences I can think of off the top of my head are the early epistolary novels around then).
Have you been in Germany when letters were already commonly written with computers?
Or maybe it's just the infamous NRW school system ;-P

Comment has been collapsed.

Comment has been collapsed.
I do! That's the point, i don't like to play games without her anymore. And she loves Tera so much that she leveled without me. And therefore, i'm too lazy to play on my own now. And she's too busy with her new friends to even talk to me ingame...

She's level 29. She got there in 7 days. While playing from 0-24. I played about 7 days as well but maybe 5-7 hours total. And i'm level 22. And i can still beat her in duels. I'm support class, she's dps :P

I usually always go for the DPS, but since i love my fiancee a lot and i did not want anyone else to play with her but me, i had to make us good combo so we could "solo" the game. I managed to make a great combo but she also decided to go ahead of me XD

Break down crying. If she comes to comfort you she still cares, if she doesn't.... well its kinda too late. Also, don't go too far with the tears you don't want to lose your manliness in this process.

Someone told me that girls don't play core games, especially mmos. And if they do - you should check what's beneath the skirt, just in case. Guess that someone was wrong :D
Comment has been collapsed.
Oh i know what my girl has under her skirts. Panties. Very nice ones. :P
She ain't fan of skirts though, she usually walks around house just in panties (and shirt!) or with some normal jeans / pants. No skirts.
Oh and btw, my fiancee is hardcore gamer. She loves L4D2, Mafia series, Saints Row series, GTA series, a lot of different MMO's (Vindictus, MAbinogi, WoW, PWI, GW2... Tera... -.- ) and so on and on :P

OMG OMG OMG she just turned the game off! She said she wants to be with me! oh my god! WHAT SHOULD I DO?!!? D: I think she just found out she has cancer or something T_T
P.s. cancer thing was a joke. You may laugh!

... To Tera.
Ever since I told her that Tera is going F2P, she's playing it non-stop. In over a week she barely even speaks to me!
She was very, VERY sick for quite a long time so yesterday she went to doctor. When she came home she said that doc said she's healed, and she told me that she feels better.
Today, when i got home from school, she told me that she was home all day and that she was playing Tera. Tomorrow she'll stay home as well, playing Tera. I've lost her... i have... :(
Should have kept my mouth shut. She'd think that it's still Pay to play and therefore we'd still be one very, very happy couple. Oh gosh.. Tera.... No me gusta you anymore.
P.S. Sorry to everyone who thought that this is one very sad, life breaking story D: I can tell you how she dumped me twice, that's very sad! I got her back both times though, and now we're engaged o-o
P.P.S one Massive detail that i didn't mention.. Until now. We are from two different countries. She's from Czech and i'm from Croatia. We need to live seperated for about 3 more years because of collage. Don't worry, we met in real life. We spend each summer and winter vacation together.
P.P.P.S. ( ? ) gosh you really love my topic. Bear in mind that this was mainly a topic to make people laugh and giggle and what not!
P.p.p.p.s. English ain't my native language.
6xP, 1xS - I got her GW2 so she can play it with me. She still chooses Tera over it O_O But she does talk to me much more often now so that's a bonus :P
