Everywhere I go on this site, I always see an argument with Albanians and Serbs or whatever. And I notice a lot of members here are from the Balkans. What's the appeal here? Why is this site attracting so many of you guys? Not that I have anything against you guys, but what led so many Balkaners to register here? Might as well just change the slogan to "An Albanian cultural community".

Why this bothers you? ..i see serbians and other slavs that are much more than albanians dont disturb you...am least you are not europian and this is 1 European Cultural Comunity

in the beginning you're talking about balkanizes but in the end you say apricity should be called an albanian community,which leads me to think you have a beef with alboz,do you want to enforce your beef to compensate for you not looking slavic so you try to behave like a bad slav
is that it?

No that is not true. Your thing should be that you read and are interested mainly with what Albanians other Balkans have to say (and we have to say a lot), so you go to the wrong sections. Stop reading us as I never read you, well apart from the thread that you had some identity crisis. By the way, did you solve it?

so, people love to read us as they can learn, you can learn too.

Off-Whites (''Peripherals'') tend to dominate anthropology forums because of insecurity issues regarding their status in Europe.

Our status will be solved on forums ? OK

It won't, but some think by spamming anthro boards showing how ''European'' you are that it will change the fact that most Westerners view the Balkans as third world.

So that is how Westerners view us? Too bad

What about you why do you come on this forum as it seem you have your status solved.

I barely post here. Just drop by every now and then.

Anyhow, there are not many Dutch members here. Most of us are fairly secure of our racial status and don't need anthro board for confirmation like Balkan people.

Well I do not think that Balkan people come here for that. I come because it is a pleasant forum, many interesting members, you can read interesting things and have fun here. So I think you have misunderstood it. Only cuz some Albanian or other Balkanites are posting at the anthropology section it does not mean that we have any insecurities. That is what that section is for, right?
