I know this winboost site, and he is a resanable guy, I asked him to remove my stuff and he did.

first the russians
now the french?

the hell?

Ah the French…. We must remember that we cannot E-mail these people we can only send couriel to them because the term E-mail contaminates them with western culture.The most interesting aspect of this being that the term couriel was said to have been coined by a professor in Montréal Canada ...

so If the French are trying to achieve some type of purity why would they use a term coined in Canada, strange, very strange indeed.

Let's not turn this into another nation bashing exercise people. Remember it's individuals who do these things, not the entire nation they're a part of. They could just as easily be American or British or whatever.

What drugs are you on, Mr Roberts?

This is a peculiar comment because on one hand you use a title of respect and admiration, i.e. Mr. Then you accuse me of being on drugs. I really don’t know how to respond to your dichotomous riddle.

between, I am from Quebec Canada and french Canadian, so it's not a war againts Montreal hehehe!

I do not want a big fight debate here, I just wanted to let other skinners know they might have their skins on other website and if they did not wanted them there, they could contact them. We didn't tried to contact them yet and we don't know these websites, but we will contact them shortly.

Thanks Alexandrie for the tip off.
I got in touch with the owner of the last site (as it was the only one which I found any of my skins on I think)

Seems like maybe he just didn't know 'the rules'
His reply is here:

this company did a huge ad campaign in the US to get people to pronounce their name correctly... it's Rey-no not re-nault... so we all started speaking french for them to pronounce their name correctly and what's the first car they release after this campaign??? the FUEGO Spanish...
