"what did you expect your the theif !"
messages like this make me wonder is it correct to call someone a thief cos they take your naq from you. a bit too insulting i believe.

Well , in principle it is correct.
You STEAL their naq, so you are a thief.
But I prefer calling it "renting without repaying"

Blatantly someone without an education in the first place as his spelling and grammar went wayward. I wouldn't call taking naquadah thievery, more so, foraging.

Perhaps,, but I am willing to bet my bottom dollar that this individual is from a country where English is the first spoken language.

Naq taken on an attack is 'plundered' spoils from winning the fight, not theft IMO
As for the noobish PM, mass him
