    Can somebody familiar with both the metric and the silly American system teach me the basics of the second? All I know is that 3 feet are 1 metre. I would like to know some other values, since I doubt the entire world will use the much simpler metric system anytime soon...

    there are dozens of converters online you can use for those systems - why not use one of those?
    Like special weapons from other Star Trek games? Wondering if they can be replicated in STO even a little bit? Check this out: https://forum.arcgames.com/startrekonline/discussion/1262277/a-mostly-comprehensive-guide-to-star-trek-videogame-special-weapons-and-their-sto-equivalents

    #LegalizeAwoo

    A normie goes "Oh, what's this?"
    An otaku goes "UwU, what's this?"
    A furry goes "OwO, what's this?"
    A werewolf goes "Awoo, what's this?"


    "It's nothing personal, I just don't feel like I've gotten to know a person until I've sniffed their crotch."
    "We said 'no' to Mr. Curiosity. We're not home. Curiosity is not welcome, it is not to be invited in. Curiosity...is bad. It gets you in trouble, it gets you killed, and more importantly...it makes you poor!"
    Passion and Serenity are one.
    I gain power by understanding both.
    In the chaos of their battle, I bring order.
    I am a shadow, darkness born from light.

    Because I don't wanna turn to a converter, I wanna learn how to convert some basic values myself...

    1 Inch = ~2.5 cm
    12 Inches = 1 Foot
    3 Feet = 1 Yard
    100 Yards = Football Field
    5280 Feet = Mile = 1.6 KM

    Actually, it isn't an American system, it's British. A few things have been modified over the last two centuries, but there is a reason its official name is the "Imperial System".

    Come to think of it, Amerika, Burma, and Liberia are the only nations in the world who refuse to use Metric.
    I completed a 2-man CSE, ISE, and KASE, Optionals included. And I soloed Winter Invasion.

    1 mile = 1.6093 kilometers
    1 yard = 0.9144 meter
    1 inch = 2.54 centimeters
    1 pound = 453.59 grams
    1 U.S. gallon liquid = 3.7854 liters
    1 U.S. gallon dry = 4.4049 liters

    Those are a few off the top of my head. While I just can't use the metric system practically since it isn't pounded into my head, it certainly is a whole lot better.

    We do. Imperial is more the official system, but we do still use metric. We are a member of the European Union after all.

    Bob and First, thanks a ton, you have helped me a lot.

    Suroo, since you're a member of the EU why don't you export your sweets? I have yet to find a supermarket here with British sweets!

    we do. We use both. If anything we use metric more now as that is what is taught in schools, so most kids these days dont know much about imperial.

    Older generations still use it and more established aspects like road signs that are not likely to be updated anytime soon still use imperial.

    Because we don't like Greece! (:D) Actually we do, but Greece does not seem to like us. Something about resenting the fact that we own Greece. Every time a war comes around, we have to come down there and save you. (:D)

    The Middle East particularly is going crazy for British sweets. For that matter, even Amerika (of all places in the world) has started buying British sweets. Why Greece does not have any, I can only suspect must be your local markets just don't buy them. (:rolleyes:)

    In all honesty though, I greatly enjoy Swiss or Belgian chocolates and cakes anyway. Of course, Russian chocolate is made of mud, but Swiss and Belgian chocolate is enough to make you never want to leave. In the words of my daughter, "Now I know what love taste like!" Where does she come up with these things? Goodness, I love her! (:D)

    Cute and hilarious reply. Also, can't you deposit (storm)troopers here permanently so we won't have that mandatory duty?

    no, he cannot; you want stormtroopers, you're about 70 years and one world war too late, not to mention asking the wrong country...you want germany, not england

    We prefer not to, for your sake. The lack of Stormtroopers makes you believe you own Greece, so it gives you that much needed feeling of independence. :D
