If im not mistaken, "G's" are on the white team, unless your using "Stormcrow", which would be fine since thats what everyone calls you.
Just thought I should point that out being the smart-ass that I am...

/me gets long ruler out to thwack invictusa over the knuckles with a stern word about third declension case endings!
Olim... erat magister linguae Latinae :)
Ut dixisti "vexaverunt", dico: vexo quod dicitis "Immortals", certe "Immortalis"?
"Suboles", "Nus" and "erevum"... aren't Latin at all - are you sure these aren't typographic errors, especially since "numguam" is definitely a typo of "numquam" (with a "q") later on?
Having said this, I love people who use Latin even with errors... it's a great language and needs love and nurture, and people who use it get huge thumbs up from me.
And, invictusa, even though I think there are a few typos in there, the sentiment is great.
If you want to put it down in English I'd be happy to give you the proper Latin translation?

Its actually a lyric from a song. It is actually funny how many times from different places on the net people have asked it to be translated only for it to be scrutinized by the translator.

lol kk.
Well it's definitely nearly-Latin, either way.
Some of the words just aren't, though, and both "immortals" and "numguam" are definitely typos of "immortalis" and "numquam".

You're right. It would make more sense if it began with "Lorem Ipsum"
