Is this site British????

[vergilite]

Iv noticed that most of the global moderaters on gbatemp are good old british people so are quite alot of supervisors etc.....
was this site founded in the U.K, USA its weird i just want to know
p.s i know how ranking works so don't say "just because the mods are british doesn't mean the site is" i know that NO FLAMING

It was founded by an italian Kivan. And I think we are/were hosted in France? (Costello?)

 

[da_head]

founded by an italian, being hosted in france (and a french admin costello). we also have a british admin (shaun) and a canadian admin (ace_gunman)

I guess you can classify it as French since the servers are in France next to Costello's pr0n collection. In reality we really to diverse of a community to be put into one country.

The site was founded by THREE Italians - I'd assume it was also hosted in Italy.

The site is currently being hosted in France, with the majority of staff coming from Europe.

The majority of the community are Americans.

So a mixture of the above really as there's no one way of defining the "nationality" of this site.

That's why it's a .net site.

Yeh dice (and other repliers) are right. Although the majority of staff are European, we're really an international site. We've always tried to make the site appeal to everyone worldwide, especially considering all the competitions we've done are open to anyone and everyone.

It doesn't matter whether it's a .net .us .co.uk .co.us .tv .com .co.nz .co.cz or any other of the 1000's I own many .net websites and a few .com and 1 or 2 .tv websites and I'm British.

The best research for finding this information out is going to who.is and typing the web address. It gives you information on the owner, server and where it's registered and hosted.

I know it doesn't matter whether it's .net or whatever but it would be more likely to be a British site if it was .co.uk.

Ca va bien! Et toi? (i took french 2

But yeah, this site doesnt really seem to have any sort of nationality, because if you look at all the flags under usernames, you'll see a whole different bunch of em.

We're multicultural, tell your friends. ENGLISH ONLY!

 

[Gaisuto]

There are a few American mods like me self. Not a whole lot but a few.
It's actually kinda cool how diverse the community here is. Have a few folks who live in the Land of the Rising Sun too. One of my favorite things about the 'Temp.

Maybe it's just me, but the English spoken here seems to have a bit of the British influence in it.
Probably just me
