It's actually quite similar to "Yes, Sir!". It's an acknowledgement.

Sometimes I think them Germans are taught that they won the second World War and are now rulers of the world :tard: .

WTF? If somebody'd be saying that in real life, he'd be so retarded he wouldn't even know about WWII...and actually, Germans probably know more about the war than anybody else. I mean, every few years studies show that the Americans still think the Second World War started with Pearl Harbor. In one study most of them didn't even know to whom they were allied against the Nazis! People still don't get that it's been more than 60 years since the war – the Germans are nothing like the Nazis. (In fact, we have laws against racism and national socialism...while there's nothing like that in the US...not to mention the KKK...yet the Americans are the ones always calling us the Nazis...)
@ImmoMan: Nearly correct - just "Unsinn" is male and it's
auf Niederländisch...
@Infraid: "Achtung" is the correct spelling...it means "Attention". "Warning" would be "Warnung".
The funny thing is that most foreigners, especially the english speaking ones, only know German from WWII movies...so they know words like "Achtung", "Jawohl", "Panzer" or "Blitzkrieg", but almost no normal German words...:lol:
Oh, and one more thing: There are hundreds of thousand of Germans speaking proper english...it's just that almost none of them are active in gaming communities, and the ones playing ego shooters aren't the smartest ones either...
