I know the story, read the thread, the Hague, etc. But there is no such expression as "I go on the roof" in German.

That just makes it even more awesome.

Huh, I'd have to read the thread again, maybe that wasn't exactly what he said. But then I don't want to be a spoil fun. I guess it's become something like that (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8gpjk_MaCGM) deadly joke from Monty Python's Flying Circus by now.

"I GO ON THE ROOF U SAYIN GERMAN."

That kid had mental problems.

Oh well, I thought he might have been going for "jemanden auf's Dach steigen" which is somewhat similar but it doesn't fit the context. Guess he was actually going on the roof then.

But the rest of his post isn't crazy, it's just poorly written, as though he's still learning English. Did we ever find out what country he's posting from? I want to get to the bottom of this!

Pretending he's just internationally challenged, "I go on roof" sounds like a poorly-translated saying like, "I'm shouting from the rooftops" about a lot of gripes, 'cause these things are REALLY REALLY important to him, and he sees Sparhawk's merely talking about language folders when he should be griping about the bow and light gem, too.

Naw. He's a budding megalomaniac.

It was probably (http://www.dict.cc/deutsch-englisch/an+die+Decke+gehen.html) "an die Decke gehen". Then again, his posts were so batshit loco, he could've really meant anything.

Yeah, but that's a good explanation for this particularly weird part.

I think maybe the "I go on the roof" part he is talking about the vine arrows or climbing gloves and he's possibly mocking the climbing gloves. But what purpose adding the "u saying german" part adds to this only his twisted mind could possibly know.
