    You're not doing it since you have only 37 posts abaft.

    Дедовщина is a reference to the hazing of conscripts by their COs (their "дедушки" -- "grandfathers") in the Russian army. I think his point was that it should be an egalitarian system on this board and "senior" post counts shouldn't convey any extra authority. I disagree to some extent, but why are we even really keeping this active? Been there, done that...
    Заранее благодарю всех за исправление ошибок в моём русском.

    Interesting usage, Rtyom! Pretty odd, actually... Btw - what is "abaft" in Russian?
    P.S. - Исправление ошибок в моих текстах на русском всегда приветствуется

    More importantly, what is "abaft" in English?

    At your numerous desires aloft:

    In English: "at the stern"
    in Russian: "на корме"

    Glad you ask ! Take it from a sailor: "abaft" = towards the stern from, as in "the mainmast is abaft the foremast," meaning the mainmast is behind the foremast. "Aloft", on the other hand, means up in the rigging, on sailing ships, or up working on antennas and suchlike on modern naval vessels.
