Chus: Only 2 more, you and Markos are recent members, most surely 2 more are not frequent posters or already left the Forum, Prog Archives has 3 years and you have four months or less.

this is silly, guess what Chile, Argentina, and Brazil basically represent the southern half of South America, I think people from Uraguay know they are would be part of this category. why is it so bad to have "other south american"? should I have made the category Colombia, Peru, Venezuela and Bolvia would you feel better?
 
 
anyway, nuff said, it was not done to disgrace anyone only to try to show a territorial lay out of members. forgive if I offended anyone. my real interest was the Asian population and distribution and basically no one voted.

It started almost as a joke and then turned in some national pride I admit it.
 
But in Prog fans, Perú represents a lot, the biggest Latin American Prog community is La Lata, near 90% are Peruvians or Argentineans.
 
But don't worry despite you're right I am what I am.

Very good... now my country is called... what???

Colombia is not Peru, Ecuador is not Peru, Bolivia is not Colombia, Paraguay is not Argentina.... better to have three "main" parts (let's say: colombia, argentina, brazil and venezuela, well, 4 that is) than asking for ONE More... why not then every south american country, including the Guyana, Guayana and Surinam?

No T, I believe all South America should be represented as a whole nation or individually being that there's no space.

We are divided enough as a region between Pro Chavists and andi Chavists, Chile Perú and Ecuador still have difficut relations, Colombia and Venezuela also, Chile and Argentina idem.

But as I said it started as a joke but some countries are constantly ignored, being Perú one of them.

What I said, not just one more country.... every country. Man, who would have thought Ecuador would have one representative? But OK, it started as a joke. Now, let's have somebody do this poll with all 270+ countries represented! (Now whoever does that, he's PROG for sure)...Big smile

No, whoever does it is a magitian, because the system only allows 20 options LOL
 
It's still a joke but in the deep it's hard to feel as a second class country.
