Engrish by Epox

On my i/o plate it reads these:

Caution:
Prevent to be hurt by the sharp I/O shield, please MUST wear glove before you want to install the shield into you chassis.

Are you making fun of the language difference?
Perhaps you should try learning Chinese first?

I find your humor offensive

Then you'll certainly be offended by this site.

Seriously, though, surreal: that manual was not written in Chinese, it was written in what purported to be English. I would hope that you wouldn't write a manual in Chinese if you had such poor command of the language.

I tried to take a picture to send into engrish, but since it is on plastic comes out funny with flash, and blury w/o flash in this light

I don't think that making fun of someones accent like the title states is funny. I think it's rude.
That said I doubt I'll ever write any manuals Especially one on manners

...and to judge from this post by iNeb, he didn't find it so easy to understand, either, or he wouldn't have cut himself.

I think i'm going to sue.


Also, that was from the case, not the epox mobo. No warning on the case. So i am going to sue Chieftek

Yeah, but the mobo warned you to wear gloves... if you could read it.

I've given up reading manuals for computer parts. If it isn't etched on the PCB, then it's not important!
That said, I normally double check the USB wiring just to be safe - and any jumpers that I can't immediatley figure out - but that doesn't happen.
