It means that cdwrover has another obscure problem and still cannot be bothered to say ''Please''.

Surprised?

A fifth of the crowd of slaves took part (or contended)

p.s. Difficult to translate accurately without the context. Quintus could be a personal name. Could you supply some of the preceding and following text, in order to clarify?

Now say Thank You cd.

Nicely put, Gran.

Quick get bob and his defibrulator.

I suppose I'll have to settle for that, Gran. Would have loved to know the context, though, being a boring old Latin freak.

Mike if you google the phrase it comes up asmpartmof a teacher training course. Draw your own conclusions (God forbid)

Many slaves like Quintus. but in the Latin sentence it is said in passive voice so literally it would translate: Quintus is liked by many slaves.
