Who were and are the Albanians and their DNA

I have come to understand the potential bias and political incentives behind much of the haplogroup and genetic arguing that goes on in these types of forums. This of course happens very commonly between Balkan nations like Serbia and Albania for obvious political reasons.

However, I don't understand what is going on here with Albanians having distrust between their haplogroups?

Can someone explain why Hawk thinks other Albanians would be biased and trying to over inflate non E-V13 haplogroups?

What would the incentive be? Or am I misunderstanding the argument entirely?

When you get an answer let me know :embarassed: ... Since I tried asking personally twice and no response. Like I'm trying to understand the endgame if what he is saying were to be true, and I can't think of any outcome.

He made his reasons pretty clear, actually. Even if they are unfounded.

He assumes project percentages are being manipulated since most peer review studies list E-V13 in Albanians at "35+%". Completely neglecting things like sampling bias, sampling size, where samples are collected etc. Even with this conspiracy, E-V13 is still the number one percentage-wise in both projects.

The most asinine reason He doesn't trust either Albanian DNA project, in his own words; "There is no high level E-V13 admin". Whether that's because he assumes there need be a high level shot caller since "most Albanians are E-V13", or because he is one of these people obsessed with their own haplogroup that he thinks people are so infantile to be able to comprehend facts because they don't share his haplogroup. Somehow there's a big conspiracy since most project admins are J2b or R1b.

He claims there should be a committee of these main 3, yet can care less whether other Albanians and their haplogroups get representation.

Personally, I don't think it matters what an admins haplogroup is. All they need be is honest, transparent and competent in what they're doing.

How much did you pay Gjergj to put your Y-DNA subclade in the blog post? :LOL:

All i can see from you is strawman only.

There's articles on all the haplogroups in Albanians. Not just your precious E-V13. You pathetic rat. So stop being a princess. Qeni bir qeni.

Try looking up the actual definition of strawman before throwing words around to sound smart. Mentally deficient moron.

Simple explanation: they didn't pay for the upload.

This happened with a couple other Albanians in L1029. They were added to the tree. They didn't pay, so they were removed. With exception of 1 that I paid for to keep on the tree. Their result is still publicly available in the project for those not on the tree.

On your other point, you failed to come to any resolution when I called you for his lies. You also didnt popular correcting him when he was he was saying he paid kits I PAID FOR, in an attempt to take kits back from Rrenjet you deemed "yours". And you knew full well.

I already made myself clear why all trust was lost lost tour project. Only a moron would have continued donating to the project when it's administration belittle its contributing members and allow people who openly lie to get away with such nonsense.

And it was brought to your attention numerous times about this admins antics. And you couldn't care less.
What are you blabbering about you inconsistent moron?

Kits I mentioned I have YSEQ records for, where I donated directly to the Albanian Bloodlines group or the Bytyci group there. We kept an Excel sheet for all the contributions too, for everyone, which other admins have access and can confirm as well if there is a need.
 
Nope, it's for the sake of balance.

Albanian DNA Project was originally and initially created by an E-V13 member. Any Albanian DNA Project not having an admin who belongs to the most frequent Y-DNA in the population is unnaceptable.
Two of the admins there actually belong to your cluster, Trim and Kuqezi (yes, he is still an active admin).

So, you have nothing to complain about as you're well represented lol

You're a moron yourself, and a liar. Before the thread was wiped in anthro(and you banned), a couple specific kit numbers you listed in your list of kits you claimed to have funded personally were ones that I paid for.

Trojet even admitted it to me in a personal message that a couple of those kits you listed in your response to Gjergj were in fact a Okshtun sample, and a surname I paid to test from Mirdita(don't want to put their name here). The ones I specifically requested and donated to the project for., among another 8 that may have been spread out.

As for your other listed kits I can't comment on as I have no knowledge/evidence for or against your financial contribution. I know what I paid for though.

When someone calls me a liar, I don't take it lightly. Kits I mentioned I could have mixed up perhaps one or two when we did that Dibra/Koplik round because Alban kept records, and he messed around with them. Here is a screenshot I took a while ago of all the kits from his document that we paid for on that round:

Take for example kit 20399 that I paid for. He removed it from our project. What do you think is the best action for him to take in this case??? I have simply asked them to refund us for those kits that they removed or place them back where they belong.
 
I only have six posts so can't seem to post images, but I just emailed it to you..
 
Oops, now I've reopened it. I neglected to tick the box to do so. :)

Thanks Jovialis, Albanians now are allowed to discuss their Dna 🧬. If someone goes berserk there is no need to shut down the thread. Penalties should be personal.

lol, what's going on here?

Now, i've seen some wild stuff, but albanians insulting each other over haplos is new to me...

Oh no, wait a sec, i now remembered about Fustan.

Yeah ok, nothing new i guess xD
 
Btw guys, i wanna test again for my dna, think those greeks of myheritage scammed me xD

I cannot find my email with the data anymore, my inbox is full of trash, it's more worth it to retest myself, so i wanted to use this occasion to ask you guys what site/tester you advice me and how to start understanding the genetic data they send me back.

It appears in years that i've been here i haven't understood too much about dna, not really bcs i can't grasp basic genetic notions, rather bcs i am a big time technology hater, even tho i'm a millenial, and i cannot seem to be able to find studies/papers that are updated and reliable on the net, i just hate technology, what can i say.

Yeasterday i learnd how a new windows shortcut on my laptop, i feel Edward Snowden now, just to give you an idea of how impeded i am, lol.

Any help/advice is highly appreciated.

God bless you all.
 
O shka i biri shkines, why you keep barking like a vile dog?

Why'd you call him a shka? Oh wait, is it bcs of the R1a? Like really? Thought MUH "WE AIN'T LIKE JUGOSLAVS FIGHTING OVER THE DUMBEST THINGS AND KILLING EACH OTHER OVER NONESENSE", where did that attitude go?
 
Nevermind i decided what i said was not so good
