Going to translate what I said to the new member.

Not until now, no.

Such a simple thing, why is it so hard?

Oh well. Good luck with whatever you choose to do now.

welcome to the guild buddy
hope you enjoy yourself here, glad to have you aboard.

Tim

edit: ^^ an emotional welcome it seems.
most emotional I can muster is a raised eyebrow

wow dom wut a way 2 freak out on jon...

dude relax bro =(

he was only greeting him

dont hate me lol

i dont see this as being an issue at all. i mean it was one little sentence meant to make the new member feel at home. who are you to enforce this rule? sure i could understand if they had a 2 page conversation in some foreign language, but come on dom. who cares. just scroll past it and read the next post.

I miss slashing and slashing with you, my LS mentor! I hope all is well with you.

BTW - I might have to go to Salina again soon. I'll probably stay in KC at the Hyatt Airport.

stop in lawrence and we'll go drink a few!

salina? come on vacation leave on probation. has and incredible reputation for highway drug busts (2 major highways intersect there)

KHP has their training facility there. Remember, they are one of my clients. It sucks that the nearest airport and decent hotels are in KC. I dread that 3 hour drive. It's 3 hours instead of the usual 4 because KHP escorts me!

I've seen threads, entire forums, IRC chats, and more turn into a mix of languages that only one or two people understand. Can YOU translate these:









I can't. Further, even assuming I knew what languages they are, I can't access translation sites from work.

The guild thread is about guild chat, and anything that can't be read by the guild as a whole should go via PM. Seeing as the only language universal to the guild is English, seems that'd be the best language to stick with, no?

I can pull more examples if I wanted to go back more than a few pages, or even go back to the old (locked) guild thread.

Again, "who are you"? I'm a guild member who likes to know what's going on with the guild's LS team, not be unable to read shit posted in our LS thread.

And I enforced nothing. Nonni left. HIS choice. Tell me I overreact, but I did nothing but make a request, then have somebody respond to me in gibberish.

Always starts with the occasional post, then goes to two or three or ten pages of intermixed languages. Better to stop it before it becomes a big thing.

Most multi-lingual boards with English as the universal, people, if they speak in different language, add the translation underneath, in parentheses, so that nothing is "hidden" and everyone understands the meaning of the post. Way it should be. Do that, and then it's a "who cares". Full posts in specialized languages? ...
