    It is not that we can not carry on, I just don't see why I and others are not allowed to speak in our home language.
    It's like saying Wales play England in rugby and they are playing in England and Wales have to sing their national anthem in English.

    But if the rule was "re-written" then it would not be breaking the rule.

    For example.

    Halo. Cimar a tha thu? - Hello. How are you?

    what do you think?
    That is exactly how the rule should be formatted.
    Not really as i still wouldnt know and the user could be making it up.
    If you are that paranoid, then you could easily check it with an online translator: http://www.translation-guide.com/fre...lsh&to=English

    I dont see the point, go bugger off to another forum which lets you express that language, a forum which you can only speak that language. :]

    The odd few want to change the rule rather than break it. Hence the thread.

    If you don't see the point of people talking in another British Language then why be so paranoid about it?

    Also, I do not see why I and other British citizens can not post on a British Forum in their national language, so therefore I shall not "bugger off".

    You dont see the point. But quite a few others do... Its not just about you. We're talking about catering for everyone in the UK
    and we've already talked about if the translation was found to be very inaccurate the poster would be warned ect. And it would only be in a select forum. Its like I don't understand coding, but its still there. I just ignore that forum.

    Be careful, I got acussed of sarcasm, rudeness and racism for posts like that from these people.

    If you want a forum that bad for languages then PM ---MAD---, and i will look forward to using my online translator to join in with your welsh conversations

    That has absolutely nothing to do with British Languages...
