Foreign languages in HxHD

[GommeInc]

There is a reason to ban it, as the rules in place aren't enforced as no staff take the time or effort to translate it to find out its being rude etc.

Then enforce the rules that are there, making a new rule won't do much, other than cause disputes when a user who is being innocent is wrongly accused of being foreign

You can't expect staff to translate hundreds of lines of text just to see if people are being rude

When you could just ban foreign languages so not giving people the opportunity to be rude in it and people wishing to converse in a foreign language can use Whisper so the innocent people can still avoid being told off, where as the people intentionally breaking the rule will receive punishment.

Not entirely sure how you know exactly what they're saying, and if they were/are being rude, you just tell whoever's in the desk. It's not as hard as it sounds :/

Ok you spend your day in HxHD translating everything people say in a foreign language and highlight staff on the matter

Or do the most logical thing and ban it when its never necessary to use a foreign language in HxHD anyways...

Why translate when you probably do not need to know? It's conversation, people who are english or from england or an english speaking country would sooner understand english than another language. It's like listening to people speaking english to each other, you probably are not that interested in what they have to say unless you're that nosey. I'm just saying with the current rules in place, you could just extend into them to include foreign languages where if it's spammed, which I assume it is and was if you were being shouted at in a foreign language, and if someone objects and says it's rude, then it breaks the rudeness rules. It's quite simple, work with what you've got, not bring another equation in with the same numbers plus some new ones just jumbled up differently.

No-one has a proper conversation in a foreign language...... thats the whole point of this rule being pointless

Everyone who speaks in a foreign language in the help desk has spoke english fully and is only using that language as a means of being rude to avoid a ban/warn....
