    Annoys me too, i wish i could understand them sometimes. but i don't think that unable to unstand or even disliking should make others ... even a Minority suffer

    2: VIP forums are usually let to go about things in their own way but if there are any serious rules being broken then I presume they get closed? its up to the forum owner to keep it well moderated.

    I'm not going to quote post in this post, but this is mainly for jrh2002 and JackHB.


    If you actually took the time, to take in what I said in the very first post of this thread, then you would see that I' am asking for everyone to be able to post in all British Languages if they wish too.

    I did not ask for the rule to be scraped, just for the rule to be "Re-written" so that only British Languages can be used.

    It seems to me jrh2002 would have a problem with people communicating in other languages as you could not understand them and you do not want to be left out.

    @JackHb
    The Multilanguage board would cause to much hastle for the managment to add and monitor because then they would have to hire new moderators that are fluent in the languages being used, as I have suggested with the rule being re-written there is no need for a new board and what Garion and I have suggested would result in there being no need to hire new moderators.

    It is not a HUGE deal if you speak welsh or not on this forum, you have been posting your 4000 posts in English, i do not see why you and the others can't carry on?

    The rules state that only English may be spoken, even if there is a Welsh forum the minute someone speaks welsh they are banned without a rule change, surely its a pitfall trap

    Why change it, its working perfeclty fine its just a odd few who feel they should break the rule.

    I see your point. But if it was made a rule that you had to post an English translation next to whatever was said, would that be ok? It was brought up earlier in the thread.
    For example.

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

    what do you think?
