Are posts in languages other than English allowed ?
Just curious there's a post in Hebrew in the trade section. I thought there was a rule against it but I don't see it anymore.

Why would posts have to be just in English.

Not illiterate, more punctuation challenged than anything.
WalMart is having a sale on commas, you should slip over the border and stock up.

I was impressed.

It was a heady mix of racism and clever use of language.

Nah, pick something else.

"Clever" is beneath him, unless...
















Clocker, are you slumming again.

You would not be " snitching?"

There is only one other "foreign" language allowed here and that's Dutch naturally,... and then only to keep an eye on the current price of Amnesia HazeTulips. :noes:

What?

Green?

The color of money?

No, wait - that's not right, anymore.

They're paying me long green to sit onna bench?

Maybe that's it. :huh:

Anyway, it took you pretty damned long to notice.

Not sure.

Remnant swag from the hiring process, perhaps; I can't say I even dug to the bottom of the bag after the banquet...

That was the original idea hence the green colour --> :sick:

We do have a few that don't seem to get the message..they tend to think it to be an honour or something ridiculous and hang on for a while..,:blink:

Of course it is; they're not blue any more.

What kind of sad case would pass up the opportunity of being known as an ex- FST Staffer evermore? I bet it would unlock a few doors in the sharing world.

I don't think discrimination against other languages is a good idea ..

It's not really discrimination, it's common sense. Wether one likes it or not the current lingua franca is english. In fifty year's time we'll probably all post in mandarin anyway.

Fair point.

Mods, learn every language in the World so that you can ensure people don't break the forum rules.

My friends tell me I use the interweb so much that I'm already talking webbish.

Or was it wubbish? Something like that anyway. :mellow:
