Bitcoin Forum

Look at this shitter here. Why does he post everywhere in his 3rd world language and nobody cares?

Use the "Report to moderator" feature to report posts and users to moderation staff.

Does it really bother you all that much? Just put the user on ignore.

Of course they are rules here. Bitcointalk is a huge community which is hard to control. In my opinion we don't have enough moderators. Also, not everyone uses "Report to moderator" fuction, it's really helpful for forum's staff. I don't understand people who can't post in a proper section, what's hard to do it right?

Ok


What? So it is fine that everyone post in his native language in an english forum?

How about go to btc.africa or so?

No it's not alright, and in my experience mods do delete posts made in the wrong language.   I report them all the time.

No need to make a thread about this, just keep reporting these posts when you see them.   Glad to see someone cares enough to notice it and do something.   By the way, when I click on that link it says "no results found", so I think mods moved or deleted whatever that post was.

It's Indonesian, not a 3rd world language, but one of the most spoken language in the world, spoken by almost 200 million people. I think, since it is a quite new account, he didn't read the forum rules so well.
No need to be so aggressive towards him/her.

memiliki! :D
why not if chrome has embedded translator
or maybe one should implement on the fly translation of posts like at facebook

When people get mad about others languages, I inmediatly assume that the person only speaks english :D

Well there are language rules because this is a forum. Why not read the forum rules first before posting? Besides, if that person wants to post in their own language, there is a dedicated section for that.

everytime i reported something like this it got deleted immediately.
i guess if somebody doesn't learn he has to suffer consequences.
as far as I can judge the system works.

moderation works: i reported said user and pretty much all posts of him/her were deleted.
it seems that most people just dont care and do not report it.


@all people who go apeshit about this thread

fuck off to bitcoin.indonesia you shitters.

That's all irrelevant.  The main forum here is in English.  I wouldn't dream of going
to a French language forum and expect them to tolerate my posts in English.  That's almost
common sense, but that seems to be lacking here.

It doesn't matter if a person only speaks English.  You're expected to post in that language
here.  Not being able to write it correctly makes it harder for people who speak it well to
understand, and it's very frustrating.  If your command of English is limited, your range of
expression is limited, and if you can't express things well, your posts are going to be
garbage.  That's the logic here.
