english in chatrooms?? TuLiPz P: i find in some chatrooms (mostly bingo) that many chatters of eastern countries keep talking in their own languages, when i try to ask them to speak english please, they kinda get offensive and 'tell' me to chill, i personally find it VERY rude, and still try to be polite and kinda point them to the fact that this is in the wireclub chatsites 'rules' right??? or am i completely wrong here Aura: Gewoon Nederlands gaan praten, at some point they will get the message right? ofcourse it might be a little harder to get responses. But yeah, in the public rooms they should be talking in English. So no you're not wrong. But try not to let it bother you. Most of the time it's boring conversation you don't want to follow anyway. TuLiPz P: i suggested that indeed i should just blabber away in any language i speak, they told ME to chill out, and i KNOW i should not let it bother me, BUT it still does, was just curious what Wire could/can/will/would be able to do about it. as i don't want to be flagging them all the time, and get a bad name for flagger Aura: Yeah, once something gets on your nerves it's hard to ignore it. I'd advice you to befriend a mod. That way, anytime it gets too annoying you can ask the mod to visit the room. Requests to speak English just have more weight when they come from someone wearing the boots CoIin: . HotChick105 : Cards please AwesomePete : I need a win HotChick84 : This is my last game SomeDudeFromIndia : Can someone spare some cards? ChenShuiBian : 放我出去 AlabamaJoe : English only please MichaeI: Hey, Guys. If this is going on while a mod isn't available in the room, please chat flag it so it can be reviewed as soon as possible. TuLiPz P: i did, and they laffed at me, and i dont wanna be a flagging monster, so i can be flagged for flagging, ogh micheal, and what to do about this racist thingie of today??? lol TuLiPz P: he is still ranting in pm to me, and also kinda apologised in room, but said the 'bad ones deserved it' ummm he called you womanizer in pm to me, hahahaha, and NOW he's mad at me for telling him to let GO. would i never be any good as moderators, would have booted the hell outta him TuLiPz P: you MUST have indeed, wow, but sometimes it would be good to see people like that maroon/moron be told to behave, cos he was really rantting on and on and on and spoiling chat and bingo for many, and yes i know we have choice to block, but that takes away all the fun, lollll xox G xox: What, do you think they are talking about you So what if a few non English words are typed. Its not the end of the Wire World.Far toooooo many rules here these days that everyone wants enforced, its suffocating this place to death. TuLiPz P: am NOT nagging about just a ' few words' here and there, and i already got my answers from the wire mods, tyvm, if i do the same, i be flagged too and with good reason, i am not here to 'enforce'' any rules, i was merely asking the mods, and i got a satisfying answer, so i consider this discussion closed xox G xox: Maybe you should have just asked a Mod directly in the first place instead of posting it as a topic in open forum, open forum as we all know is a place to discuss and or debate the topic at hand If you dont wish further discussion delete the thread or unfollow. Other members might wish to discuss or debate this topic further.......just saying. Aura: I've seen that before. Is calling a guy a womanizer the male version of slut-shaming these days? What's up with that? TuLiPz P: all i said was it was just a question and i got sufficient answer by the mods who my question was directed to in the first place, no big deal for me, and i can decide for myself if i want to delete or unfollow. geesh talk about drama, lol and coffee monster yeah i think so, but even that is no big deal for me.i know who i am and what i stand for, so all is good and orange, saint michael, borrow me your halo? i need it bad, please??? lol | Off Topic Chat Room Similar Conversations |
