Minimum English Requirement

This being the English forum and all, I suggest a requirement for coherent and legible English, so that it makes it easier on fellow forum posters to debate with, and on the devs to know what exactly they are to implement. Not intended to be racist, Just more understandable and therefore better for everyone involved.

perma bans for people speaking like cavemen should be handed out.

I’d agree if only to save myself and the devs a stroke from trying to make sense of some of these posts.

I’d ban people for using “your” when they mean “you’re”, and “literally” when they mean “figuratively”. Even 50/50 Russian/English mix sounds better to me than “Your leaving?”.

We’re talking about broken English, not using other languages. Or are you implying that Chinese language is just very broken English? Interesting…

no, look. Racist guy flagged my message and now is hidden. :rofl:

I’m not sure you know what the term “race” means.

Heh? Who said anything about “perfect English”? So long as you make sense, you’re alright. Mine certainly isn’t perfect, but people usually understand what I’m trying to say. We’re talking about those:

who them with words be more no good. Demand nerf for to in the plein can go in the down for to the side when tenk

ok, I don’t understand him too, but maybe he want to say something and as there is no other lenguage forums than English, he must use google translate (we all know, sometimes is worse than use your own English)

This is not an actual quote, but I’m pretty sure google translate wouldn’t translate “plane” as “plein” and “tank” as “tenk”.
“Communication” implies reception of information - you send some information my way, I receive it, process it, and (optionally) reply to you.

– What’s up, man?
– All good, you?
– Aight. Bored.

This is an example of communication. Notice it’s not perfect English, but it still does it’s job.

– for to the in the go when no break for the tenks in

Is not communication. It’s noise. It’s normal to ask for the noise to be filtered out. Has nothing to do with race, age, height, sex, income or anything else.
