Since SG is now Global community....

あなたはへんたいです。

What's your point?

Oh I see now. Didn't see this thread http://www.steamgifts.com/forum/PmzwH/steamgifts-is-a-global-community
But does that mean gibberish talk is allowed?

If you don't have any problems writing in English then I don't see why you shouldn't write only in English.

While I do not support the method MeHoW is using to get this issue addressed. I do find it very weird that SG is using the "we are a global community, therefore we are..." approach on the topic of language. An international/global community must have a single global language every member is able to speak and understand. This is not because of racism or anything, but because when such a large community with people from all over the world come together it will create total chaos if everyone will start speaking their own language, turning this place into a second tower of Babylon. Right now everything is fine, because the majority speaks English, but the size of said group continues to decrease with each new member we gain and as long as this rule is in effect. In the end this will only cause problems and frustrations amongst users and alienation between members, just like the tower of Babylon.

So, because you can't harass non-English speaking members, you're going to exaggerate my thread and pretend to have some real message here? Either all of you couldn't comprehend the point or have considerable issue with people speaking a different language than you. Either way, the solution is rather simple: deal with it. It's not funny when people try to launch a new hypothetical apocalypse scenario involving the SteamGifts community because of a new policy to curve the amount of abuse.

The site isn't going to burst at the seams with every single person speaking a different language. That wasn't the point of that thread. It's about decreasing the amount of abuse volleyed at non-English speaking members, not to encourage each member to speak five different languages in a single comment. Comprehension would blow your mind.

Well, this thread is pretty dumb.

Speak whatever language you want, be know that you will only be understood by other people that speak that language. Which is why most people on here speak English. There's no need to enforce that policy, because they only people who don't speak English regularly are the ones who can't speak English at all. The people who run the site apparently don't discriminate based on linguistic ability, which I see as a good thing.

There are already rules against spamming, but if you think you can communicate with people in your 'gibberish' language MeHoW, I say go for it.

Well I for one is new to SteamGifts but reading from Lokonopa's post about the abuse that went on before this new policy was implemented really makes me think twice about joining this community. I know not "everyone" is racist(which is what it really is) but to even know that people make fun of others because of their lack of English understanding does not give you the right to make fun of him/her.

Ну я, например, является новым для SteamGifts но чтение из почтовых Lokonopa о злоупотреблении, что происходило до этой новой политики была реализована действительно заставляет меня думать дважды о присоединении к этому сообществу. Я не знаю "все" является расистским (что на самом деле), но и даже знают, что люди высмеивают другие из-за отсутствия понимания английского не дает вам право высмеивать его / ее.
