If you would like to see how these people just treated me please click on the above link! They were so rude and discriminated against me at the first opportunity. It was disgraceful! Considering I’m English I basically live across the water from the French people. How dare they talk to me this way!
I don’t know about this whole rule where no French on here no English on there. What about World Pease people? It’s like WAR everywhere? What does a single forum do? NOTHING! I think to the better people here we should make a forum for French Bimbos. With the aid of Google translator we can see that they type! Its no big deal and why do we want to be the ones who are being discriminative? It’s terrible. We might as well say, sorry no
Muslim, black, pink, yellow, fat girls, skinny girls are allowed here!
Why are we being so racist, and discriminating against our own human race?
Discrimination Definition:
To treat one particular group of people less favourably than others because of their race, colour, nationality, or ethnic or national origin. The law in Britain recognises two kinds of racial discrimination: direct and indirect. Direct discrimination occurs when race, colour, nationality, or ethnic or national origin is used as an explicit reason for discriminating. Indirect discrimination occurs when there are rules, regulations or procedures operating, which have the effect of discriminating against certain groups of people. This may happen in subtle ways. For example, staff at a shop in Blackburn had to wear a uniform skirt, but an Asian woman worker refused for religious reasons. A tribunal found the shop guilty of indirect discrimination, because a large number of Asian women would not be able to comply with the rule.
Im not doing this offend people and yes everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but not when it is racist or discriminative.
Thank you, Ella-Bella

Well, if there is a forum that is dedicated to French people that way I want one that I can speak my own language and I'm sure that other people would want other forums. The translators won't help us that much.
And you know that way the Mods really would be unable to understand what people are saying in those forums... and chaos will strike.

I know I had the same problem so I deleted my account cuz' I got my feelings hurt pretty bad T^T. Anyways, they called me a dumb asian girl and I shouldn't be there anymore. Ah well =]

As their is only a French Miss Bimbo and an English Miss Bimbo that’s why I'm saying we should have forums in each. The Goole translator is very very good. You would have to try it to see and covers all languages.
I just can’t believe it. I’m dumbstruck and speechless.

It isn't discrimination. It's a fair rule. It's a French site, it's rude to go over there and expect members to adapt to your needs.
There are several people here who don't speak English well but they make an attempt, they don't post in a completely foreign language and then get angry when they aren't understood.
Posting in another language automatically excludes people who don't speak the language. That's probably why it's a rule, it's also a little rude.
I read the link you posted and they weren't discriminating against you. They asked you to use a English-to-French translator to talk with them.
That site's a great opportunity for you to even learn French, if you wanted.
I agree that they should combine the site. It's stupid that they haven't and it's easy to do. Even Neopets has that feature where you can change the language in your preference.

That’s totally discussing. How dare they say that to you? It’s against the law! At the moment I’m trying to write a letter to them.

i dont think you were discriminated. i didnt translate all the french stuff, but you werent told you couldnt play at all, just not to speak english on the forums.
its a same rule here, you cant speak any language except english.
now if they had said you cant play because you speak english, that would be discrimination.

I don't mind, but I'm trying to tell you that if there are two parts of the forum many players will start asking the admins to make another, and another... you get the point.

Hello you, my disagreeing friend.
Yes I understand that but I wasn’t asking them to adapt to me. I was just posting hoping to find other English players or French people that could speak English. It was indirect discrimination as they made a rule which prevents me from typing freely in my own language. If moderators want the responsibility of putting a website on the WORLD WIDE WEB then they should take the responsibility of taking on people from all over the WORLD.
It was discrimination people, there are many kinds apart from racism.

So you are saying you are happy to discriminate against people of a different race or nationality? Exactly the rules should be changed and I’m on not agreeing with this site rules either. It is discrimination and if someone comes alone, and god knows someone will, they will take this a lot further.
Goddness people les not get into a kerfuffle about it. i dont want to argue. Just thought it was slightly out of place to tell someone not to type in their own language.

They are taking responsibility for people of the world. Those in the world who speak French. Quebec, some countries in the Middle East, some Caribbean countries or any one from any country who speaks French.
You're asking them to do an almost impossible task. There are almost 7,000 recognized languages in the entire world. To take rake responsibility for all of them isn't realistic.

what's the problem, I can't speak here in Polish you can't speak there in english, they make this page for you to play and speak in english,
when you registred there you agree to obey rules and one of the rules is to speak french in forum

i didnt make the rules, so i dont care what happens. if you get banned for speaking alien, thats not my problem.

It is for me as I fell disriminated against. I can play by the rules yet I dont have to agree with them. That is said and you can all believe in what you like, I know what I believe in and thats all I can say. Please people, dont keep telling me I'm wrong, I know what I believe and I wont change, a way of thinking isnt wrong. Im just brave enough to say what I believe in.

You won't be so happy in the forum if someone is using nasty words at you in other language and you can't tell the mods, because they don't know the language and can't be certain that the person is doing something wrong.
And the translator won't help you in that case.
I'm not happy that English is the only option but that way the Mods can control the players that want to spam and etc.

Really?! I would have never guessed. Thank you for continuing to broaden my horizons with your worldliness.
Let me broaden you to mine. It's not discrimination.
It's discrimination if you aren't hired at a job specifically because you have an accent.
If you aren't hired at a job because they speak French and you don't know any French...that's not discrimination, now is it? Unless you expect them to bring Google into the office and have them translate for you.

Ok you know what you know. Ok let me belive what I belive in. Is that not allowed? Oh sorry tell me how to???????????? LOL!

Way two twist her/his words! D:
Asking someone to stick to French on a French site directed towards French players is hardly unreasonable. Frankly, you are making a mountain out of a mole hill.

I just read the thread and I know what set off the problem. Your tone didn't come through the way you intended it. When someone asked you if you spoke any French and you said "Obviously not, never needed to," it came off as arrogant and condescending, even though you meant the complete opposite.
It looks like the French site has their own version or two of SluttyShelly, and that's to be expected. Mean girls are universal, and I don't think they were discriminating - I bet they're nasty to the other girls on the site in French, too. (If you've never seen the movie 'Mean Girls', it's up on Youtube, definitely worth watching!) Most of the girls who responded were nice to you, willing to meet you halfway and help. Don't overlook them.

Ok. Here I go again.
English is my second language and I don't feel discriminated by Miss Bimbo. There is no law that is forcing the people who made this site to provide every available language.
If I want to speak Bulgarian I go and write in Bulgarian forums, but if you want to write in them, you have to write in Bulgarian too. And that makes every Bulgarian site racist?
