Rules idea?

[moroccan]

Well here is and idea for you all as wass is such an international community why are the rules for activity only in English?

Im sure with the amount of members we have we could get translations into many languages, which mods can then add to bottom of the sticky.

Even though the language that I speak is english and I will be the first to admit all my other languages are poor to say the least, actually i speak french poorly and german even worse. I think that having an area in other languages would be benefical, for those from their respective countries, all it would take is for someone who is fluent to look after the section (we dont want any naughty things going up do we!!). I am sure there are a few poker players on here that are very fluent in a couple of languages to be able to look after a multilingual section. Maybe it is an idea that could be taken further, so it has my support.

I think it is internationally accepted that English is widespread in this hemisphere - the standard of english education that children get in other countries exceeds the foreign language education our children get.

I can pass in french, german, spanish and know a little mandarin, afrikaans, hungarian, welsh and greek but it appears all our members from other countries have better english than me!

p.s. its mostly swear words i know lol

Bloody hell boro, remind me if I need a translator to call on you lol, you seem to be quite the multilingual person.
As for foreigner knowing english, they do seem to know english better than we know a foreign language.

No, really it is mostly swear words picked up from the workers who come to Norfolk for summer jobs in factories and on the land!

So the translation will only be any good if its rude lol

btw doesnt google offer a translation facility? And surely if, for example, some german speakers, wanted to converse in german, there is nothing stopping them from having a topic?
