Ok mods, I'm really pissed now Options

[Simba]

First of all, you just made me break the number one rule of cB World Language Day. Shame on you guys.

Now,

That is I do not care. We are after a ENGLISH website. I do everything in English, so you have to do it. Thank you.

That was a PM I got from Dee. It was originally in German, but that's the rough English translation.

Ok, since when was it against the rules to use foreign languages? I don't even see it on the Community Guidelines or Terms of Service.

I was warned, allegedly for "spamming in The Lounge." Do you guys honestly think I'm low enough to just randomly spam in The Lounge? Everything was closed and deleted before everything could be explained. Did you guys already forget the rule on deletion we JUST MADE YESTERDAY? ARE YOU DAFT?

If you would've actually read my topics, they were completely legit. My first one, which you mods should've read before you even thought about closing anything, was an explanation of cB World Language Day. My second was about heritage, which even had legit responses (I remember Joanne's specifically), but was deleted anyway.

You guys, this is disappointing. Especially since we just went over this.

[karmakiller]

Haha, you need to translate at a different place. You PMed me in German, so I replied in German.

I warned you because you made multiple topics.

[Simba]

What's wrong with making multiple topics if they're all legit? I've made a lot more consecutively in English.

[T_R_G]

Hmm, yeah I don't see the problem here. I agree with funky Juna.

[Simba]

What's taking you guys so long to respond? Do you guys always have to discuss things Backstage before doing anything?

I want to know every single mod that just handled cB World Language Day, and what exactly they did.






cB doesn't care about world culture.

It was part of forum rules, that were deleted some time ago. This was brought up before, i could find it for you, but laziness has kicked in. but foriegn languages are not, nor ever been allowed here.

If it was deleted, then how the hell would I have known it wasn't allowed? wtf kind of logic is that

And actually, foreign languages have been allowed before. Refer to the "culture" clubs like the Chinese club and stuff. Tina and I tried looking for it, but to no avail. I guess it got lost when Suzzette deleted everything.

[Joanne]

^x2 I'm with Juna on that one.

[karmakiller]

If it was one thread, I would've been ok with it. I deleted 16 topics.

[Simba]

Ok, I can't vouch for other people's topics, but I can guarantee you that my topics were legit. Since when was making multiple topics that are NOT spam, in turn contributing to cB, against the rules? You guys have still failed to answer this.

[karmakiller]

Because Createblog is an English website?

[Simba]

Because Createblog is an English website?

That's it?


Since when does cB being a English website mean you must strictly use ENGLISH ONLY? That's awfully nazi-like.

[DoubleJ]

If that's the case, then everybody should have to use proper English no?

[Simba]

LOL, so this is why Prince was banned, EH?

[Simba]

What about Chinglish or Engrish?


Look, the point is, you can't just have a ban on foreign languages like that. And you especially can't go around warning and deleting topics by members who weren't even aware that English is the only language they could use because the rule's not even written down anywhere.

[DoubleJ]

That's why we have this:

[Simba]

I don't think the problem was that you were warned for making foriegn language topics, its that you were spamming which is clearly written in your log anyway.

Did it ever occur to you that perhaps the person who wrote "spamming" in my log made a mistake? The warn logs are not flawless, you know, nor are they very detailed. It's hard to go on something that just says "Spamming in The Lounge."

Just because it was written in my log doesn't mean it's fact.

The problem with a foriegn langage topic, or post is how are other people supposed to understand really? How many registered users do you think speak arabic? maybe 1% not even.. so why make a topic saying something in arabic. sounds pointless, and spammy, which is against the community guidelines.

You are so cruel to the minorities.




Favor: Can you guys please recover my topic on heritage? It's the one with the French title. Something along the lines of "Embrace Your Inner Fob!"

[karmakiller]

members who weren't even aware that English is the only language they could use

You guys have been here for a long time. Look around at all the other topics, they are in English.

I already said that if you guys hadn't made 16 topics that I wouldn't have had a problem. If you wanted to make posts in different languages, then do it in one thread. Don't cover the Lounge in other languages.

[Tung]

Juna poses a legit argument. I like to ask why this topic of mine wasn't close as well?

http://www.createblog.com/forums/index.php...=206234&hl=

It was in Vietnamese.

I've been around here for 2 years and haven't seen any rules that say we must use English. How do I assume that I can only speak in English by observing that? Also, for the record, foreign languages have been used before, I've already said that.

About the multiple topics: I already asked what's wrong with making several legit topics several times.

I move we keep this "culturally aware movement" to one single topic, i.e. this one.

I'm replying here, because I don't want to ruin my foreign language streak out there.

No thank you. You know how messy it's gonna me if we have all of our topics contained in one topic? Everyone's going to get confused.




You guys keep going in circles. It's kinda like this picture:

Just doesn't make sense.

However, English is still the only language allowed.

Statements like this just make me cringe. *cringe*

[Tung]

However, English is still the only language allowed.

I'm being frank and nice with you, and supporting both sides of this debatacle. However, I hoped you did not pull that rule out of your sweet firm juicy ass, because I would like to see a quote of Terms of Service on this.

[Simba]

http://www.createblog.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=207185

Did you guys even read my topic that I actually took the time to translate single handedly into English for you?

You guys are killing the whole spirit of the event by containing it like this. It's meant to be a cB wide celebration.

[Simba]

Ok mods, I just added a new rule for cB World Language Day since it seems y'all still have your panties in a bunch and all.

- You must put the language you're speaking in at the end of your post. So the mods don't get too ticked off and all.

Having to do anything like this shouldn't be necessary at all, but I know how you mods work.


By the way, as relevant or irrelevant as it may be, Javonn made the interesting observation that it's only been Caucasians that reject the idea of cB World Language Day. Huh?





Before anyone says anything, this isn't a double post because it was made a nice time after the latest post.

[datass]

english is the only language allowed? where is that stated?

你們極為愚蠢和可怕地殘忍。

does this mean i should be banned now?

[synatribe]

Im pretty disappointed that the mads keep saying that english is the only language allowed. people use korean and japanese on the official kpop and jpop club and I dont think Jusun [admin] would mind other languages given the fact that he is of more than one culture. I think there shouldnt be any warning for using different languages afterall has anyone complained about people using other languages?. Its a matter of respect that I think all Cbers understand, I mean America dosent only speak english , we're diverse like cb and you cannot tell people to not come to this site because of the language they prefer Im pretty dissapointed at many of the quotes from the mods. what happened to cb is a democracy?

[KryMeARiver]

RACIST MODS

karmakiller you sack of shit, why do you send me a PM but have me blocked from responses?

You made multiple foreign language topics in the Lounge, so I have no choice but to warn you.

No choice but to warn me eh? What the f**k is wrong with you? You don't have free will/judgment skills? When you see a foreign language, are you overcome by the urge to warn people, just like when you see a penis, you are overcome by the urge to place it in your mouth and start sucking on it like the whore you are?

[pandemonium]
