| Also so many times i have seen people asking for members who speak Spanish for help... this is discrimination and kinda backstabbing the people who have offered help to other YT members as well. |

| What you said is not offensive but being written in another language is offensive in a way because most members on this forum can't read it. And if the moderators and admin can't read it, how can they monitor what is being said? If everyone was allowed to post in whatever language they wanted, YT would be one big confusing mess. A lot of people wouldn't know what is being said in those other languages.

Administrator | Again, it has nothing to do with whether it is offensive or not. You can PM the member directly if you want to speak another language with them. All YorkieTalk members read English, but they do not necessarily read or understand other languages. Nor does anyone on the YorkieTalk staff. We simply do not allow foreign language posts or threads. Thus it is not allowed. This is not discrimination at all. This is a privately-owned community and it is for people that can communicate in English. No one is forced to be here, people come on their own accord. If you want to communicate in other languages, you may do so at other sites. Last edited by admin; 10-05-2007 at 10:27 AM. |
