Re: when intolerance slowly rot the game ...
There's no movement, the game description was probably a joke.
On the language issue:
English is the de-facto language on spring for some very good reasons: its the native language for a considerable proportion of spring users, its one of the most common secondary languages among non-native speakers due to its status as the international 'lingua-franca', and the mods mostly speak English as swift said.

Re: when intolerance slowly rot the game ...
No, not because i said so, because everyone speaks english, global communication, you know... should we then learn ~5000 languages to be sure we can communicate with each other, or just english? Yeah... english sounds easier.Satirik wrote:so i speak spanish german and russian but not english but i have to speak in english because you said so ?
What is the problem with french people anyways? some of them seems like they dont want to speak english, because they dont want to speak english. Sounds so egoistic to me.
Re: when intolerance slowly rot the game ...
Its because they think their language is equal or superior to english.Why would they need to learn english when you could learn french, which has wide use around the world for example in the ex colonies of france in africa ~~What is the problem with french people anyways? some of them seems like they dont want to speak english, because they dont want to speak english.

Re: when intolerance slowly rot the game ...
it's not just the same as you people from little country where you have no choice but speak english or die alone in your mountain with bears !
compare it to spanish, german or italian people, and they don't speak more english than us (maybe german a bit more) .... and don't forget there is a lot of 14- french playing spring who can't speak english yet
and sleksa ... zomg you're so smart !! how do you know ?
every french kid learn english at school ...

If I am hosting a game I can make whatever demands I bloody well please. ESP on the grounds of communications method. IF a player not being able to communicate effectively is detrimental to my game experience then I can tell them stay out of my game.Satirik wrote:so i speak spanish german and russian but not english but i have to speak in english because you said so ?TradeMark wrote:Reason is unfortunately that the *some amount* of *some country* players cant english, so its an agony to communicate with them.

also how is not wanting french people in your game RACIST. saying people who are french count as a race separate from others in inherently racist. What, the fuck do you call me? A mixed breed? Am I a <racial slurs> to you? I am fucking mixed as all hell but most people just call me white? so french is a new race? What am I also irish and italian race? I mean fuck, where does the op get off separating the french as a race separate from the rest of us?

Re: when intolerance slowly rot the game ...

Why so much anger? Is your life so hard?
First of all the word racism is used colloquially to refer to any sort of xenophobia, and even though it's not correct usage, the meaning is understood (in other words you should be offended only by poor language skills, not for reasons of racism). Second, he didn't even say it was racist, he said spring could slip into racism... and it has before (I've seen it more than once).
The biggest concern here is not scaring potential new players from the server, so both the haters and the hater haters should take a pill.
And believe me I'm no fan of France. But without France we wouldn't have french toast, just fried bread.

Re: when intolerance slowly rot the game ...
right, because trying to disbalance the teams by appearing like a rookie in the hope of getting better players on your team is totally somthing people can respect and in no way lameGota wrote:Pressureliine ur a douche bag...I smurf so that people think im a lower ranked player.

Re: when intolerance slowly rot the game ...
It is lame but eevryone does it once in a while plus i was joking..
by the way:
"the term "racial discrimination" shall mean any distinction, exclusion, restriction or preference based on race, color, descent, or national or ethnic origin"-from wiki.
so u can be called racist if u say you dont want french people in your game.

Re: when intolerance slowly rot the game ...
Smoth, note the difference between "don't speak French"/"speak English!" and "no French players".

Wow, what the hell sparked that vitrolic outburst? The OP was perfectly resonable, complaining about a ridiculous demand from a host. It's kind of scary that you took that in bad faith and said he was getting off on separating French people from others...

he should go play starcraft then cry about korean only games. you live in a different part of the world but in louisiana all the constant crying and chanting about racism makes me want to stab people in real life with something large and dull until it manages to cut them in a way that will end the noise that leaves their throat
Re: when intolerance slowly rot the game ...
Um, Smoth, how is it not just random hatred to ban people based on their nationality instead of their abilities?
