This has to stop, right now!

[Aragorn]

Oh cmon!
Is it just me or all those who were accusing others in bad English and shouted them "go fucking learn English" - now sit as a high level nice specialists and teachers for free just cos they wanna help you?

The thing is not in teaching people or not - of cos yes, you can help them in a normal way...
The topic is about insulting non-speaking players with their level of English...
I myself in such situations just tell: you know only your own language and I know mine and yours, so who is more advanced?

I suggest those who are trying to excuse their flames against bad english of other players stop playing innocent teachers...
We all know what is this topic about....

Thanks for attempt...

Careful observers will note that there are no Kumichos that do not have and regularly use TS in Araatus, and to top that off none that do not speak with a British or American accent. This is mainly due to actual ability to understand rather than the prejudice I mentioned above, so you should take that into account when getting angry at people judging you - i.e. they may simply not be able to comprehend your meaning whether in voice or text. In such case, be patient with them if they are with you and try to explain your meaning using a different structure or with different words.

Except me, my accents thicker than 4 day old custard, I'm just awesome though.

There is a huge gap between the grammar nazis and innocent teachers..  :roll:

In international business I have learnt not to use a very high level of English. The more complicated you write, the higher the chances are someone will need an interpreter. Direct communication is always the best.

Agreed.

Use as much as shiny words you want, if the receiver doesn't know the meaning of them, you are talking to a wall.
Of course that "complicated" way of talking is pretty, if you are talking to the correct person/group. But you should analyse the capacity of receiver before talking like that and to be honest not everyone knows that much about english (Example: BlackEagle). I think using basic english is a better idea than talking shakespearish in a public zone of an international community.

I mean..

Frank Hawk did that, with an attempt to look cool. And iMunna too, i think?

[JDC]

iMunna did possess a high caliber of fluency in English, one that contained enough similarities to the brainchild of a thesaurus... my guess would be that he was in actuality a high-level english speaker, or one who crafted all his posts in a thesaurus website.
 
Ofc dat noany change his troll english after he was doed demote and start talk lyk dis, mothafckas!
 
Getting back to the main topic, I do disagree with those who discriminate simply because of English. However, if someone speaks shitty english and continues to deliberately speak shitty english (it doed be lyk dis yo, u dig?), then it shows that they lack the desire to self-improve. I would look with more prejudice on someone with no intentions of improving themselves than on someone who has low skills but is actually trying to gain more.
 
Just because your english is not perfect, that does not mean you are not respectable... however if you already know good english yet continue to speak like a retard, then you are simply degrading yourself.

Thanks for this, will use it

I was expecting to see some police brutality video after noticing the title.
It would be extremely easier if you learnt and tried to improve your English instead of coughing up some speech and expecting revolution like in Egypt. No one's going to stop because that's stupid; it is not negative to criticize one's spelling and/or punctuation, you should in fact thank those who take a minute or two finding several mistakes in order to help.

[JDC]

If you mean examples such as
 
Guy1: I goed to there house yesterday
Guy2: OMG FAIL... you mean went* and their*
 
Then I no longer believe that is helpful. It can damage a person's ego and give them the idea they are inferior because of lack of english skills.

If I was Guy1, I would consider that helpful now that I know my mistakes. Only weak people get offended on the internet.

I myself can deal with flaming... what I am worried about are the younger members who do not know how to cope yet. As you know, we have members in this community who are quite young.
 
Lastly, this is Argonath, not the mere internet... unlike wastelands such as /b/ we do not tolerate disrespect here.
