I'll never get why people who can't speak English join an English-speaking forum... actually, I lie... I know exactly why they join (F-ing SPAMMERS all of them). You don't see me joining your Russian and Hindi forums... I would love to see a ban on people who don't speak English well enough to communicate without a translator... especially considering almost all of them are here only to spam us with their crap websites that we don't want to see, and give us their unsolicited opinion under Americanized pseudonyms on movies, what their favorite color is, and generic topics of American culture (all of which gets old fast when you're here to talk about web technology)... oh, but they'll talk your ear off incessantly about pedestrian SEO topics that have already been talked to death 1000 times - why? because every last one of them is a 2nd-rate SEO expert wannabe who's here to SPAM us. It honestly makes my experience less enjoyable.. would love to rid of these cockroaches once and for all. Anyone else annoyed to no end by this?

I swear, soon I'm gonna start spamming Russian webmaster forums with the pseudonym Vladimir Blosminski starting threads on which Vodka people prefer, then I'm gonna join all the Indian forums with the name Sandeep Punjapi and start threads about which is better - Vindaloo or Tandori Chicken?

This same thing happens in online games too.

English speaking servers get flooded with people that can't speak the language.

Well at least there they're joining to play and enjoy the game... here they're joining 99% of the time to spam their sh*t websites

Similar scenario on online games too. They come on, after agreeing to terms of service of ENGLISH only and start spamming the public talk channels with the useless gibberish noone can understand.

And then they tell us to go die when we start telling them to speak English. lol

I play on a WoW private server, and today some serbian guy said he was going to come to my house and kill me because I asked him to stop spamming the public channels and speak English and show respect for the server (considering it's an English speaking server based in the United States).
