Meatnmilk reminded me about the foreign language rule: Proboards will delete your boards if you have a board or thread entirely in another language, so I had to delete the Hablan Espanola thread. Sorry guys.

Or a pig lating thread?
Besides, having threads of a different language promotes racial tolerance, understanding, and social diversity!

Yeah... a translator is a good idea.
But I'm actually kind of relieved that I don't have to make my own policy about language.
If I don't understand what you are saying, I cannot really make a judgement on whether it follows my rules or not. And relying on complaints isn't my style because I'm generally a liberal bunny. But I also have to know if someone is crossing a line that ought not be crossed.
So yeah, I would probably issue a similar policy if ProBoards didn't already have it. I would negate that policy, however, if there was a reliable translator on the internet, which I'm doubting there ever will be, especially when it comes to the profane and/or obscene.
Anyway, just thought it was about time to throw in my two cents here.

Yeah I know... and I haven't gotten a complaint about content, so I've basically been simply letting it go.
But now that it has come up, I thought I owed you guys my opinion. Admin and all, ya know...
So it's okay don't worry. Knowing the policy now is the important part.
