may be a little off todays topic but..

Does anyone know the rules that will be set by goa on the servers languages.

I dont have a problem with any country as a rule but when i join a english speaking server i expect everyone to speak english in the gievn main chats.
same with german and french and others.

But after playing wow and being spammed 24/7 with russian or polish i would hate for this to happen.

Would be nice if there was a server rule that keep main channels to the server language and it being reinforced with warnings and chat bans for spam offenders.

what say you

I absolutely agree. I'm not natively English, but I always speak English on English servers. It's just good manners.

well it was never really a problem in daoc but i recall there being something in the EULA about acceptable usage and comunications being in line with the server

if they had that in and old game i would imangine it will make it to the EULA for war havent seen the retail eula so not 100% sure

I'd agree.

I hope there is some sort of moderating regarding this.

And I think chav-net-speak (lol wut u bin doin m8, im gud thx bin eatin and wlking lol spk sn lolxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx) should be policed.

If they police it like they do in Eve Online, it will be fine. A mod always warns people very quickly.

WoW?...Well they don't give a s**t.

Unless you've got your /roleplay flag up and pretend you're roaming in a -10,000 BC East London

Or present day London?

Game isn't set in the present day So.. It's a twsit. I can't understand modern day "chav speak" Some of the terms confuse me.

 

[Prudil]

I agree 100%, I'm native Norwegian and have mostly played on "English" servers, and then the main public language should be that as well.

It's like talking another language with other language speaking people present - its common decency to talk a language every one understands (aka the server language). Keep norwegian, swedish, russian and polish etc within private channels beeing ie guildchat (for country spesific guilds) etc...
