Cosby

Well, I made it to Korea finally. Hope to make it back onto the server sometime but I won't get net access at home till my alien registration goes through. I'm hoping to at least have a slightly better ping than Collins, but from what I hear, we'll definitely be in competition for ping levels. Later Cosby

If this was the first incident that I've seen I wouldn't care so much. Its not though and its happened this way before in unfairer circumstances. I did question your call, and I'm not afraid to stick my neck out for something I see as unjust. Do as you will, but I don't think its entirely fair to portray how I responded like that though, because I did not swear at you and makes me seem more disrespectful than I was. That being said nobody likes to be questioned, I understand your feelings and I appologize if how I responded seemed overly severe for you. If nobody ever said anything about potentialy unjust uses of power, where would we be in the world. Its one of the things your unit represents. I am here to clear this up, not drag anyones name through the mud. Sometimes civvies questioning authority is a good thing. I think overall its a good thing to have policy clarified here so no potential disrespect happens over ambiguous policies.

Nah, it wasn't me who was kicked, just to clear that up. I just don't want to see anyone discriminated against in the server for not being able to speak english, but I also don't want people ignoring admins or mic spamming either. If the incident I was thinking about involved an admin asking some players to not mic spam or that he preferred english at this time that would be different. But what I got was that this was an english only server and so we should only be speaking english here, and if you are not communicating with another player using english you will be kicked/muted. Seems unfair to me to discriminate that way in such a small community, when european and non english speaking players help keep the server alive, and it is such an easy thing to ignore or mute yourself clientside. Do the first marines want to foster an environment that is poisonous for non english speakers? I think some of your finer members are from overseas, and as such would be disrespectful to them. I think though what you have said is closely aligned with my thoughts anyways.

No offense intended, just wanted to hear some sort of official ruling on this as it seems to be arbitrarily enforced and is, as far as I know, not stated any clearer anywhere else than your above post. Thank you.

That doesn't answer my question, it simply states that the servers primary location is in an English speaking country and uses Primarily English. It doesn't say someone is not allowed to use another language in the server without being kicked or muted.

I checked the server rules, and then I checked the reiteration of the server rules. Nothing mentioned in either places listed the server as being English only. Is this a server rule or not, and if so could it be added to the MOTD?
