As far as I can contribute to this thread is that Every Local board follows their rules and they talk in their native language if they see any kind of spam, or useless posting from an outsider member they report their post to the moderator so that the moderator can take action accordingly. You should know that if your post is being deleted by the moderators it will not be a good thing for your account health.

Besides all that, if you still want to contribute to any other local board you do not officially belong to go and ask there some rules if they used to follow some, Post there a quality post only if necessary. Do not spam in any other local board well Spamming is a thing that is not allowed to do on the whole form if you get caught doing spamming it can be a bad thing for you.

Do not translate your post using a translator. If you can communicate in their language, you can post on their local board.

In addition to this already said by _act_ i will make it a suggestion that there's no need of worrying about going everywhere, you cant virtually be in every board, not even when you set a notification on other English boards, some may still be fast ahead of you in making posts, only contributes to the language you hear and understand, moreover posting on local boards is not compulsory.

By posting on local boards which they can't directly speak the language then provably they might notice that they say a bad word that can dismay those people who read their translated post. So much really better for people to step out on the local board if they don't know how to speak the language so that they will not put theirselves on some troubles that they don't wish to enter. Also global or English boards is more larger also there are updated topics there so for sure those guys can contribute more there by knowing what are the topics has been discuss by people.

I don't know the main intention on why these people think about crossing to other local boards but much better if they let native speakers to discuss and don't interfere them by using any translated text.

Are we permitted to engage and contribute across local boards?, I mean being a member of the Nigeria local board, can I contribute in India, German and other local boards?.
I know some of them are not using the same language as mine, but there are translators to the rescue. I still think there are valuable informations there that can be of good benefit to me and help me broaden my horizon

Thank you in advance for your more experienced feedbacks

First, there is no restriction about posting on different local boards, anyone can post and contribute to any local board, the problem is the communication, since people may or may not understand the kind of language one will use if he is not a local of that board.

I don't know if there is an almost perfect translation app available on the store.  So using a translator may often misunderstood as spamming or using an AI app, and we all know that several members of this forum hate AI-generated replies. 

Btw, what is your motivation in thinking of posting across the local board?  Aside from merit hunting, I don't find any reason why a member pursues such an approach.  We have boards dedicated where everyone can participate so why not use that board to help other people?

I don’t think using a translation app is a good idea to help you convey your message or translate your post. Instead, learn their own language if you really are highly interest to participate in their discussion, that’s the best possible way so you won’t be seen like spamming or using AI generated post.

I guess if you are into hunting merits, you can always earn it most likely in your own local board, without meddling into other local boards. Don’t complicate yourself, just post where you are most comfortable to post.

Throughout my time on this forum, I've seen many instances where top forum members strongly oppose using Google Translate to translate into other people's languages. It is not required that you communicate with other local boards, and if what you want to contribute is very important, you can ask a member of the local board to assist you in translating it to their local language and sending it there. That is what I see other forum members do when they have something important to say and want it to be seen on all local boards, as some users are not fluent in the general English language and communication here.
Correct. Using Google Translate is not effective, we are often confused about the meaning of what we want to convey so that the meaning we want to convey cannot be understood. If you want to provide important information or anything else, asking users for help from their local councils is much better and more effective. This is also what several users I met did.

Moreover, if the goal is to find information on other people's local councils, we only need to monitor and follow, no need to comment. because it will ruin other users' discussions with the presence of useless posts from those of us who use Google Translate. This is what I do when looking for information from other local councils, just come and read and join the discussion but without getting involved in the discussion.

Seriously, I don't think I would do so, even if i could speak the language fluently. I see how they discriminate against a member when he posts on other local boards as if he were coming to steal something. If such a thing happens and the user case is carried to the reputation board, these DT members will not care to know the truth and will tag your account immediately. I know what I am saying, and it has been proven.

Loud and clear, always avoid any local board that is not your LB. It is risky!

I don't see any problem in trying to participate and make friends in local boards.  If you are going to use a translator, don't trust 100% in what is translated, at least try to review the message and see if there is anything wrong or out of context, everything will be resolved with a little effort and good will.

In this case, there is no prohibition on posting on other boards, but there is a prohibition on using the translator directly in the forum. So in this case, if you want to post in the local thread, you need to know their language, if you post directly using Google translator, your post will be deleted, and may your account will be banned.
But if you have knowledge about their language then you can do it, I myself and some of my local mates have posted in other local thread like urdu and hindi language. Because we know fairly about Urdu and Hindi languages. I would suggest you to translate other informative global posts into your local language and post them in your local thread. And if you have an informative post, you can collaborate with other local board members and get their help for translating.

Using translation is not actually effective because it might not be the exact point of view that you want to share
That's not entirely true. As long as you are not using idioms and are capable of writing a proper sentenvce in your native language, translations tools can do a pretty good job. Problem is that people are not doing that an are using bunch of slangs and idioms which then turn out to be nonsense when you use Google translate/chatgpt(which is mho better translation tool).

That of course doesn't mean that people should go into local boards of langauge they don't speek and get into deep conversations/discussions but I see no problem if someone there mentions you so you come and answer.

Contributing to other local boards apart from yours is allowed but make sure you make a contributing remark in line with what they are talking about in English than using a translator to make a post/comment there(local board) when the post is been written in their local language.

Using a translator as a rescue to make posts on other member's local boards is not an encouraged thing to do because the translated word will sound a bit different from how they speak and make sentences in their language.

Having said that, it is better to stick to your local board that you know how to communicate properly with it than using a translator for other local boards post

Hello all, I'm delighted to be in this forum with so much knowledge flying around and we can only grab as much as we can at a given time. I have come to the understanding that this prestigious forum is one governed my several rules which have individual consequences if not strictly followed and that I wish to abide by while navigating and contributing my own quota as a Bonafide user in this forum. I've taken my time to read the rules and regulations of different board and most of the pinned threads. Now getting over to my local board, I didn't observe one and I have a disturbing question I wish to ask for clarification for not only me, but for others to also take note of regarding the local board section.

If you are not native speaker or can't speak the language on the other board then much better not to post anything there as you might encounter a problem especially if you use google translate since not every word shown is accurate and might you will end up in mess if you don't understand what you are posting there.

If you want to help much better if you post more valuable contents on your local boards and help those people to get new or somethings refreshers to the information you know so there's a lot of people will be informed on some things needed to consider on their invest on other important crypto discussions.
Some want to cross to some local boards since they think it will be easy for them to get merits there but actually that's not going to be easy as they think.

Are we permitted to engage and contribute across local boards?
There are no rules against it, but keep in mind that in some local boards you might get your post deleted when they realize (and they will) that you are using google translate/AI chatbots.about. I personally visit certain local boards and use Google traslate but only ocassionally and when I get mentioned for a certain reson and I never meddle into their conversations if it has nothing to do with me.

In short, be reasonable about it and you shoulnd't have any issues.
Using translation is not actually effective because it might not be the exact point of view that you want to share, so as much as possible stick to English language or learn their medium of expression so that you can easily dive to their topic and share your relevant ideas you have within. However, I suggest to stick to your own local board as much as possible, but if you really are interested to post to their local board, no issues with it but make sure your post will stay on point so that you won’t be regarded having low content or off-topic poster.

There have been users and still are users that continues to contribute to several locale. There isn’t any rule to that, that restricts users from making contributions to a locale that they could understand. There are persons with dual nationality, there are those who simply can understand the language and there are those who are persistent travelers and so, have picked up interest in other cultures as it affects them. You don’t get to stop such persons from participating in a locale that they could relate.
You probably should so long as you ain’t just going about trying to translate posts just to ensure participation.

Of course you are allowed! There are seven some instances where people would use Google Translate in order to translate and learn the respective phrases/statements coming from other members in such local boards. Additionally, there are also some people who are fluent with more than two (2) languages- so it is naturally normal for them to engage into other discussions with the language they are accustomed to.

This forum knows no limits. As long as you can engage in meaningful discussions with others without sacrificing any quality posts on your part, then you are definitely free to comment and help one another across multiple local boards.

Be reminded, however, that if you are going to use Google Translate, there are statements that are not accurate when it comes to translation. Preferably, engage in discussions with local boards to which you are fluent to.

I think its permitted as long as you knew the local languange but using translator might be not good since its considered as cheating or form of copying. Well I think theres might few who can do this probably those profession who are really proficient into languages. But can I ask why you wanted to do multiple languages in terms of discussion? Might as well focus on your own local board for more consistency.

As a newbie, there are more important general discussions in the global board for you to engage in even more than enough for you to learn and contribute to, so what is the need for the hurry of wanting to middle in on local board issues if it doesn't concern you in any ways, this is very important to note and also take responsible for your actions since not many encourages the use of translator to try to communicate with, this is why we have to take a closer look at what local board qe want to engage in their discussion and what the nature of the topics are.


But in general, I think, it fair better to stick to one local board to avoid getting involved in discussions you don't have knowledge and information on

Yes, provided that you truly understand the languages you mentioned. However, don't try to act smart and use a translator to communicate there, because doing so is against the forum rules and will result in consequences. 
You can conduct additional research and translate the information from other local boards so that you can learn more, but if you are certain that you don't understand the languages, don't write anything there, so you won't get yourself into any trouble.

If you don't understand, I'll suggest that you stick with your local board and any other boards you have knowledge of, because all the information you might require in India and the other local boards you mentioned many are available in the main boards.

I don't think think their is any rules that forbid someone from engaging in meaningful conversation in another local board that is not yours, just that the challenge that you will surely encountered is the language, but if you can speak and interact well with the language, I don't think anything is stopping you from engaging in meaningful conversation across all local board.

As for me, I only understand English and my own local language, if I was able to speak and interact with several languages I would have definitely done so, in most local board. I believe that this forum is meant for discussion of things like Bitcoin and other important thing about life, so I don't believe that their is any restrictions, expecially in a case like this which everyone is anonymous, so I believe it's possible.
