Just a thought and hope that doesn't have room for breaking the forums policies and no penalty resultant?
There is no penalty for having conversation across various local boards. The main aim of local boards is to share information and good knowledge of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies across the forum including members that cannot speak or understand English language; since the forum’s official language is English language, local boards are created to help people that cannot speak English to get good information in their own local languages.

If you can speak the language in the local board, you can interact with them and share your thoughts and some information you feel is necessary in the discussion if you can speak their language.

If they would help the other board since he think its been outdated already and almost all people are inactive then yes maybe its fine to go on those boards. But if the target is to join there then spam a lot of spam threads to aim for merits then this is not really so good.

We all know here that there are active local boards where people are also active sharing merits to their fellow countrymen and I guess this is what they target that's why this people think about crossing their board to try their luck if there's some people will give them merit if they post something there. Merit drought on some local boards is maybe the reason why other people try think about going to another languages since maybe they think its more faster to rank up there rather staying on their almost dead local sections.
so true. Actually, it doesn't matter, but first look at the main goal of passing to another local board, whether you really want to help there or just want to get merit.

If the main goal is to help colleagues there, that's certainly very good. What's more, this is a public forum, everyone can go anywhere and anywhere without any restrictions. Also keep in mind, usually each country has its own unique characteristics and regulations on their local board. It's better before joining the local board, we have to read the rules and then contribute well and wisely there.

Hunting for merits on local board that have excessive inflow of merit would had also been a problem.
It may already be happening and we don’t know it yet. It could also be that some members have discovered that certain local boards can be used to farm merits hence the interest in joining these local boards.


If anyone thinks there's so much knowledge on a particular local board and he wants to be a part of that then he should go and learn how to read, write and speak the language before participating in discussion on the local board.
Lol we both know that’s not happening. This will only give room to people using google translators.


Local board are meant for discussion that are associated with the locals on the board so if you aren't from their country, topics being discussed there should have little or no concerns to you. We have enough English board that are available to English speakers to be a part of, we should let the locals have their space.

I second that. This is the second thread I’ve read this week about using translators in local boards. I don’t understand the interest in local boards that are alien to you. Have the general boards become so boring that we have to go into different local boards and join discussions there? IMO I don’t think it’s a local board if just anyone can post there.

It's not a problem, understanding the language is important. If you understand the language, you can definitely go to the local section of another country and read the posts of that local section as well as reply to them. If you understand the language of another country and if you post in the local section of that country, then by posting in that language, you must write below that you are not a citizen of that country but you are a citizen of another country. If you just want to go to all other sections and read the posts then you don't have to do anything but if you are posting in other local section you should mention this at the end of the post then you should have no problem.

We can visit other local boards and can join their discussions if we fully understand their language but if we just use a translation tool, we better not do it. Not because it was not allowed or if there is a penalty but it is just like showing respect to them. Honestly, it was hard to keep using a translator board for the sake of communicating with other people.

I ask you a question, what is the main reason for doing this? Because I don't believe it is just to discuss with them about Bitcoin investment as it was already discussed in your local board as well.

Anyway, I hope that OP got the answer already.
There is no rule that says we can’t post in other foreign local boards, most especially if we are highly skilled using other languages and we get to understand every detail on it using that certain language. But, if you end up using an effective translator, that alone will put your account into possible warning that may get into being banned if you do it more consistently. Know the rules first before you create such actions, in order to keep your existence in the forum quite longer and productive.

I thought of this because the pool of knowledge and learning is being way too broad and versatile which possibly I think that interested forum memeber can as well visit some foreigners local board and acquire some fact of knowledges maybe even have something profitable to contribute to the board as concerned.

Is a good thing the forum doesn't allow translators to be used in joining discussion on the local board because it would had spoiled the flow of discussion on the board as translated discussion will always be different from when a native speaker of the language is writing and spammers would had used that opportunity to spam activities for their account and spoiled the local board. Hunting for merits on local board that have excessive inflow of merit would had also been a problem. If anyone thinks there's so much knowledge on a particular local board and he wants to be a part of that then he should go and learn how to read, write and speak the language before participating in discussion on the local board.

Everyone is free to visit and post on other local boards, provided that you also understand their medium of instruction so that you can maximize the ideas you want to share, as well as you also learn from their own insights and ideas. But when it comes to hiring a translator in order to create a good communication, that’s already breaking the rule of the forum. If you think you aren’t good enough using other language, then just stick on your own local board. If you really are a good poster, you can attract merits without entering other local boards and violating the forum rules.
Correct. That's better, we have been given our own local board facility in the language we use every day of course. maximize it and be an active person on the local board, helping each other and communicating there. If you want to get information from outside, you can visit the global board so you can get newer information which can later be distributed to the local board. instead of forcing it to another local board using a translator, the results of which actually confuse the users there. If this happens frequently, it is not impossible that your posts will be reported to moderators and marked as spam.

Those boards are mearnt for users to interact with each other & for all I know we have people that can speak and write in several languages which isn't against the forum , and not being fluent in a language is acceptable as it's a way of learning the language as far as I know, but I believe when you use this to use this to your advantage for gigs such as translation jobs and your language interaction isn't fluent then this is as good as defrauding the other party which will put you in trouble for sure..
Using a translator when posting in local boards are strictly prohibited. Otherwise, you might get banned in the forum without notice. However, if you tend to post to some other foreign local boards and explore their type of discussion and eventually learn from them, that is not discouraged in the forum. There are really these type of people who are still more fluent with other languages, and that’s quite an edge to some other forum members. And as long as you never take it for your own advantage, then you’re good to continue posting in the forum.
In some countries, they have more than one language used, but not all members of this forum come from that country, so i personally feel that members who post in their foreign language and use Google Translation without urgent needs are a nuisance.  Giving a strong warning at the start is a wise decision, but if it continues, banning is the best thing to do.

i'm sure all the members here have their own local language, if you really want to maintain the cleanliness of your local thread then report moderators, annoying foreign members and going off topic.

Is there any penalty resultant of a bitcointalk forum memeber to double Cross in accessing and also contributing to foreigners local board discussions?

No you can as long as you understand the language and can communicate back fluently in that language. No penalty for that in the forum but translators are prohibited for posting on those local boards but you can use one to learn from their discussions there, is is better for you especially if it’s an impactful discussion going on there.

What I have seen in this regard is that, the post of some members in the general board are asked by the OP’s of those thread that members of other local boards can help them translate into their local language, so that members of their local board can benefit from the information they’re trying to pass.

The local boards indeed contain many valuable discussions and topics that may be exclusive. However, why not visit these foreign local boards to try to learn their languages and understand and read what they write in their native language using one of the tools without attempting to contribute and engage with them in the discussions using automatic translation tools? Because your contributions are at a rate of 90%, it will be incomprehensible to some, as these tools are useless and violate the forum's rules.

If you have your own local board, you can participate in its discussions. You can continue these discussions until the end, answer their questions easily, and express your opinions that everyone there will understand without your posts looking spammy. Regardless of the local boards, English is the main language understood by everyone here, and undoubtedly, in multiple forum sections, you will find these discussions in English, and you can contribute to them.
You can make a lot of valuable posts in your local board, as much as you can also learn to visit other foreign local boards and learn from their discussion. That is a good way to become familiar as well with their own language, or start learning as to how their foreign local boards discussion goes.

However, knowing English language is the universal language, everyone is expected to easily understand even in foreign local boards as long as you are also good in using English language. With that, if you can contribute meaningful insights to their own topics or threads, then the more reason that we should also start posting on other foreign local boards.

I think, you can make a contribution in other local board when you know how to write and speak their language, because they will not know that you are not from their country and there is no rules against that in the Bitcointalk. Local board are made for newbies to use their language to learn cryptocurrency from their local board to improve in the forum, because it will be very easy for legendary and hero members to make their newbies to understand some of the things they need to know in the local board to display quality post. But don't go other local board to mense up their local board or to make their local board have some negative record with your contribution, because they will not know that you are not from the local board, because you can speak their language and write which is happening in some local board which is not good to destroy others local board just because you know how to speak their language and write.

As most people already suggested, it does not make any sense if you don't understand their local language, there is no reason for going there, the reason why there is local language is for other people to be able to express themselves freely and contribute without having language barrier, English is the most common and general official language, but not everyone understands it, they can engage on a discussion from the local board they belong to and freely communicate and discuss ideas without stress, but for a person that does not belong there, its nothing than violation as been said already by other members.

I saw a similar thread from a week ago although, it was centered on participation using translators in events where you’ve been notified of a quote or something.

I think the forum remains OP to all once you can speak the language. I think it’s one means to identify with a local board and especially, when what affects them affects you.

That's right, I also thought about this topic. And a question for the OP: haven’t you read the other threads in this section?
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.63972002

Why ask self-evident questions? Sometimes it seems that for a character like you, it doesn’t matter what you create a topic about; the main thing is to flash before your eyes. But if you lack logic, answer by thinking: how can I or someone else be prohibited from visiting the local section of a language direction that is not ours? Accordingly, if you speak the language of the local section that interests you, you can communicate freely; if not, then the mistakes that Google Translator makes will be visible to native speakers, and they have the right to complain about you. This is a violation.

I know I'll be next question how is it possible to cope with the foreigners local board since they specifically speaks their native language. So there I'll suggest using the translator and how about someone who has basic skills to be fluent with the language?
I'm just being optimistic about this because right in my local board, there are interesting discussions going right there which is not discussed in the general boards so I think we can as much also acquire to enhance our aspirations with our bitcoin investment and as well adopt some profitable everyday life lessions at the foreigners local boards.

Just a thought and hope that doesn't have room for breaking the forums policies and no penalty resultant?

If they are multi lingual then its fine for people to visit multiple boards since everyone has a freedom to do what they want here. But if you are not a native speaker and you are just been amazed on how they circulate their merit on that local boards then maybe you should leave them alone. Since you will just create some mess especially if you really only on google translate.

If you want to contribute something go to your local board since I think for this that is the right venue to show some concern about something you want to share and help other people.

Its better not to cross board if you can't fully understand them since respecting each boundaries is important although there are times that we really want to help and for sure there's a lot of native speakers in forum will do that.

@OP even though there's stated the forum didn't allow to use google translator, but the reality it's allowed.

But, make sure your post is genuine, not shitposting.

Example you're a Brazilian, you travelled to Korea and you want to ask how to use Bitcoin ATMs in Korea, you're allowed to use google translator.

But if your intention is to become a fake native speaker by using google translator, it's not allowed.
Thanks for this clarification, because I've often wondered that if a forum member wants to ask a genuine crypto related question in a foreign local board, probably planing to travel to the country or is infact in the country, that the barrier of not using translator to post in foreign languages will be a disadvantage. It's good to know that there's a clause to breaking the rules of posting in a board that you can't speak and write in their local language, it's only allowed if it's an important question that perhaps concerns your crypto transaction in their country.

I've always known that this forum is very organized and the reason for breaking a rule when you post in a foreign local board  is so you not to spam their board, but exceptions to the rule is when you're asking a genuine question that you need help from the locals.

Even if each country does not have a separate local board, each country has its own child board. If there is a child board, the members of that country should be posted in the local section of that country. If I am a citizen of a different country and post in another country, but I have to use translate in posting, but in that case, I cannot fully express my thoughts. If I can't fully express my thoughts, then the post will not be self-fulfilling at all.
