I have seen many many Users and Mods on Here bashing people about their posts because English is not their Primary language and seems "Broken" or sounds "Stupid"
This includes theymos " - While some amount of error is difficult to avoid, if your English is so broken that you sound stupid, then your post will be deleted." topic is here can't be Quoted https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/rules-for-serious-discussion-and-ivory-tower-2722359
English speaking people who seem to think that learning a second language perfectly is easy should probably try it themselves.
Imagine that??
You have to ask yourself how many languages does theymos fluently speak? or how about The Pharmacist? or Mr. Prep?

If you don't speak English, don't post on English sections.
There is:Quote
But there's no restrictions regarding that.
9. Discussions in the main boards must be in english. All other language discussions should be posted in the appropriate Local board.
You can argue up to what point bad English is still English, but it's obvious there is a line somewhere.My bad from cutting your post. My actual thought was: No one restricts users to post in English boards even though their English is bad. Well unless it's so bad that no one understands anything.
Just the tone and language used.
I already agreed on that, the forum is just nicer if we're all just a bit polite, even if we don't like each other. And yes, that's not always so easy

Not really. Perhaps a pinch.
I know many Filipinos, and I know they're all very proud of their country. But they also leave that country instantly if they ever get the chance, and even then they remain very proud of the place they left behind for a better place.
Because they believe that there are more job opportunities outside Philippines.
Do I shitpost? Yes, who does not 
Many people don't, it's the people who don't care that create a huge problem on this forum. I currenly report much more posts than I place by myself.Depends on the definition of shitpost from every individual.
As far as I know, this forum doesn't have any rules against something as biased as "ethics"
Fully aware but did I said The Pharmacist break any rules? I just accepted his request
I agree but at least you did not singled out Filipinos.
Why do you care so much?Not much
but it's also obvious the large majority of Filipinos on this forum are shitposters. What if he'd say the same about all Asians: would you still be mad? Or if he says the same about all humans?
I cannot argue with something obvious. I am not actually saying "why only us?" or something. Just the tone and language used.

I agree. Fixed for you
(No sarcasm added )Also, doesn't this shit belong in Reputation?
I apologize for shitting on your lawn.
Also, doesn't this shit belong in Reputation?
I think so, yes. Unless he considers this to be related to the forum, but as far as I've seen, much worse language doesn't get deleted by moderators. I think theymos values expression of speech much higher than possibly hurting someone's feelings.I considered this as related to this forum so I posted this shit here. If I did a terrible judgement I'll be happy to move this (give me a go signal
)I am not up to mods and admin to do something about this but just to say that The Pharmacist crossed the line and happily complied with his request. I so not even want an apology, that would be shit, isn't it
Although I disagree on the language The Pharmacist uses, I understand his frustration with shitposters. Not only from the Philippines, but also (or even more) from Indonesia.
I know many Filipinos, and I know they're all very proud of their country. But they also leave that country instantly if they ever get the chance, and even then they remain very proud of the place they left behind for a better place.
Words are powerful. They are sharp enough to cause wounds and could even kill. I respect opinions but yours are too offensive in my side.

Thanks.
but this is just a symptom of people's frustrations here with 'shitposters' and the sad fact is that a good majority of them happen to be Filipino (along with other South East Asians such as Indonesians and to a lesser extent Vietnamese).
I agree but at least you did not singled out Filipinos.
Whilst The Pharmacist was probably out of line I kinda agree with actmyname that you should direct most of your anger towards your fellow countrymen as it's them that are giving you all a bad name.
I am not that mad of The Pharmacist. I respect his opinion/statement but just like you've said, he's out of line.
I cannot blame some (or many) of my fellow countrymen here if they're not well in english (I consider myself as well) or if they're only here because of bounties. No matter what the reasons are, at least they are having a life. Some uses bounties here to sustain studies, to cope daily expenses due to unemployment. Some helps the community, the 2 Filipino Moderators for the most suitable example. Some wants to learn and be updated.
If the forum wasn't swamped with so many of you causing a good percentage of the mess here there probably wouldn't be so much hostility towards you.
It's hard to clean up messes especially if you did not make and/or cause them.
They are sharp enough to cause wounds and could even kill. I respect opinions but yours are too offensive in my side.
Not true. Words don't kill people. Actions do.
Also, sticks and stones...
That's figuratively speaking.

Honestly, you shouldn't be mad at The Pharmacist but rather direct your frustrations towards the account farmers that perpetuate this shit. How many times do you see chum bucket scum posting all this asinine crap? Perhaps not all people from the Philippines circulate garbage across the forum and spew diarrhea out the wrong end, but you certainly do see a lot. Enough to make such a generalization.
It could be harsh. But doesn't this highlight the problem with the forum? Up to you to stop them from being dingos.

Am I mad? Perhaps.
Do I approve shitposting? Nope. Others might label me as one and I don't care.
Do I shitpost? Yes, who does not
The main point here is not about shitposting or whatsoever. The point is that The Pharmacist called Filipinos (in general) starving and obsessed with bounties, pansies, and monkeys. Do you want someone to mock a community you're in, in general? Hell no. That is discrimination and racism. Not to mention unethical.

To The Pharmacist: Request granted.
The request:
The first direct attack:
Directly stated that Philippines/Filipinos are "starving to death whilst anticipating a bitcointalk paycheck" and would only mean that Filipinos here are obsessed to be paid via bounty campaigns in this forum and are very poor (based from "starving to death").
He also may have indirectly called Filipinos as "desperate shitposters". Though this phrase may be addressed to everyone (who are shit posters, of course) but the fact that he singled out Philippines is just a clear form of discrimination and racism. (I am not saying that there are no shitposter from Philippines but there are shitposters from other countries as well.) Be fair, at least.
The second direct attack:
He called Filipinos monkeys. 1
He states that the "collective contributions (of the Filipinos) to bitcointalk are ZERO" while there are 2 Filipino Moderators in this forum. Namely Dabs and rickbig41
Words are powerful. They are sharp enough to cause wounds and could even kill. I respect opinions but yours are too offensive in my side.
The request:
You people are a bunch of pansies, wounded by words. And if Filipinos wete any less evolved as a society, they'd all have fur and tails. Their collective contributions to bitcointalk are ZERO. If you can prove me wrong, do so in another thread, preferably in English.
Archived: https://archive.fo/QN9Jn#40%The first direct attack:
Dude, lock the thread so as not to mislead these desperate shitposters--which are the only applicants you're going to get with an offer like this. Nobody understands what's going on, and meanwhile the Philippines is starving to death whilst anticipating a bitcointalk paycheck.
Sad to say, but I'm loving the campaign UN-availability. It's about time these sig campaigns have come to an end. Perhaps the forum will shed these knuckleheads for good and for all.
