Reply to One method to Easily Solve the language issue
My biggest worry with this approach would be making it simple enough for the user. WHat if someone speaks multiple languages? Do they have to select a fitting language for each comment they write? And what if the interface hides important information (say images) because someone accidentally marked it as the wrong language?
I think the idea sounds good in theory but would need to be fleshed out for it to work in reality.
Yeah i don't see a problem with any of that really. They can choose per comment... a default just means what their defaulted choice would be to save them time and effort and make it easy.
And why would someone mark it as wrong language? If it doesn't have words then why mark it as a langauge at all?... select none. These are strawmen problems that aren't really problems at all in my opinion.
And when someone is viewing why force them into one language... couldn't you just say ALL? It's just a simple filter.
The alternative is to have a completely Korean forum because that's what General almost is right now.
Maybe there's more of a deeper issue that you haven't expressed?
