Foreign Language Comments

admin I know, I know. We're just ignorant, ethnocentric, uncultured, mono-linguistic Americans living in our own little world of self-righteousness.

And because of that, you will notice an absence of comments or submissions on this site in anything other than the English language. We read every comment before approving it for the site to make sure it is relevant and appropriate. Naturally, this becomes a problem when we come across comments written in anything other than our native tongue so instead of allowing foreign language profanity or spam to slip through the cracks, our policy is to simply delete foreign language comments.

So for the person who accused us of never approving their comments because they are Filipino, we apologize for deleting your comments but want to make the point that they were not deleted because of your heritage, just our lack of comprehension of your language.

it just adds discriminations to us asians, because americans dominate the world. in the list of top tens there song be all countries involved except when stated like Best Songs, best drummers, best video games, in fact there are people in other countries that is better than slash, etc. and i suggest to put a translation bar or box in the website - ronluna

It's not because of Americans being dominant. It's because of English being the dominant language. - visitor

You should make a language translator on this site so non-English speakers can tell what we say and we can tellnwhat they say so they can post lists. - booklover1

Why not a language translator button? , rather than deleting the non-English - CerealGuy

Smart idea. - PizzaGuy

Let the non-english speakers use Google Translate for themselves. - visitor

English-Filipino Translation in the Internet is screwed up. I am a Filipino and English grammar would look bad just because of the poor translation. - visitor

What I think is that this site should have an option at the bottom to translate the whole website, including lists and comments. That way, my (and everyone else's) comments/lists could be changed to the person's native language so they have a good time enjoying the site. - BlueTopazIceVanilla

There are already services such as Google Translate that perform this function. - admin
