I beg to disagree. I am not in favor of the "English-only" in the chatbox. I even asked for this discussion in the backstage but no mods participated in the discussion??
I just want to post my opinion:
Yes, we are taking into consideration the other nationalities here but, isn't it nice to post in whatever language we want in the chatbox as long as it is not offensive? Yesterday, we even had a bit of indo-english-tagalog conversation at the chatbox with other members and teaching each other our own langauge
But then again, I'm just a mod, not the admin. So I'll just go with whatever the decision made/to be made.

Meng, I definitely agree with you. Personally, I kinda like having Tagalog spoken in the chatbox because it's a language that I want to learn, and hopefully when/if I have questions or whatever, people will be able to help me without the fear of being banned. And I agree that as long as it's not offensive, it shouldn't really matter. If a person really wants to join in a conversation at the chatbox, all that person has to do is say hi (even those who don't speak Tagalog) because chances are, someone else there will know English and will probably reply to that person in English.
Right?
anyway.. lots of non-filipino members in this forum just send me PM if they have problems.. and i think it's better.. why??
what if they ask what is the code for this and that in the chatbox.. and how can i reply? the code is long and wont fit in the chatbox..
sending PM is very catchy because whenever you click a link and there is a PM there will be an alert message partularly confirmation message..
and if there are non-filipino chatters they can speak in english.. because as far as i know, Filipino can speak English too.. so, it's just like this:
if somebody speaks english
reply in english
