If you're going to rules-lawyer, have a peek at the
rules first.
While the discourse that takes place in this forum is generally in English, there's nothing against the rules about people conversing in other languages. The rules prohibit misconduct regardless of language. It is generally nice when people stick to the lingua franca of the forums,
yes, but as long as it's on-topic then it's not technically bad.
Either way, it's worth noting that a thread
restricted to the use of a language other than English would have a very small number of posts, since I'm fairly certain that the majority here are anglophones. But I doubt anyone would be posting on these forums if they
didn't know English, otherwise it'd probably be difficult to know what the posts are saying. And I think it's much more helpful for communication if you ask someone to repeat what they typed in English if they typed in some other language, rather than to trail off with "This is English speaking forum...".
Please be respectful to users of languages other than your own, or to people who have difficulty with a particular language.
Anyway, Lum is a noted polyglot amongst us. He's well aware that the forums are generally in English.
