English Only
Been getting loads of neomails from people in brazil blabbering in their own language. Question is, would it be offensive if i stuck a brazillian flag with a big X over it that said English Neomails Only? :P Obviously the canadian flag isnt working too great since i now get french mails too. (or they're just trolling for fun)

Yeah TNT probably wouldn't like that very much and honestly I do not think that would stop it anyway. The only thing that would is to make it where only neofriends could contact. I just do not want to do that so I delete all of the ones that are not in English.

"Solo en ingles, por favor." should clear up the Spanish ones but I don't know any Portuguese. Although some will inevitably neomail you in a foreign language anyways just to try and be annoying.

Bara ignorera några mail på andra språk. Om samma person upprepar post på ett annat språk, blockera dem bara :P 0:-) Just ignore any mails in other languages. If the same person repeat mails in a different language then just block them :P ___________ [color=gray]Kirsty, aka evil super mod[/color] [size=11][i]Sniper, maller, restocker Silverdragon siggy stealer Best wearables shop owner ever![/i][/size]

I get about 1 or so a month and I use this translator: http://translation2.paralink.com/lowres.asp I know that was NOT the point but it will translate whatever response you want to send them as well so they understand, "no speekie Spanish!" ~ Mimi ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~ Mimi's Ménagerie ~ http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=temps_bons&misc

On that note google has a great translator too :P I admit, I cheated, my swedish is getting better, but not quite up to the standard of what I wrote above. Well, it probably is, but would have taken me ages to write. I think most languages are on google. If im bored I reply to different languages in swedish, confuse them too 0:-) ___________ [color=gray]Kirsty, aka evil super mod[/color] [size=11][i]Sniper, maller, restocker Silverdragon siggy stealer Best wearables shop owner ever![/i][/size]

I don't think the people who are writing in foreign languages actually make it to your user page or they would know you speak English as the entire lookup is in English so I doubt posting anything there is going to help. I just delete them all.

Actually i have a counter that tracks visits on my neomail page using #VISITOR. and alot of them first click on the neofriend button with the &NF_request (sorta like the &banner thing) Then they go back and click on the send neomail button which ALSO leads to that same page but with the &SendNeomail suffix. Then maybe a minute later, i get the gibberish. So I know they see the canadian flag blah blah blah, etc But obviously, they're not clicking the neomail link at the bottom of that page since I changed that into a tiny image. They're probably manually typing in my username in the Send neomail button, which is fun since now they have to work abit in order to beg.
