Question for moderators: non-english threads

I was wondering how you guys keep an eye on what is said there? I have found that on-line translators are quite unreliable. Or is it that our mods. are superheroes in disguise, with linguistics as their superpower? If i were such a superhero, i would like the name: LINGUINIMAN!:D

Hmm. I\'m not any sort of superhero (although I do insist on wearing form fitting spandex and a frilly cape), and I have to admit I don\'t keep an eye on anything over there.

Initially, I tried to, but soon realized that would be a all day job....

SO, my real ace in the hole is to just rely on our fine members to report an issue. If they do, then i\'ll try my best to figure out whats going on...or just delete it in it\'s entirety....

Sorry but Vikey\'s not really telling the truth. All the moderators are telepathic and can gain the meaning from any post. lol

Since I started approving comments I\'ve found that I can understand written French reasonably well, Spanish and Italian I can get the basis of the text. However German and Dutch I either struggle with or I\'m stuck on.
But I use Dictionary.com for the tough ones.
(Just wish it did Polish. Now that would be handy).

Well, the bits I\'ve picked up would be enough to spot abuse that\'s for sure :no:
