Maybe the texts are just as idiotic as some of the English ones "like me,add me!!!!!!"
it could say anything, like "the winged ape flies over the apple trees" :rolleyes:

Just wanted to say, that's the third time I've read a post by you and thought, how refreshing, a voice of reason.

ask the person who started the thread, why ask me? it clearly bothers her else she wouldnt have started this thread. if you didn't read what she wrote, she said "My opinion.... Don't like it... Can't translate it... Don't know what's being posted." funny you chose to reply what i wrote instead.

As long as they help and sell items, I am satisfied!

Lol!!
Yes I agree

let's NOT be racist in a virtual game played by people all over the world.

and let's NOT give more proof to the view that native English speakers feel superior to all other languages for no reason.?

If ya can't read the language, it is a good time to teach yourself how to use google translate. I know for a fact my friend learned to communicate with her follower in Turkish, using her farm title, and google translate!

hurray for technology!

and if it REALLY bothers you, it is time to take a foreign language class to make yourself feel better.

and how would SC feel if their customer base in China complained, HEY I can't see my name in the farm title? And I want my name there?

I believe she typed the farm title into google translate. You can add all languages in the iPhone and any apple device (settings, languages, keyboard etc). It's a great way to learn new languages!

It doesn't matter if it's in other characters :) Before were you able to read everything in Dutch, Spanish, French, Turkish? Sure, they use latin alphabet, but it doesn't mean I would be able to read it :)

Omg that is the funniest thing I have read here ... I want a t-shirt with "Please help my boat!!!" Written in all the different languages :)

Thanks for the laugh...help my boat...hahahaha!!!!!

I like that folk can use their own language/characters ingame if they want to - I now know the word for farm in so many different languages and that tickles me tbh. I like learning new things, even if they have no relevance whatsoever to my daily existence it's still something I didn't know before...and being the simple kinda gal I am it makes me happy ;)

I'd like to be able to read what the farm names are.....I've learned the word "farm" in several languages now....
I don't have any of those characters on my device.... Plus its not okay to use inappropriate language...how do I know if they are....wouldn't be fair ( not that anyone seems to monitor farm names, my 10 yr old has seen some beauties).
