I saw a request to block whole instances because they speak a different language. I say why not get some translation api like google translate or bing so that other languages could be translated?
Let's connect people like the social network that we are and not separate them :D
I had a conversation with a japanese person earlier today using google translate and it was awesome haha

@lordadamson I usually use this one: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/fast-translation/?src=api

You hi-lite the text you want to translate, then press Ctrl+Shift+L and a window pops up and it translates it.
