#120, "RE: I don't care for this idea, myself"


          

Your points are completely different. You say you don't want to institute languages, in part, because not every person of that race will speak the same language. Valg says he thinks all people of a given race should speak the same language. I'm not trying to start flaming here, but you two have completely different opinions of what makes good RP here.

I'm honestly confused how you got that from the context given.

We're both telling you the exact same thing- "speaking another language" by substituting words according to some dictionary doesn't add to the RP experience. It forces an OOC mechanism (who has a script installed to translate back and forth) over what should be an IC mechanism (your character's background should determine what IC languages are spoken).
