Chinese players in Nost

[Orcduck]

I was questing with 3 chinese players yesterday - whenever they talked, I couldn't see any of their words on their screen. Only one could speak English, and it was pretty broken and took him a while to respond

I asked them how big the chinese population was on Nost, and they all agreed the server's population had a decent chunk of chinese players.

How many exactly? None of us know but maybe, this could be the reason why some players don't respond to PMs and hence seem like "bots"?

I think there are 2 Chinese guilds on the alliance side.

The reason you can't see Chinese in your chatbox (hence the blank messages) is because you do not have Chinese fonts installed in your WoW client.

Funny, I just found out about Chinese players on this server, not in a good way, and made this post about it:

Aaaah. You PLA guys are Chinese! That explains all.

I have been wondering who you were because you guys are by far the worst battleground players I have come across on horde side.

Every time I end up in a bg-team with several PLA members I know it will be a terrible loss and there is nothing I can do to stop it because communicating with these PLA people is impossible.
I have even been wondering if you were a guild of bots: no communication at all and always just running straight for every alliance you see, not caring about bg-objectives (flags). But now I get it, you are Chinese. Meaning: many of you can't speak/understand English.
I just don't understand why you suck so bad in battleground tactics. Not a good advertisement for the Chinese.

If you want to communicate with them you might as well learn chinese, you can't really expect people to know english just because most eu/us speaks it. Bad players is individual case, even though I'm not chinese I can name you a couple that are not bad players at all and actually are really nice guys. So stop the hate and form the premade for bgs, that will hopefuly ease your pain.

all of the PLA guys I've played with were very friendly, and you can't expect them to do well in BGs when they've all told me they have 400-750 ping

>750 ping

That's pretty rough. Most of them are pretty nice guys, but not much point in BGs at that ping.

Using on public chans a different language than English is strictly forbidden. Nostalrius chose english as its only language to avoid the problems we are talking about in this thread.

500 ping? But what about pong?

also this thread obviously needs more Summergale:

Not true. I met a Chinese player over in Emerald Dream that explained Pinyin to me.

Pinyin, or Hanyu Pinyin, is the official phonetic system for transcribing the Mandarin pronunciations of Chinese characters into the Latin alphabet in the People's Republic of China, Taiwan (Republic of China),[1] and Singapore. It is often used to teach Standard Chinese and a pinyin without diacritic markers is often used in foreign publications to spell Chinese names familiar to non-Chinese and may be used as an input method to enter Chinese characters into computers.
