Maybe we should make sure new members actually speak english. Is there any way to do this that isn't difficult/inconvenient?

We have openly declaired this to be an American English speaking site. It seems that people just don't get the message. Oh well It's stated in the rules and they should have read them.

Interesting, you didn't hear the complaints from the Russians that we were being "Nazis" for not allowing long discussion written in CYRILLIC on imfdb. One of them actually argued with us, proclaiming that there have been 'no spammers writing in Cyrillic on the site' and that we're being unreasonable for wanting all the messages in a language most of us can actually understand.

Also, just because we've had a few problems with "foreigners" lately does not mean that we're going to block them all out. You are encouraging a ridiculous (dare I say retarded) over-reaction to a minor problem, which would only introduce a host of new problems for those of us who are Admins. And as for increasing the number of Admins; in order to become an Admin, a person has to have contributed a substantial body of work (all matching our quality criteria) before they can be nominated. We don't need to start implementing Soviet-style bureaucratic control every time we have a couple users who give us problems. And personally, I'd prefer that people stop suggesting this kind of shit whenever we do.

Also, imfdb is a much smaller site, with a very specific focus. It's simply not necessary to have the website open to every single person on the planet. My idea might even reduce the workload of the admins. If the application process is automated in some way to screen out obviously poor applications, the number that are actually viewed by human beings would be minimal. Additionally, with a better ratio of good contributors, there would be a reduced amount of poor or malicious submissions. |

I have to disagree with this suggestion. If it was a rule in place when I registered, I wouldn't be here.
