Nah, there's no need to block him, just try talking to him for real. It scares him off because he has zero comprehension of the language.
I found you can do very short yes /no conversation but nothing outside of that. There's is absolutely no point being mean-spirited about it.

Depends whether you believe he's truly just struggling to get the hang of the site though.

It's not the site so much it's understanding anything that's written within the site. :lol: He's getting the idea of some of the threads but just doesn't have enough language skills to contribute outside of agreeing with you - which is what he does when he quotes you for no reason but doesn't add anything. You simply can't have a conversation with him because the skill set isn't there yet. Looks like he just wants to be a part of something.
I thought he was about 9 but he's got a mobile device and he's from Ghana so I'd bump the age up. But I've not seen one genuinely dickhead / troll-ish thing he's done yet.

It's becoming annoying though that when you go to read a new post in a thread that you have participated in and all it turns out to be is a previously read post just quoted. I understand that it's his agreement, but come on, there must be some form of input surely? Even in broken english, we should be able to get the point? I mean he can understand reading english enough to quote the posts, but can't write in english, I'm not buying that.

Can we just move this thread to somewhere else? Like miscellaneous or something?
'Worried about members' on Introduce Yourself board, doesnt seem right.

If this is such a problem, I'll go ahead and unblock the guy. But I will have it on the record - I'm not buying it. I'm referring to this whole persona thing.

Look at this way, if he's a troll, he's an extremely ineffective shit one. :lol:

Ali : It been long time to hear about you. How are you doing. Me : I am good, thanks. How are you? Are you looking forward to the FA cup game this weekend against Sheffield United? Ali : I am doing well. ----------------------------------------------- New message coupla days later: Ali : My friend edwood long time no message Me : Hi Ali, How much English do you understand? Are you using Google translate? Ali : Keep calm Me : I am calm Do you understand what I am saying? Ali : I understand what you said Me : How old are you, Ali? Ali : please is something falling apart Me : No, nothing is wrong Just making conversation Ali : Ok End of pm's

Yeah, mine goes something like that as well...except me trying to explain how the forum works and him asking me to be his friend.

The help with navigation on the forum is a available and has been offered, I dunno anymore with his latest...repetitiveness to a fault at this stage and oblivious to help? It has to be a wind-up surely? He can read english, but can't write in english....nah!
