Yeah, I agree on the Spanish issue, 95% of the board do not understand a single word in Spanish. Trouble is, I read it, get the gist and don't even think about it.

From this day onward, unless it cannot be written in English, it will not be written in Spanish, so sayeth DR1!

Cris, you might know another one that is quite popular with the jocks. AZB might like it since he prefers the young chicas "If there's grass on the field, then PLAY BALL!"

You mean to tell me you live in DR and you don't know Spanish?

How do you like Dominicans that come to the US and live for years and don't make an effort to learn the language?

If you're going to engage in a forum about DR and live in the DR, learn our language the way we learned yours!

I am very highly upset at that and disappointed in you guys that posted that!

I don't take no crap with that subject! I went to all kinds of discrimination here in the US...ESPECIALLY IN THE MILITARY!

I won't take that feces from any of you!

Then call the forum another name!!!

Call it EXpat dot com or something!!!

How can you forbid Dominicans in this forum to speak or write Spanish?

Please take your shallowness elsewhere!

Robert, you being a moderator? You should be ashamed!!!

Nathan - I sent you a Private Message, I'm feeling particularly generous and compassionate this evening. Plus I didn't want to hijack the thread

If anyone doesn't understand, I'll translate, ok? I know there are people not living in the DR and come into the forum to get a feel of the place. Now, let's back into the main subject, SEX. Much moe fun to talk about that.

Yes, Sir, we'll go back to insults and sex, in English. That's a lot better than abrazos=hugs. After all DR1 is your site and you make the rules. BTW, forgive me for this comment, I don't want to hick jack the thread either.

Nathen, no problem!

For a few others, let me quickly explain.

DR1 is a site based in English and focused 100% to the English speaking market. That's how we have marketed ourselves for the past 6 years, and that's how we will continue to market ourselves in the forcible future.

95% of our site visitors do not speak Spanish as a first language and I would guess that 90% of the 95% do not speak Spanish, period. Also, 99% of our traffic/visitors comes from outside of the DR.

Esta claro para ti?

Please, let's get back on topic...
