Jeez, Cloud, if you really look at my comment, you'll see that:
1) My question was to Yao, a long-time poster here and someone I have
had exchanges with before, so I felt I could ask him how to politely
address this issue.
2) I did not "shoot the poster" but asked a how I could politely ask
posters to be more clear when a post had no English,
3) I actually said myself that the info was in the "0" file - "I went
back and looked and did see in a rather obscure "0" file
that it showed only German and Hebrew...", so I'm not sure why you're
telling me I didn't read the file when I admitted that I failed to
read it. I will say that an "nfo" or "inf" file is quite helpful.
4) I also wrote " I don't want to appear ungrateful" implying that I
was grateful for the post.
5) It seems quite harsh and even violent to suggest that I kill myself
because I asked how I could politely request posters make non-English
movies more obvious. It seems to me that this is a group of people
being kind and helpful to each other and to respond in this way to my
request for help seems extreme. I know that you're a nice guy, and
have good intentions, and I truly appreciate your posts, but maybe you
read too much into my post.
