I noticed in my first post (to introductions) that my gender neutral greeting "Hi blokes" (which will probably be translated by the dumb software here) was turned into the much less neutral "Hello Blokes" - a rather laddish and inappropriate greeting in my view. (OK, I'm an old fogey, but language matters.)
I note that ths site is built using SMF so I took a look at the simpleminds site and the documentation for SMF itself. That documentation suggests that there are plenty of ways of adding to or modifying language themes, and indeed strings within themes, so someone, somewhere, has taken the concious decision either to make this rather annoying autotranslation or to allow a possibly default autotranslation to remain.
Can one of the mods please explain why?
Cheers
