Side message them if we speak the same language and explain what I'm doing or pretend the encounter never happened.

I have respect for people that speak more languages than I do, but things being the way they are around here, English is the preferred language on the server & for better or worse, in order to RP here, one has to have enough command of the english language to get by.
I personally try my best to give people the benefit of the doubt when I notice a language barrier, but at the same time, if I had a nickel for every yahoo that played that card to then only cuss me out in perfect english after I fired upon them...well, y'all can do the math.
I basically treat it on a case-by case basis & sometimes I get burned for it, & other times I fire upon those that are legitimate...such is the nature of the beast.
Like it or not, ya simply gotta be fluent enough in the preferred language to get by & properly RP around here, or at least be smart enough to keep your head down & not attract undue attention until your language skills improve.

When I joined Discovery I was one of those. But years of chatter, RP and skype talks taught me English.

I say, we should give them the chance. Perhaps they want to learn English that way, by contacting players inside the game and scrolling through forums. Eleven years ago I hadn't not know much English, despite having it at school (I used to have French in Primary and Secondary, with English as second foreign language), and I joined some sort of roleplaying graphical chat (Furcadia, was it?), spending some time in there, watching and learning how other people were roleplaying. I do not deny school helped me in understanding basics, but it was contact with other people that made me more fluent in that language. Hell, damn good times.
The funniest thing is, Freelancer was one of the very first games which made me actually listen to the voices as subtitles were not included (oh the glorious voice of Jennifer Hale).
