Practice makes perfect. Using google translate to pre-record some messages does not.

Google translate rather used right in game, pre-record messaged made with revers-context, for bigger quality)

Anyway, this is bullshit, will only slow engaging dynamic and interactions. Rise enter level for non-english players.

There were clear time restrictions for 2 lines, not? Why indeed preset messages become bad?

Back to macros that perform the equivalent job we go, I suppose.

Perhaps the new team will recognize that the type of person who uses setmessages will use them regardless of whether or not they're a built-in functionality.

If you can't speak English without setmessages, you need to find another game to play. You don't contribute to the RP environment of the server if you don't speak the language.

All in all, punishing the masses for a few bad apples suck.

Having to actually type your messages is punishment to you?

No, but imagine this. I'm in a scummy mood after a bad day at work, or I'm just the average Discovery trader. I decide to go powertrade. I'm stopped by a pirate, and continuously attempt to cruise from the interaction. Now that the pirate has to stand around and type messages for my silent, non-RPing ass, I get away, having returned no interaction for his attempt. You've made it easier for people to get away, and opened an opportunity for some silent munt to report a pirate because the messages "weren't long enough."

It hasn't worked before, it won't work again.
