Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Doesn't this forced conformity just smack of becoming just another sheeple, Metachrosis?
Again, the hypocrisy is sickening.

But if an American moves to China I would hope to heck he wouldn't expect everyone to start speaking English, and worshiping his God and allowing him to continue to live by American laws. I think immigrants can reasonably be expected to follow some degree of conformity. No, they do not have to give up their cultural heritage but the natives of the country he moved to shouldn't have to give up theirs just to make him happy either.
I can't imagine any sane leader of a country making this speech unless they were some sort of dictator. Yeah, it would get a lot of support from a lot of people but the fallout from the rest of the world would be unimaginable.

I think most immigrants try and learn language and customs here. My wife who is fairly fluent in French told me that if she called a French speaking company she would be hoping they had an English line because French is not her native language.
