What if we looked at this a different way to add a little perspective to the OP's problem?
If one of us wanted something that we thought we could source from Uruguay, but we didn't speak Uruguayan (Spanish?), and we found a forum in Uruguay and used "freetranslation.com" to post a question on that forum, isn't it conceivable that we may come across slightly differently on the forum than we had intended?
And....if Uruguayan forum members started making fun of our understandably poor Uruguayan/Spanish language skills, that wouldn't be nice, now would it?
Cheers,
Glen

Exactly, Common sense, at last.

Well Glenn, just a little to my background. I'm a German native and speak German, English, Dutch and and soso French.

I used your freetranslation.com no matter what I tried it never came out that "hard" and offensive --
"""assumes that a forum is to help each other not to write this stupid message. Please do not waste more time and worry about your life"""

Stupid means stupid in any country.

I see your point about the non speaking English participants on forums, but I can assure you this was an direct insult of a member here. Please read my response on page one again - he had plenty time to realize (if/when) it was a mistake.


And for triod, saying "Stop showing your ignorance and supersized American attitude
" Is like saying - sorry I'm American.
The American Attitude made this Country great, not apologizing for it.
