  I'd like a translator to translate what the OP has posted!  Before you start asking for such crap maybe you should learn to speak English yourself first.  No punctuation, the incorrect use of 'thier', incorrect spelling of 'thier, and 'automaticly' is incorrect too.  See my point?  If you can't spell or use the correct grammar or punctuation, a translator won't have a clue what to do with it!

  I would suggest going back to school to learn English.  And whilst you're there you might as well learn another language... then you can translate for us all.  That said, I think I'll pass; I already know another language.

  Well sorry if i was typing fast teacher, let me translate what im thinking in french...LEAVE, GET OUT OF MY THREAD!!

  I don't think it's realistic request. Not only no translator is perfect, which will create massive misunderstandings but it will also require alot of resources.

  just my personal 2 cents.

  Very important point there. I have worked with auto translating and first problem is to detect the actual language which will be very difficult when the messages are short, the second is that the actual translation is more often than not complete nonsense, specially if the source language is not one of the biggest, like English, German, Spanish or French. 

  A friendly phrase can be turned into an insult and the other way around.

  But the most severe problem with such a solution is that the player that is auto translated will look like a total idiot :)
