Posted: Mon Mar 10, 2008 4:50 am Post subject: Chinese banned from PC bang? |
|
|
In the place I'm working(and set to leave in a couple of days) there's a PC bang that I've gone to about a dozen times, and today there was a sign in Chinese that I'm sure I read right. It said(to the best of my knowledge) that Chinese people were forbidden from entering. There are many 3D workers here but I assumed most were Indonesian or Filippino.
I'm not a newbie but I've never come across this before. Anyone else come across this? Also, if anyone can write Chinese(I can read some but write little) can they write the message, if they have the computer capacity to do so, as I've related? I can read the Chinese for "Chinese people", "enter/exit" and "forbidden".
Nope, ain't makin' this up. |

| I used to use a PC room used by Chinese, and they seemed to be in the habit of downloading dodgy programs full of viruses which meant that many of the computers were often unusable. I suspect this is probably the case with this PC room. |

I think this was posted last year. It had somethng to do with the language packs. After the customer leaves the pc bang has to change the language pack back to korea. I think that is why?  |

When I said honor I meant it more on the order of the welcome banner
over the school gate on your first day kind of honor. |

My Chinese is pretty ordinary, know a few characters and my Grammar is pretty non-existent but did it say something like this:
中國人不入
or 中國人不要进入 |
