I received an email today and I take it is from someone on this BBS. However, it was in Chinese and even after "installing some language pack", I still have no clue what it says. I hate to discuss this here as I would rather do it off-line from the BBS, but I can't get any responses, so I am posting it here. If the admins think this is inappropriate and want to close/delete the thread, then I understand. Here is what it says: ×ð¾´µÄÏÈÉú/С½ã: ÄúºÃ!Ê×ÏȶÔÄãµÄ´ò½Á±íʾǸÒâ.±¾¹«Ë¾Ö÷Òª´úÀí¹úÄÚ¹ú¼Ê·É»úƱ,¸÷º½¿Õ¹«Ë¾µÄ´òÕÛºÍÍŶÓÌØ¼Û»úƱ.»¶Ó_²¦´ò¶¨Æ±ÈÈÏß"32060240, 32060250" ÎÒÃǽ«ÎªÄúÌṩÓÅÖʵķþÎñºÍ×îµÍµÄ¼Û¸ñ. ±±¾© 400 ¹ãÖÝ 680 ³É¶¼ 640 ´óÁ¬ 470 Ìì½ò 410 ÉîÛÚ 500 ÖØÇì 590 ÉòÑô 690 Çൺ 260 Ö麣 560 ¹óÑô 710 ¹þ¶û±õ 940 ¼ÃÄÏ 270 ÈýÑÇ 760 À¥Ã÷ 1010 ³¤´º 1280 ÏÃÃÅ 300 º£¿Ú ÄÏÄþ 890 ÎÚ³ľÆë1250 ¸£ÖÝ 240 ÉÇÍ· 570 ¹ðÁÖ 630 ÎÂÖÝ 280 Ö麣 560 ³¤É³ 360 Õżҽç 710 Ì«Ô_ 620 ±±º£ 870 Õ¿½_ 860 Î÷°² 620 Ö£ÖÝ 360 ÃàÑô 610 ÑĮ̀ 350 Äϲý 380 ºôºÍºÆÌØ 780 Ïã¸Û 1450 2640 º«¹ú 1330 2650 ¶«¾© 2120 3230 ̨±± 1800 3470 ÐÂ¼ÓÆÂ 2050 3310 °ÄÃÅ 1100 2080 ϤÄá 4110 5100 ¸£¸Ô 1680 2430 ÒÔÉÏÖ»ÊDz¿·Ö³ÇÊÐ×îµÍÌØ¼Û, ÓûÖªÆäËü³ÇÊÐ,»¶Ó_À´µç²éѯ. ±¾¹«Ë¾¿ÉÉêÇë¹úÄÚ¹ú¼ÊµÍ¼Û²Õλ.

says Yao doesn't get enough shots cause steve and cat are fatally flawed and capitalist ball-hogs and then at the end is says Long live the Yao Dynasty!!!
surprise!! This is a spam email advertising cheap plane tickets between BeiJing/ShangHai/HongKong et al. Apparently, CC BBS has been a target for spammers since lots of Chinese visit here, LOL
Thank you, smiling_bear! I thought it might be that, but I did not know for sure. Hehe - getting spam mail in another language!
In the first place, how did you know that it was in Mandarin? Could have been Japanese, Korean or what else.
I tried it in Japanese and Korean..it made absolutely no sense. the only encoding that babelfish came out with a decent translation was Chinese Simplified.
I am disrespectful to dirt! <font size=1>for the sensitive I am mocking online language translation</font>
