下面的文字可能有些粗鲁,但我还是要说。
在这个平台上,母语为汉族者的数量远超母语为英语者的数量。
不能因为你想学英语就随

意的说谎,促使英语母语者来同你交流。
即使你想交朋友,也不意味着别人立即就要同意你的要求。
不要粗鲁的对待那些没有回应你的人。
某些人对你十分陌生,无论你多想学英语或者需要外国朋友,人家也没有任何亏欠。

This might sound rude but I’m going to say it anyway.

Chinese speakers greatly outnumber native English speakers on hello talk.

Just because you want to learn English doesn’t mean you should lie about yourself to try to get English speakers to talk to you.

Even though you might want to be friends with someone doesn’t mean they will immediately agree to be friends with you.

Don’t call someone rude for not responding to your request to be friends.

Someone who is essentially a stranger does not owe you their friendship, no matter how much you might want or need a foreign friend to teach you English.

Ok. Rant over

    China is very, very big, and there are a lot of Chinese people, but there are definitely more polite people in China than rude people 😊

    Everyone who has ever been treated like this should stand out and speak. It's our right to refuse those weirdos and teach them a lesson. Just let'em know the first thing when you talk to others is being polite and respect!

    @Jack he saw a post I wrote earlier this week asking if anyone was looking for an English speaker for a job that wasn’t teaching English. He contacted me saying he might have a job but first wanted me to tell him about myself and wouldn’t tell me about the job he said he had. Then after I told him about myself, he said he just wanted to be my friend and talk to me in English. I told him he misrepresented himself to get me to talk to him and he started to insult me, calling me unfriendly and insane, because he was “just trying to help.”

    @Jack it doesn’t matter. I blocked him. He’s probably a nice person who didn’t like that I wasn’t entirely pleasant to him. He said he wanted to help but really he was trying to get something for himself. I get contacted by new people every day and can’t respond to everyone. He probably thought it would be a way to start a friendship or to delineate himself from everyone else. He was probably just surprised I wasn’t responding positively. It just happens a lot to me, so it’s frustrating sometimes. I don’t have a lot of time here to actually talk to everyone because of 时差.

    一方面这个APP中国人很多,会碰到很多其它交流APP都会碰到的问题就是“让人觉得粗鲁冒犯”;另一方面英语母语的人在这个APP上有没有享受到一些受汉语母语者热情追捧的虚荣呢?所以申明自己的态度,对那些冒犯者直接忽略,对那些骗子点举报。最后建议此APP设置拉黑功能。

    I understand your pain. But as a chinese, we also used to face alot of lier that are using US flag. They flirting girls on this app, some of them were very disgusting. They cheated girls by using english, because like you said too many peoples need to learn english. What we can do? Left this app? Or keep complaining? Of course we'll share our pain, we'll block them, but just we still have to keep on.

    没有看太多评论,但是看完那条你的回复,说有个人要你介绍完自己再告诉你你要的信息,然后就不想告诉你了,不履行自己的承诺,只想找你学英语!对于这种事,这样的人,我只想说,不仅是中国人,哪里都有,不要让这样的人来错误让你对中国人有什么误解!我觉得这样的人就是人品有问题,做人本身就有问题,你完全无需理会,说好的做人的诚信呢,他完全没有!he is so rude to u, then u can definitely choose to IGNORE him, 这个词我还用了大写,你知道是什么意思吧!我看过你的评论,这样的人让我也很烦,烦躁!只能说,可能没有遇到对的人,哪怕是聊天,所以希望你不要介意,其实我们大部分人其实还是很好的!

    还有一点,就是我们是把英语作为第二语言来学习,我觉得很多朋友可能觉得语言的学习仅仅只是语言本身的学习!我觉得这绝对不够的,learning a language is not about language itself, it's also about culture.还记得你有一个帖子说你过生日,结果有中国人没有跟你评论生日快乐,反倒是有个人说你鼻梁高很好看!这个在我们的文化中,是一件很平常的事,我们看到别人身材好,个子高,外貌好看我们会情不自禁去夸,然而对于你们而言,就像你说的,外貌是父母给的,没必要去评论, 评论了也改变不了什么,这确实是,但是这也是我们文化的一部分,所以很多misunderstand是因为文化差异造成,充分了解对方的文化,在沟通交流中确实可以避免一些问题的存在!所以我知道it's unpolite to comment on your appearance, I try to avoid talking about that.

    Sorry to hear these. But if someone was so rude or offensive to you, just report. Although this app is run by a Chinese team, I am sure they know how respect people from different culture, and maintain a good environment.
