Default Foreign Languages in the Chatline

In a 20+2 multi last night two guys were talking in a language I thought was probably Farsi. Some folks were suspicious of them, but the chatters were dismissive of their complaints: "he's my cousin" etc.

I dont know Farsi, but a little knowledge of the roots of Indo-European languages allowed me to pick up a lexicon pretty quickly. They went on for awhile, until I was confident that I had the translation down, and then I began posting what they were telling each other (shah seh= king three) and the directions the stronger of the two was giving the weaker. They stopped, posted a few obscenities, and both busted about 3 hands apart.

I sent an email to Party with HH and descriptions last night. Their accounts were closed this morning. Hope Party was able to confiscate their rolls.

If any of you was still playing and was benefiting from having it figured out also, sorry I butted in; I wanted to level things and didnt think of that possibility at the time.

Another day, another new depth of stupidity. Makes me wonder, did they know each other or did they meet on party? Why not use AIM if you're gonna do that.

I always respectfully say "english only please" and usually get ignored or told to shut up. Then I tell them I'll tell party. Nice to see they got punished.

Anyone know what happens with the winnings of the offenders in these circumstances?
