@Mark_R & @HostMyBytes I sincerely hope you guys are referring to his broken "English" and not to Spanish.

I am myself an Spaniard (yeah, no burritos here) and would take offense of the latter.

if you find what im writing offensive in any way then that is your problem and not mine, feel free to comment on it but do not expect me to take it seriously.. you think something is offensive and another person might thinks the total opposite of that - we all have our own levels of tolerance and i do not plan on satisfying everyone.

I only speak English and Danish fluently, but also found the comment offensive. Not because it wasn't funny, but because it was a put-down and personal. I expect people to just try their best with English. It is, after all, the language of this board. That said, I do get the impression that the OP is doing the best he can with this language and find it totally acceptable. As for his comment in Spanish, well its not that hard to understand. Most English speakers should be able to figure it out - or just do a quick cut/paste into Google translate - that's a basic computer skill in this day and age of the international internet.

Thank you for this. The site developer is taking a look, and I'll follow up with you via PM once fixed to see if there are any further issues. Sig also fixed.

I am sorry if you took offense to this. I myself speak Spanish conversationally, and I saw the comment thinking it was a funny way to make light of a situation.

As for the client, he has already been issued a refund, so there seems to be little point in further discussion here about identity politics & the misrepresentation of Spanish speaking people.
