Why is this?

You need a Welsh moderator then. I'm actually really insulted.

The moderators have had a discussion about this. It's unfair on the other members as we cannot moderate what you say.

They're not. Remy has been told in the past he cannot post in French and he respects this rule. It's something we decided as we cannot moderate such posts.

If you post an English translation it is allowed.

That thread was the reason this rule was brought into place, and that's why the previous Welsh thread was told about this rule too.

It's a really difficult language to learn. I tried it once, and gave up after a very short time.

People speak welsh because they could be proud of country, they like the language and are traditionalists. There is nothing wrong in speaking the language.

Its pretty obvious why you cant speak Welsh on here- purely because none of the mods are welsh and you could insult us all.

Stop trying to be Mandela and sticking up for the people and just get over it...
