    My first language isnt English and yet I still can write a proper sentence without making aberrant mistakes like those. If you buy a website that has a strong majority of English speaking users, it's simply normal to hire staff that can speak and write proper English, that's all I'm saying.

    sorry I didn't mean to sound accusatory lmao  most of the posts here seemed to be geared towards the "this is awkwardly worded" side of things and it just felt like a weird judgement of non English speakers

    which would be more jumpstarts issue than anything else, since if the comments about them hiring foreign workers to cut the cost of employees is true, they'd probably be the ones who's causing it

    can't really blame the workers for jumpstart shitting all over everything and not caring about it really.


    and it's either the lack of English speaking knowledge or staff just being inept at what they do, which is still jumpstart not hiring the right people

    tl;dr jumpstart consistently ruins everything by being thrifty

    Hmm, despite ridiculous things like bad wording, reading the editorial suggests they are actually trying to make things work. Clearing as many pet glitches as are reported, etc. etc. Whether they succeed... in any case, good for them

    This post isn't about the editorial though, I actually like it a lot since that new person took over. It's mainly just about how they wrote about it in the news, cause that sentence doesn't make any sense at all.
