agree  Ian M-H (X): Sell your Google shares - it's clearly being replaced by ProZ... // You're right, of course. Perhaps a ProZ 'fix' could only allow us to ask questions if either source or target is a confirmed native language?

  -> but we've only got ourselves to blame for continuing to answer despite numerous anonymous askers with empty profiles working between non-native languages ...
agree  writeaway: Why bother Googling or doing any research-perfectly reliable professional help will be provided for free and without personal effort. this is starting to get out of hand, imho./yes, agree 100%

  -> but we'll only get anywhere if we ALL agree e.g. not to answer Qs w/o context, from anonymous askers, empty profiles non-native target language - not very realistic though as there are always enough strikebreakers
