I agree on the first part and I also fail to understand how a user unable to understand a language can become moderator for a community speaking it. It sounds so unreal, yet so real due to real life examples.
Apart from that, theorically speaking, if no restriction was put in place and it was confirmed, upon asking, that I could post in any language I want in any of the comms, then I could probably ignore an admin telling me to stop just because he can't understand.
I know I could be a dick, but why should I stop? I might not get any reply today, but get one the next week.
...and I just realised that takes me back to the starting point.
