        Any chance that this can be translated into English?

        I have absolutely no idea what the hell he's going on about.

          I thought it was just me - I don't understand a word of it either.

            Due to the poor grammar and spelling of the original message, I am also unable to interpret the meaning of the post.

            I can try to hazard a guess at the implied message or communication, however the whole point of written communication is to be explicitly clear and convey your message appropriately.

            Consequently, guessing would be just as meaningless as the original message.
            Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

              I took the original text and used Babel Fish to translate it to Korean, and then back to English.

              It's much clearer now......

              "To propose k contracts of 10 in what kind of thing me, pay' Only after IV is me in compliance with invoiceing brigton Quality building services is contacted; d it for 2.5% " The whole was going until thy where is demanded £200 payment falling things for like this well; admin" This acclamation plunder is I who fraud say that wears out"
