This is almost undoubtedly the result of a GT automated translation. Or at least this is what it sounds to an italian mother tongue.
If it were a blind test, I would have reported this message to the moderator as automated translation.


I’m porting here (no Google translated implied though) something I wrote on my local board, regarding the issue of automated translations. To this regard, it’s a fact that there is an existing (non-official) rules that states that automated translations are not allowed on local boards. I do not know the full implications of breaking the rule are for the rule breaker, besides moderators possibly moving to delete posts of the kind.
<...>

I think it's no secret I fell into this rule a few times.
It is down really down to the attitude of the board moderator, who, in my opinion, dictates the board-specific rules everyone has to adapt.

Of course my message were not paid translation, but only a courtesy post in local boards where my threads got translated.
I think using GT for paid services is a unfair, disqualifying and unethical practice, even before an explicitly forbidden one.
