HELLO FELLOW MOBSTERS
This evening I was playing in a free roll at this poker site, it's a good to play and free rolls have at most 60 to 200 players most of them sit outs at the tables depending on which free roll you play,anyway this was $50.00 free roll the last one for the night, I was doing pretty good had a good stack was moved around a couple times,then at this table there was this player who sat out most of the hands losing when he did try,then we lose a couple of players in a all in,it was nuts, anyway the 2 players are replaced with 2 others,well just by luck these players are from the same place Bogato i thinks thats spelled right, any ways these 3 players start chatting with each other in there language,then it gets interesting as to update the 2 new players the guy that was not saying much and not playing much starts playing hands raising and reraising then when the play goes heads up the other 2 new players start dropping pots the this other guy,then it gets better by this time in questioning there play,then just right there in plain text the fearless leaders tells this other 2 what he has,crazyhe starts telling them when to go allin and what to bet right there in text,now I'm chating with live support telling them whats goin on then tell me thank you and thats it with live support, a couple hands later the 2 other guys get moved or kicked off I'm not sure what happen with them. So this guy's alone again with no help from his friends he starts to lose,starts calling me names in english ....lol..... he lose's after couple more hands..........it's really true and it happened in plain view ......it's crazy crazy .......for a minute I thought of quiting online poker......but it was just for a minute...........

You only have to contact poker room support (as i see you did it) when you see this kind of cheating. I'm sure they have got a penalty because it is illegal and i HATE when some players at the tables chats non english

Dirty rotters, lol, cant say i have seen it but probably has happend, I get a little paranoid when playiing ppl who bothe have the same icon, (say like BRM) as they tend to let each outher off in pots and sometimes i think they join forces via a forum.

i have played on a few sites and i have left them for this very reason, people chatting in other languages and colluding, sng's are the worst as they can nominate a table and join forces.

I was playing a 20 man sit n go and some italians were talking in italian this guy from finland then says/ " you italians are so stupid you just said lets slow play" The Finn got knocked out by one of the Italians then he said thats it i'm reporting you all LOL
if you the colluding is bad when they chat try sitting at a sit n go when 3 players have 3 way calling on their phones last year someone i know confessed to me that is what him and two of his buddies tried to do to me it didn't worked they got busted out early. since then i don't talk to him and he not allowed at any home games i am at and not only that but they got caught trying those kind of stunts at a home game ran by a younger brother of a member of a certain {mc} club you all can guess what happen after buddy had to learn how to write with his left hand
its a freeroll, Id be surprised if support even cared, tons of collusion online, kind of scary, i know a bunch of ppl where i live that do it and make money succesfully, its dirty and I dont have the heart to collude or cheat, but it can be done quite easily, i play the game for fun and more as a hobbie, and i like to consider myself to have some skill.

I have seen this so many times in all kinds of games, even cash tables, the only thing to do is to try and be nice first, ask them to please speak english, if they get nasty or continue report them, as for sites with no online support, if you go to your main lobby the always have an option on you drop down menu somewhere an option to report players for abusive language and collusion or cheating, all poker sites take cheating very seriously even on freerolls because they have a name to keep especially after all the drama on a few poker sites!!!! cheating is not just chatting in own language but chip dumping as you mentioned, telling each others cards, soft play etc... all we can do as honest players is continually report them its in our own best interest and we are doing the majority of players a favour by reporting them, poker is supposed to be fair full stop, one of the other cheats i have seen is on some sites there are country specific or continent specific freerolls like a canadian or african freeroll and players who are not from the specified country or continent play in these this is also cheating!!!!
