Making/Forcing other users/moderators to go through hoops such as translating posts should not be a practice that is encouraged unless the mechanics of the game (like in the No Ingles game) dictate otherwise.
Foreign languages, invisible text, unreadable fonts (like wingdings), etc. should not be allowed in mafia games as it impairs the quality of the game without offering any significant benefits.
I really don't see why this is even a question to ask (and asking your question in Wingdings simply highlights my point -- I had assumed it was just a random string of characters that constituted spam.)

It breaks the spirit of Invisible Text which requires the user to go through hoops to understand what a post means rather than being able to tell at a glance. In fact, your example is worse than invisible text as you have to use an off-site source to read the text. Not cool.- Ircher

lBreadcrumbing is the only exception to cryptography, and it is well-known and has proper reasoning behind it. - Ircher
