The reason we can't allow anything else than English on these boards so far, is not that we are ignorant towards the realities of different languages, but more the realities of what kind of community personnel we have to take care of said languages.
We can't allow a mixed languages forum, as it would only frustrate the majority of users to jump into a thread and then they don't understand it. Even if the Germans are welcomed here, they still have to stay in the German subforums, if they want to talk German. They are welcome to talk everywhere else, as long as they post in English. Additionally the Germans are in a special position, because so far they had their own separate forum under http://forums-de.anarchy-online.com and we want to encourage them to come over here, embrace their new one, meet the rest of the players from RK1/RK2 in the forums, while still giving them the opportunity to have their own place to meet up.
I am sure, if we would have a Russian/French/Spanish CM or whatever, we would not hesitate to create a subforum in here, if the amount of players in said language shows that it is needed. But right now we only have english and german speaking CMs.
I hope you understand now, that we really don't want to insult anyone/cut someone short by keeping the english-only rule alive in here, but it's meant to improve overall communication between players.
Thanks for your understanding.
Cheers,
Waldgeist
