    Regional Forums

    Hi Guys. I just wanna ask if it would be possible to start some regional forums as a small gimmick. For example for some states in the USA an some countrys of europe. And some spanish and french and italian and so on... so regional people can find themselfs easier.

    Regards

    Robert

      If we have foreign section with different languages, we won't be able to moderate them as we'll have no idea what's being discussed. This is an English speaking forum and if people want to join in, well I'm sorry you'll need to speak English. I know some members are not great with English but we respect the fact that they try.

        You're absolutly right! But in some points, especially in some "how to get it running" questions its better sometimes to be able to discuss in mother tongue.

        Dont need any software share topics in some other languages - only some documentation work is easier on this way.

        Hope you know what i mean

          seen this on a fair few forums and the results are mostly the same ... unused sections with next to no posts

          One forum i used to mod on had 12 international sections that had around 60 posts in a year 49 of them made by me
