Language barrier? Please read...

Looking at the stats for this forum, I realized over 30% of our users are from countries where english is not the native langauge. Given that, how many of you would like me to open up sub forums for language specific (German, French, etc). Please let me know if this is a issue...

I speak spanish, but I prefer english only, because it's universal and everybody can participate... If there are subforums for specific languages, some helpful post will be lost because we can't read them...

In order to do that, you'd need mods who can speak the languages. Otherwise who know's what is posted? Could be liblous, rude etc etc. It will also reduce the support on offer considerably.

Normally if people come across an english site, they know that they should post in english. Users equally should be mindfull that an unclear post may simply be due to 'broken english', and be respectfull that the poster may not be 100% with english and may require more specific help (go here, then click that, you will see x etc)
