Dont be silly Kim if the Chinese had a clue they would have cloned the site already, we would pay discounted rake, half price buy ins and HU would be decided by a fortune cookie!
But if PR was in chinese i would give the site 1 week to live
I actually did a bit of this in a linguistics class at uni - easy credits.
Unless you propose the introduction of Esperanto(!)
I had forgotten of its existence which i guess is evidence that it doesn't really exist.. No surprise it was Volchex that put it forward!
I'd like to see English only at the tables, although as someone said i imagine if you're going to collude you would do it on messenger.
As for the forum, i wouldn't mind someone posting in a different language, but if new forums were introduced, it could dilute the dwindling traffic these forums already have, or stop this English speaking forum from growing as English speaking Europeans may choose to post in an alternative pokah forum in their own language instead of posting in this one.
I support English. German converations are much more difficult to follow, not to talk about Bulgarian or Chinese languages. Finnish would also be OK and swedish, but wouldn't be fair for others. So lets keep it in English, shall we.
Je spreche aussi Espanyol. I am amazed and impressed at the command non-native english speakers have of the language, however I have no problem with anyone using any language they wish (unless it is being used to colude of course). On a related issue, I do find the chatroom Etiquette checker intensely irritating. I frequently find a lengthy comment blocked for some reason I cannot work out. Recent examples include my location (the county of Suss3x) and an imprecation to a team mate not to pu55y foot when betting. As this also demonstrates, it is easy for the practiced to evade to checker anyway. It would be a great deal more effective to have some kind of mute facilty to block to contributions of those one does not wish to hear.
As much as I'd love danish to be the dominant language in the forums, I just have to agree with Savage on this one. Lets keep this a one-language community, IMO.
In 5-6 years, when we'll all be speaking chinese, it might be relavant to change the language. Until then, english will do just fine
