Seriously, it was getting tedious. I didn't remove the forums without a good reason. (All posts were absorbed into other forums, BTW.)
I would prefer finding an alternative to having any more forums added. At least in the near future.
I completely understand that. Really. The post above was just an answer to FC's suggestions, not an attempt to restart the debate. We do have some technological boundaries, I can live with that.
One thing I've learned while hanging out around here is that there is obviously a LOT of behind the scenes work for keeping a place like this running properly. I've been thinking about setting up a website for work-related stuff, but I'm worried, because I know litterally nothing about these sorts of things. But I guess neither do most of the people who set up websites, so I'll probably be in good company .
Which brings me to my last point: we are incredibly lucky for having you spending your time doing things for Legion World. We really, really, appreciate that. Thanks again.

People who are already in Legion World are generally comfortable posting in English, in most cases they prefer posting/reading in English rather in other languages.
Which makes me sorta wonder - if you have to go recruiting people from other-language sites to make it work, why not just discuss the subjects there? All this would seem to really do would be to make G&S's lives harder.

Actually, I like the idea of foriegn language threads and I encourage people to create them. (And recruiting never hurt us, either. )
But for now, I think they should be distributed throughout the board. When I have a high-speed connection, I may go back to adding forums. It never hurts to have some pre-made posts to start them off with. *hint hint*

Ich habe es gefunden, dass deutsch nicht so schwer ist, wie franzoesich und spanisch zu lernen.
