I realize some of us do not speak English as a first language and I can add language packs to the forum to make your stay here a little easier. So what languages would you like to see? There are over 54 packs that I can download but I would like to keep it to the minimum needed.

So if English isn't your first language, let me know what is and I'll see what I can do to add your language to the forum.

Would the posts be translated into English as well? It seems that otherwise, many of us couldn't respond or share in the discussion.
Ignore any virtue-signaling; it's clearly just you.

Ignore any activism; it clearly doesn't exist.

Be very careful!
Don't be indoctrinated!
Ignore your common sense!

Everything is entirely normal and ignore the radical changes to culture.

Considering the 2 answer's above, how about these choices:
Alieniese (the language from the mutants/aliens in futurama)
Goa'uld or Ancient (Some languages from stargate)
Simlish (the language ea games created for the early sim copter and the recent "the sims games"

The board is in English. This would be a translation only that user could read and it doesn't apply to the content, meaning the posts. It applies to the static text like "Quick Reply" "Subject" "Contact Us" Phrases of that nature.

Gotcha. Thanks for the clarification.

Given the lack of any other serious requests, maybe throw Russian in?

I thought I'd bump this as in spite of some of the flippant replies it is a serious point to try and help members get the most out of this site and I would also like to make the following appeal

If there are any members out there with a variety of language skills who wouldn't mind helping out any non English speakers on this forum in whatever is their native language, could you please pm me with the details of what you speak and then if any new members in future join and have difficulty understanding the board or finding their way around or indeed have problems making themselves understood perhaps you could help them out.

So please pm me if you don't mind aiding a newbie in whatever language you have. I will then get any future members in difficulty to pm you and hopefully you can help them out. I myself speak fluent drunk and also the language of lurve, so those two are taken.
How strange are the ways of the gods ...........and how cruel.

I am here to help one and all enjoy this site, so if you have any questions or feel you are being trolled please contact me (Hit the 'CONTACT' little speech bubble below my Avatar).

It's a sad day when I'm the voice of reason on this site but seriously I think that you should at least cover Spanish and French as options.

You may now return to the silliness.

How about Kardashian. Do you have a language pak for that?

I took Spanish, French and German as a given but perhaps MH could confirm what he has gone for/is going for given this thread was started quite a while ago

2 Spanish 5.85%
3 English 5.52%

Well, I didn't do anything. I just saw there were language packs lying around on the developer board I thought we might install a few. But I decided against it.

Spanish, french, german

All pretty close to english and posts can be google translated if you're curious about what is going on
