Since the english forum is used for all languages i would like to suggest the following:

- Add a language column to your database if not already present
- For a new thread (may be under "Type") make a selection box for several langauges available a user can choose from.
- Combine the language selector on the top right side of the website with threads marked with "Language XY" (for german also combine it with the old german forum like it is right now) , so users can quickly find forum content in their language.

The english forum would not be changed in any way, though the method above would open up a way to mark and filter out certain language content. It would make it more comfortable for "readers" to read through postings in their language.

There was something like that with forums in German and French, but that idea was abandoned recently.

Major information from RL as well as threads regrading software issues and the like would still be only in English and most assistance on the forum is also provided in English.

The English forum is not used for all languages. All posts should be in English but we don't come down heavy on the odd post that isn't in English.

However, as Animagic already mentioned, we used to have switchable language forums but recently closed the others and now only maintain the English forum. For this reason it is unlikely what you suggest will be implemented but thanks for the feedback anyway.

I apologize, didnt know that. I saw german posts here and there, i am programming websites myself,
on one we have the same case vice versa, so probably thats why this came to my mind.
