hello everyone how are you? i hope you are doing all the best!
i want to say that we need some languages because there are such people around the world wanna see more than 1 language on this website (instead of default EN/DE) why not add such popular languages like French, Arabic, Russian etc... i guess people should help too.. well we are here always for the help anytime, because we love US thank you for reading and hope this is a good idea
@ Alpha Beta: yes of course
But also another languages wil be a good way to make this website understandable by everyone around the world! also it would be nice to see your language you use to talk everyday here!
I think this has already been requested here and, like before, I'm pretty sure DC won't put the website in other languages besides his own, German, and English.
@ medeiros: i guess yes, this was requested but before like 10 years from now.. XD, and i just wanna give it a try and see if DC like the idea, this would be nice isn't it?
Indeed this is a good idea, yet still a major problem to face: who is doing the translations?
Just for understanding: DC (admin of this page) is the only one who makes general announcements. He speaks German and English.
A translator would have to be voluntary (mostly reduction in quality, heavy delay) or professional (costs money and also: reduction in quality - depends on the costs)
It is likely that this page remains available only for the current available languages.
@ TimeQuesT: we know right that @ DC: understand only DE and EN but he can maybe do a announcement for example to tell US forum users for help to translate on some specific languages
There is one huge issue with that: In Germany you are responsible for all content that is on webpages you own. That's why DC doesn't allow content in other languages, as he himself can't make sure that the content is legal and he won't get in trouble for it. I can fully understand that, I also wouldn't feel good hosting a forum in a language I don't understand because I don't want any legal trouble.
@ ohaz: ohh for real? this is a big problem.. but maybe he can use moderators that know other languages to check that the sumbits are correct so he don't be in any troubles
Like ohaz already explained this comes with legal problems. I'm not willing to accept content on this website that I can't easily evaluate myself. Moreover the immense effort of maintaining additional languages is simply not worth it and not realistic. I can't do that. Sorry.
