English everywhere then? It always mystifies me that the RMTs continue blindly using English on servers where the English-speaking population is tiny (and mostly made up of people from non-English-speaking regions who have settled on English out of necessity).

It's a pity that the thread the OP is talking about was closed (and that it attracted several dumb replies). I can see why S-E don't like it because it's hard for them to moderate if unsupported languages are spoken - it becomes one poster's word against another's - but it's nice to see smaller communities sprouting up and finding one another.

I imagine S-E have plenty of statistics showing where everyone is connecting from in spite of their client language. They won't know for sure how many of each group speak which languages proficiently, but they'll probably have a rough idea. The recent Fan Fest poll for the European region also gave them some data about a small subset of supported languages and how widely used they actually are within the community.
