I don't think you got my meaning, sorry for being unclear. In the EU, native English speakers are a minority, obviously.

The only reason the english language is so big otherwise is the Americans. Without the Americans and on an EU server, non-native speakers (Germans, French, etc.) generally aren't going to communicate in English because they don't have to. there's no way they're going to form Linkshells and speak English within them when they can speak their own language. (Which, rightly so.)

If, hypothetically, I went -- A few might choose to speak English to explain things to me but the majority of Linkshells and parties and shouts will be non-english speaking. I don't want to sign up for that. I'd be about as isolated as if I applied to go onto a JP server if one of those ever sees the light of day.
