English speaking only?
« on: August 20, 2009, 23:34:51 PM »
Most servers have this, do we? If not I think we should. I think we should because it brings players together more, having a 'universal language'. If people are speaking their native tongue and we have say some people playing from up to 3/5 countries during peak times; then that is a lot of saturated talk, that does not work for the good of the team or the general atmosphere of the server.

I don't have a problem with foreigners talking to people in their normal language on our server, however during a peak time period it should be english only. I think the peak time should be considered from 3pm to 3am..3pm because we should be aiming to have the community active from this time (if not earlier) and aim to get the kiddies in after school (before dad comes home and wants some gamage), ending the peak time at 2am, to give plenty of time for the server to not be busy.

Anyway, just wanted to put it out there and see what everyone else thinks.

thanks :)

I don't think it's really that much of a problem on our servers, most of the time people do speak english and if they don't it's only Deviland or someone being a dick in portuguese.

I've never really heard many people talking other languages, if there were more then i would understand the need for it.

I feel more comfortable with 'preferred'.
