PC Worldwide Project

Post by timoo »

Hey!
In case you don't know well the history of PC, let me remind you that both German (2003) and Dutch (2006) forums were created, but eventually deleted because of inactivity. It seems quite clear that bringing them back or creating categories for other languages will end up the same way, but it makes PC too selective for worldwide users.
This is why I thought we could create single topics for all languages spoken here (except English and French). We would just need one trustworthy native speaker per topic, so this person can make sure no dangerous discussions take place.
Let's build up a list now!

Spanish: ??

German: ??

Italian: ??

Dutch: ??

To be continued...

We can already compile important information about PC's history with The Pirate Community Documentary.

And as for the topics dedicated to users that speak specific languages, PC mainly consists of English and French speakers. We do have Spanish, Dutch, and other languages being spoken here, but them people speak English too, so there is not really any need. :wink:

You don't get it, some people would just like to talk here in their mother tongue.

I suppose you wouldn't need more than one board for Norwegians, Swedes and Danes then, since we all can pretty much understand what the others are writing. And I don't think there are many speakers of those languages on this board either, haha~ cx

The problem is that I don't think native speakers will bother managing a topic.

Are you Polish? (For English, French etc.: tongue and language are the same words in Polish.)

Well... I don't think it is needed. Another thing is currently Polish Rayman forums sucks. There were two: one was striked by another, the another one became a forum about ideas of its admin.

I agree with Beebop here actually.

It's a good idea, but we don't have enough people here who speak different languages. We have 1 Swedish member, 1 Norwegian, 1 Dutch, but not two of anything. I believe I tried this in 2005 and sadly it didn't work.

Indeed. A whole community would be needed in order to make it a successful topic.
