We understand both German and English, so why should we separate it?

Should we separate every category (Feedback Ger/Eng, Bugs Ger/Eng, ...) or the whole forum (Ger -> Feedback, Bugs, ...; Eng -> Feedback, Bugs, ...)? - Automatic translators like Google's one return crappy results.

When we have some free time besides working on the next Gamers.IRC version, we'll see if we can manage it.

DGMurdockIII, thanks for this Feedback.

Why is the topic of this thread "English Forum"?
We have one forum. Its neither English nor German. It is an international forum. And we are on the best way (with our translators) to add more languages than English and German. This would mean that we need several (sub) forums for each language.
But this is not necessary. I cannot see an advantage.

Auto language translator: use google. But this is not acceptable: crappy results. If you don't understand the German post, start a new thread with you question.
If you found a bug that have already been reported: We don't mind if it gets reported once for each language. If it gets reported to often, we will start a new thread with an English and German title.

I am against this suggestion.

But we don't have a German forum. So how should we remove it. We only have one international Forum.

If you wish a English forum, you can interpret our forum as an English forum.
Because it is neither German nor English.

This would mean, that we need to split um the whole forum in a german and english part. Move ever post and so on. Too much work for me.

No.
We have one international forum. That's it.
Thanks for this Feedback.

I gave you several reasons why we don't want to split it up. And I still cannot see an advantage.

I cannot force anyone to post in English if he speaks no English.
But why should they post in English? We have a international forum. So it's neither a English nor a German forum.
