Title: Proposition / proposal

Bonjour, je me demandais si c'était possible que vous fassiez des sous forums pour nous les français, les mêmes qu'en anglais ?

Hi, I was thinking if it's possible that you create a forum in french ?

Oh yes, good idea, and one in Dutch too please :)
No serious, these are the official Planetside Forums, so I doubt if there will ever be another official forum in an other language than English.
Honestly I prefer the English language exclusively here. Just to keep it transparent and clear for everyone.
Yes, I happen to speak it a little and I understand you're having troubles, but to me it seems you're doing very good with a little bit self-taught english + google translator :)
Isn't planete-terragen.org not active anymore? That's a french-only TG2 forum, but of course with lots less activity and resources. Also, I don't want to chase you away from here, on the contrary!

Cheers,
Martin

The problem with split forums is that subsequently either information will be split too or everything is posted twice in two languages which I doubt will happen. So we end up having helpful tips and discussions scattered over two languages (later maybe even three or more, german anyone?^^) which makes it even harder to find what one is looking for.

It could be useful if (active) Terragen community was ten times stronger than it is now.

Your posts help me learn French. I a few years I may be able to reply in your language.

It's unlikely we will be creating dedicated non-English forums any time soon, but we're always open to considering the needs of the community. For now I suggest posting in both French and English. Even an automatic translation is usually understandable, and allows everyone to participate in the conversation. :)
