So its best to give those a separate server of their own, be whatever language it is. Those who want English can select English and chat in English.Quote:

So it is optional and user controlled. having multiple language rooms actually encourages communication and understanding as long as they are communicating in the same langugage and they are understanding each other. So a player who speaks German can switch to English server to speak English and vice versa. There is no segregation between the people of the world.
The global community have noticed that the Indonesian people are need of their own server where the Indonesian language is strictly spoken, as other languages have the same privilage.
The general consensus to this issue is that there should be a local chat for your region and a genuine English chat button. Someone who speaks English in a foreign non native country should not be punished for not living in a native English speaking country. They should have access to the larger English speaking pool no matter where they started their account.
Exactly. We are in agreement. And this exactly what we are suggesting. Now the German community has their own dedicated language server. When they want to speak German, they go to it. When they want to speak English, they go to English. if you do not speak German, but want to learn German, you can go to the German server. The same for Indonesian. That is allQuote:

For example, my friend in Malaysia, when he selected English, he was limited to only Malaysians that chose English and had to request for his account to be moved to a UK server that had a larger global pool.
So when you ask for a country to have its own server - you are asking for them to be removed from the larger pool even if they speak English.
You are talking about a different issue. You are referring to the idea that your country limits what you see even when you change the language. That is not what we are asking for. That is totally different issue. No one suggested or hinted otherwise.Quote:

Nothing wrong with your point of view, i agree with you. I think if everyone spoke English if they selected English we wouldn't have this issue, it's those who decide to talk non English in English, they are alienating those who simply don't understand that language, you can't communicate with them nor can they communicate with you. If one selects English, they would expect it to be in English, not full of non English who you can't even chat with.Quote:

The issue is, that until sc makes a true diverse global, all they do is shrink the community by localizing countries.
Giving them them a chat server of their own without allowing access to the greater chat is not a solution.
Again, I advocate a global and local option when in chat.
I think we may actually be arguing the same issue from a different vantage point.
