English & Dutch section???

Post by Gino »

Hello,

I been wondering around on this forum for a few weeks now.
The calm atmosphere here is a nice experience.
Also the English writing is quit good so i shape up my English writing and reading.
But i noticed that most people here are Dutch speaking.
I think it could be an idea to create separate sections in English and in Dutch.
This way i think the Dutch speaking people will become more active.
Just a thought.

Kind regards, Gino

After some reflexion... Basically a good idea but impossible because some of the founders of this forum are not speaking Dutch. Pamela and Steve Bingham just to mention two of them.

Kindest regards,
Stany

Nice idea, but I think we all want to read every comment in a Language what is universal for every one......
If some of us will join a dutch discussion who is going to translate it if you want to be part of it ???
I think personally we are one group and have to take care of every decision that will be made through the board.
of course in this stage it is a thought and we all are happy if every one thinks positive about new ideas, and start a discussion....
let us wait what the others in the forum will add and then make a vote.

As i wrote before, for me personally it is not a problem because this is good for my English reading and writing.
I just noticed the fact that there are a lot of Dutch and Belgian people here.
It is not my intention to rise a commotion here.

It looks like a good idea, but we would be closing the forum for about half the population. It doesnot seem fair to me.
