Here's a suggestion for the forum admins. Get all users posting in "International" to include the language that they're using in the topic line (such as "[english] Problems linking 2 servers" or something like that). It will make the lives of all who use the International forum so much easier.

Although it must be admitted that I don't go there...

I think you are exaggerating a bit... It's very readable to me (and I think others too). It would probably not be worth it.
I mean if you see a language you know, you can respond.. If you see a topic line in a language that you cannot understand (like in turkish) then you don't look at it.. sounds logical to me ;).

Posting "English", ok, but what about Spanish. Do they say "Spanish" or "Espanol"? In the former, they may not know the English word for their language, and in the latter, well if the whole topic name is in Spanish already, shouldn't it be obvious that it is Spanish?

Hmm... good points, both of you. I never thought of that.
