If someone in German can't read it he can translate it via the flag-buttons.
But the English translated into German by Google makes me going nuts!

The babelfish stuff usually suck. Different grammar for different languages, words that has 2 meanings etc, you usually have to struggle to get a translation from babelfish.

I actually just tried it for the first time now, it works pretty well even though as I mentioned the translations can be annoying since they are far from accurate in either language. But you get the jist of it.

I just think it's sad in a way, the way this forum is divided, it feels like 2 groups of people who plays "You stay at your side of the forum, and we'll stay at our". Wish there was a way to get more German-speaking people to post in the English section.

Found some bugs, I can't click on links unless they are part of a quote, and everytime I post in a new thread I have to log in again, even though I press the automatic log-in button.
