Arrow Dutch Servers.

... Seriously.

Given the absolutely epic number of Dutch players out there I'd think they'd have servers for 'em .....
Heck... there are more Dutch than Italians... yet Italian servers exist. What gives?!

Could do with Polish and Scandinavian servers for that matter...

Why am I being ignored here? ¬_¬

I'm totally serious.

Why do all the Dutch, Polish, Swedish, Russian and just about every other kind of foreign person end up on the English servers...... when even the German servers would suit them better in many cases.

I think there's only districts for each language the game has been translated into (dunno why there hasn't been a Polish district since the implementation though, maybe because the majority uses English anyways), are available.

And, I would just hate a Dutch translation. Imagine Dutch kids spamming 'Ik ben Meteorendouche aan het gebruiken op Bergdwerg!' >.>

Not enough demand. English servers are default, if they don't speak any of the other languages, the default one is as good as any.

Well I'm Dutch myself, but don't think splitting up the cummunity more that it is, is a good thing.
Just talk Dutch in the main chat if you're really having difficulty speaking English.
I admit some people start whining to you to talk English, solution: calmly explain that there is no dis for your language and that you're having a hard time with English grammar. Normal people will understand.

Yeah, I'd like to know where you are getting your statistics for the "epic" number of dutch players. I mean, yes they are out there, but there still isn't enough demand for them to do it. And as Odinius wisely put it, split up the community even more is not a good idea.

I guess it's also because of the fact that we dutch speaking people have no problem (or at least shouldn't have) with speaking english.

Also i agree with Saphatorael.

"Ik gebruik Wrokkige Geest op Behekste Braambessen"
"I'm using Spiteful Spirit on Enchanted Brambles."

Even if there would come dutch servers...I wouldent go there(yes im dutch)

May sound weird, but I just have the feeling that this game isent the same, when not in English (except bork bork bork!!!!)

But thats just me, dont know about other people.
