Intelligent? It's not much about intelligence. An English-speaking admin would just have to be experienced on the field/know what's been going on/how things are ran on GK. Of course, they would have to be able to speak/read/type/understand proper english.

You know absolutely nothing - don't make assumptions.

Really? Or maybe I was just there when it was being discussed with Stefan?


Yeah, exactly, stop your childish comments.

So why did you say it?

Anyway, Fry is right; we only need somebody that can speak English fluently. We don't need an American.

Don't sidestep me, Gambet.

Most people from other countries don't have English as their first language or aren't online when Americans are to help us. I just assumed an American would be the best choice.

Sidestep? I answered your insolent remark. Consider that the last time I answer to your insolence.

I disagree. We need an American, since a majority of the server is American.

Having the same or close timezone would benefit.

Yeah, so? What does that matter? The only necessary criterion is that they are fluent in English, regardless of when they learned it.

And America is not the only country whose primary language is English.

This thread's about language, dude. Timezones are a different issue entirely.

You ignored the other comment. Their online time is a major factor. If they're from Europe and are on when we are asleep it's not going to help us Americans.

My bad didn't see that. I didn't write the original post right. I'd like a fluent english speaker who lives in the correct timezone. I don't want someone who can speak English but lives in China. Thats all I want and I'm not going to argue about it since theres no reason to.

What about Canada? Mexico? South America? Are you guys not close timezone wise? Just because players are american doesn't mean staff need to be.

Sure. But America is the closest.

Might as well kill two birds with one stone, Kaimetsu.

I have no problem to understand you. Noone would get a job on a gold server if he/she is not able to speak good english.
Just a question, but why exactly english? Graal is a game from France. So we could also use French as mainlanguage for Graal. English is only used because it's a world language most of the people can speak.

Who exactly do you mean with other foreigners, please?
How I said Graal is a game from France. So this would mean you are foreign, too.
But since this is a big community noone should be called foreign.


That's all I wanted to say to this thread.
Thank you for reading.

Getting rid of all people outside the U.S. on Graal is basically suicide for the game. So you have to spend a minute or two thinking about what they were trying to say. Big deal. Live with it. Not everyone fluently speaks English.

Next to the server 'stats' and information, it says: Langauge: 'langauge'
For an example, next to Graal Kingdoms, its says: English
