As I have expressed in two separate locations, I find it a little rude that there isn't any other place to express myself in my native language, or any other languages that I speak, aside from English. A lot of other websites have separate sections to speak in other languages, and I think that it's something that should be done here as well.

  So you are saying that a Prime Bimbo must be fluent in 143 different languages? To not be rude.   This really is also a real world issue with illegal immigration.   Migrant's who bring their own customs and languages to a new nation, and refuse to become a part of it.  Are the Germans loving the flood of Syrian Refugees?  Greece seems to have a bit of a problem as well, because suddenly that nation has been over-run with people who are not Greek.  They also have no intention of becoming Greek.  So an entire nation is being divided by the lack of any semblance of integration.  Should the Greeks or Germans now be required to speak in the dozens of middle eastern languages because the Muslims hate western societies, but want to escape the mess they made in their own lands of birth? 
   Just some food for thought to digest.
" When in Rome do as the Romans would do".  I don't know who made that original statement, but it was one that I would use when I was placed in different work environments I wasn't comfortable with.  I don't know Italian, but I do know Men.  I spoke that language just fine. They were proud to be able to use English with me, more as a way of getting my attention. It wouldn't have been the same if I was such a snotty ass bitch and would only reply to a speaker of German while in Italy.
 English is the language of international commerce, and it is this common and shared language that allows First World Nations to thrive.

If you read this you would know that it is not like there are NO ways to speak in your native language on this site, in this post our Prime Bimbo even states that other languages would be fine in certain sections of the forum- but not the general forum.

I'm only referring to the General Forum. Games and humor and Personal messages are not included in this.  Those area's of personal interaction is fair game to use as you want...

i think a discussion about the language here in this forum is not so easy to compare to world wide migration and the need of many people to escape from war! (and i like to know what is "illigal immigration" in your opinion and what is legal immigration compared to it.) and i think to say "the muslims" do this/think that/are like this is racist!

the situation in greek is bad. for the greek people and for the refugees. the situation is bad on the border from greek to mazedonia... and it goes on and on ...the balkan route. we need functional asylum laws and migration laws that actually respond to the real situation we have: many people leaving theire countries because they see no future there or because they will die there...
i dont think letting people die in a war or on the way/the border to europe is an alternative!

Personally, I find it a bit difficult to speak in English because I did learn that school and I has very little practice. This site thus forcing me to make efforts in this sense are not so bad because it is true that the english is the most used language. Of it by now I passse lot by google trad to understend which is write and reply. If I created the topic on the French, it was to see if I was French only on this site but not to force the other to speak in my language. Also I did not know that a topic on nationnalité already exist I'll go after this post. If English becomes the official language biboland it's a good thing I think, but it could also create any forum with language most used after English ​​like Spanish, German, French, etc. so that bimbos even nationnalité can be together and talked in their native language while continuing to post in English on other forums.

I've a modest proposal: 
We create a new language we all have to learn. BAM.
 
 
(Satire for those who didn't catch the literary reference, I'm not seriously suggesting that.)

@Lyriiia ahahaha yeah let's do this XD

@HeavenLeighBimbo I agree with the answer you gave me. So only English would be used on the general forum, but any languages in the game and humour section and in private messages. I think it's a good idea, and there would be still this little part of the forum where people would be free to speak in any language they want. That's a good deal. Otherwise you'll need heaps of moderators fluent in many languages, and I don't think they would be really easy to find ^^' 
Again I'm just giving my opinion.

I really liked: maniatica
maniatica's post.  It is a topic I would love to debate about. In respect to what is going on in America.  I know that subject very well.  I only get the news from places like Greece, So It may sound worse than it really is.  There is vary large differences between a Migrant, and Illegal immigrant, and war refugee.  However it is Politically Correct to only use the word 'Migrant' when discussing the subject. I wouldn't even exist if my parent's weren't war refugee's sent to America in the 1940's.

 Not using the English language, causes America's illegal immigrants to isolate themselves in micro communities that have become active area's of crime, and human slavery too. The criminal culture of Americas illegal immigration problem is a Social Crisis that has in part driven America into 65 trillion dollars in debt and growing faster than I could type the Zero's. Look at the real time data here. That link is fascinating to watch and study where the money goes.
  The human suffering in this issue is even more costly. 

  I sort of wonder how Greece is going to afford their war refugees.  Your right, you can't turn them away.  But you also just might want to make sure that a terrorist does't get into your borders along with the women and children.

I strongly believe English should be the Bimbo Land's national language. 
1. English is the most commonly used language in the world.
2. Our currency on Bimbo Lands is in USD.
3. The general site is in English.
4. There really is no need to express yourself in a language besides English, and even if English isn't your strongest language, it shouldn't affect everyone else. 
 
P.S. As a fluent Japanese speaker I never felt the need to use it on this site.

i think, that this is one of the main problems europe has to face right now: the costs for providing for all the refugees and the costs for the bureaucracy. greece and some of the states on the balcanroute aren't in such a good financially situation (and they have insufficient healthcare for their residents and the refugees, high unemployment rates,... and this didn't come with the refugees, the problems were there before!) ... europe has to consider helping out (we saved banks and states with european government money, so it should be possible to save people!) and europe has to consider chancing the laws. the agreement "Duplin II" says, that a refugee has to apply asylum in the first save (european) state he/her arrives at. That is a problem for states like greece or italia, because most refugees arrive there, and than have to stay there and apply for asylum instead of going their way to other european countries, so the system burdens the states on the border to europe, not the inner states like germany or the uk... that is a problem which states like germany did not look at for many years!
now we have to!
