Or my suggestion is to use it house for Russian speaking community

But in my opinion no such houses should be, if you want to held a meeting - you should use meeting rooms, that are implemented.

I implying to you than such propositions are not realistic and every group of players.

My contras:
[*] I like this house I sit there while I afk, use it as exchange room with my mule, and I saw a lot of people is do so;
[*] such decision will not be fair with relation to other players groups. I.e. house location is very comfortable, and if "language houses" will be introduced - there should be separate area with such houses, so everyone will get equal opportunities. This house should be used for public meetings;
[*] such decision will be a bit racist looking like it was when different benches of bus places exist for different ethnic groups;
[*] there is a quest NPC there.

Hello,

maybe a big house where we can speak every langage , and just let people organize themselves for room.

and on the other hand, everybody should accept only-english rules.

I guess we would need a brazil house then - I personally favor a german house with a huge swastika on it.

A german house sounds okay!
But not the swastika ... it appears to be already trademarked by the "Manson Family" ...

~Sorry Matt ... bad symbolic spin today, maybe give it another try tomorrow ? ~

How about work on your english speaking skills at least in public areas. Its more fun then a classroom. That and its a game rule. We can always step out of earshot or whisper as well.

When we give a private place to the French we will soon get the same request from the Spanish, Portugese, German, Polish, Namibian and whatever nationality people who want their official meeting place, too.

Then they will start complaining that their houses are in less convenient places, smaller, less beautiful or whatever and accuse us of racism when we don't comply to their demands.

I am sure this idea will cause controversy but, oh well. Why not create a few buildings, each with similar appearances except each building would have a countries flag shown or create a large building with multiple doors and the flag above each door. That way players from their respective countries could enter and speak their native language without offending others or be scolded for not speaking english.

This is a suggestion how this problem could be solved in a less drama-inducing way:

1. An "International Club" building is added to every major town.
2. The entrances of all of these buildings link to the same indoor map. Leaving this map returns the players to the places they entered from.
3. The indoor map consists of a large lobby with doors to separate rooms for the 16(?) most spoken languages in the world (sans english, of course). The doors are labled by national flags.
