There are lot of people on Laurelin that don't understand english also. Should Turbine make servers for Italians, Spaniards, Russians, Turks, Dutch or even me and 3 other Croatian speaking people so we can understand what is happening around us? Or we are just less valuable?
Lucky for us non EN, DE, FR people Turbine did make player-created chat channels (they could add few more slots for that...) so we can use it and ignore all the rest if we like it.
