snowman97 Posted February 16, 2014 Posted February 16, 2014 (edited) Explanation of the suggestion Alright, so I'm fairly sure most people know which other site had this PiP and section, not gonna mention any names. I DO NOT claim this idea as my own so don't flame me for ''ripping'' this idea. - Dutch section I believe there should be a dutch section for dutch people. Example: People from the netherlands can talk about basically anything in the dutch section, which would be called ''Nederlands'' which means dutch. You are ONLY allowed to speak dutch in this section. - PiP Now this is where the PiP comes in. If you have 250 posts (for example, could be switched up) in the ''Nederlands'' section you get this PiP called BeNeLux: Yes, once again, this picture is from a different website but I'm not going to name it. Most people know which site it is, just using this as an example. The main rule The main rule would be that only dutch people are allowed in there. If you don't speak dutch, you won't be allowed in the section and you'll possibly be punished further if you break the forum rules. Please post why you're supporting this suggestion or why you're not supporting it, I'd like to know. Edited February 16, 2014 by snowman97
RoomScape Posted February 16, 2014 Posted February 16, 2014 I would like a USA PiP in that case. I don't mind the Dutch section, you should have that, but a pip is kind of pointless. 1

Well, the thing is, there's a ton of dutch people active on those type of forums and it'd be great to have our own section (and maybe a PiP). Everyone here speaks english, why would they make a PiP for that? Then it won't be unique anymore. I do understand what point you're trying to make but I'd like to see what others think about this.
Administrator Maldesto Posted February 16, 2014 Administrator Posted February 16, 2014 So lets make a English, Portuguese, Spanish, and all other language pips. The site is English only for reasons that are obvious, i think we only have 1 mod that speaks another language fluently. 3

A PiP just because you speak Dutch isn't that big a deal to me. I can see you asking for a section, but I don't know about the pip. I speak a little of Spanish and Arabic, should I get two pips for those?
Maikie61 Posted February 16, 2014 Posted February 16, 2014 You took the PiP & idea from another botting site, goodjob!

Read before you leave a dumb reply please. @Maldesto Gotta agree with you on that one. But how about you leave the PiP out, do you agree on a dutch section or is it a no in general?
RoomScape Posted February 16, 2014 Posted February 16, 2014 We could add the section... i agree with that.Yeah, just the pip would be pointless. Have it and if people go there trolling just infract them or something.
FearMe Posted February 16, 2014 Posted February 16, 2014 So lets make a English, Portuguese, Spanish, and all other language pips. The site is English only for reasons that are obvious, i think we only have 1 mod that speaks another language fluently. In that case, I volunteer as a dutch-speaking moderator. 1
snowman97 Posted February 16, 2014 Author Posted February 16, 2014 Yeah, just the pip would be pointless. Have it and if people go there trolling just infract them or something. Alright, the PiP might go a little too far but what about the dutch section itself?
RoomScape Posted February 16, 2014 Posted February 16, 2014 (edited) Alright, the PiP might go a little too far but what about the dutch section itself?Not a bad idea. How many Dutch speaking people are currently active on the forums, though? It'd be pointless if there were only a handful of users. Edited February 16, 2014 by RoomScape
harrynoob Posted February 16, 2014 Posted February 16, 2014 What about a sectional moderator? This doesn't give away too much power and keeps stuff casual. There's a ton of responsible dutch people on here. Mot a bad idea. How many Dutch speaking people are currently active on the forums, though? It'd be pointless if there were only a handful of users.sup
Kahba Posted February 16, 2014 Posted February 16, 2014 No man no dutch section, it's really pointless, why don't we make a spanish tread too and any other langauge it's not like over 25% of this site is dutch.
