do you mean Français or french speaking users?
you could try to find out make a poll?

Kdh said ONE french. I do not need a poll. I only wanted to show that his statements about the fact that I was the only one who gave that opinion means nothing as I'm the only one from France to post regularly...

You aren't the only French poster

TBH, he isnt far from the truth (with the only French poster thing). French locality is DB wise 3 times bigger then Canada, but do you see 3 times more French users? No, in my experience, none of the "big" European countries (or countries in general for that matter) post in english forums. In some cases (such as Invelos forums) Germany is an exception.

Most of french users come on the french forum, so I think I know most of them.

I only said I was alone to post regularly. If it's not true, just give another name. Should be easy for someone posting regularly...

Okay, Surfeur, I'll accept that you are the only poster from France.  It's really sad, then, if you are the only one.  This leave us with only your word for how French users deal with Profiler, especially with making contributions.  And sad, because you obviously have no intention of following rules and continue to claim that the rules didcriminate against French users because they lack common sense.  I think it is quite odd that we can have many contributors who aren't fluent in English yet manage to have THEIR contributions accepted.  What could be the possible reason why everybody else can do it -- but not French?  I hate to deal with a stereotype, but this situation sounds like it follows the sterotype mentioned by hydr0x about French being unwilling to deal with anything that isn't in the French language.  I don't mean to be insulting, but it's hard to deal with someone who seems unwilling to help his own countrymen work within the Rules because he doesn't like them.

You bring it on yourself, Surfeur. I have tried repeatedly to explain things to you. Even in a post yesterday. I have to refer to what Ken said, it is indeed odd, that nobody else has the problems which you claim to be common in France. I don't wish to insult you, never have, but sometimes I feel that perhaps alittle tongue in cheek might make you look at yourself. I understand what you want and why, but that is not the way we do it and i have explained in detail why, yet you persist. <shrugs> And as I have said your idea of common sense is certainly the opposite of common sense as I learned it, that doesn't mean I am right and you are wrong...it DOES mean recognize that there isno universal definition of common sense, it doesn't exist and no two people will see it exactly the same.

One more attack... thanks... but you should look at a new post in general discussion to take some more ideas...

Moving right along....

I personally don't see anything wrong with a foreign language section of the site though I don't think we need a separate section for each language.

Another thing to toss out into the ether about being a native English speaker or not - I see many posters here where English is their second (or so) language write in English a LOT better than those in which English is their native language (in general, not here on invelos) - namely those in their teenage years.  Hell, this paragraph alone makes my head spin a little.
