We arent opposed to new language forums, but please consider if the German one will work for you first.  For example, we considered this for Ukranian and Russian, but felt that since the languages were so similar to just keep 1 board.

The thinking is to promote discussion with a larger audience.

If the language between Germany and those two countries is that much different then we will gladly create new forums.  That is why I asked you the question.

But instead of answering the question, you get butthurt?

Come on.  be constructive.

This is exactly the kind of help I need. If someone who is an expert could tell me how to best divide things up Ill be more than glad to.  I just dont want to get into a situation where we unnecessarily create additional boards when we dont need to.  Id like to be able to have as many people collaborating in a single board as possible.

For example, we have just 1 board for Ukranians and Russians.  Since those 2 languages are nearly interchangeable between those peoples, they can both collaborate *together* in 1 board, stronger than being split up into 2 different boards.

Same concept here.  If an expert can pipe up and help me in how to best divide the Deutsch-esqe boards up that would be great

Ok thank you. I am not an expert but in my humble opinion

One board for Nederlands (Dutch) will do for Belgium and the Netherlands.
