Language icon or other languages support

[pokaz_cycki]

Hey. I have a suggestion. I see in the forum that relatively often posts are written in broken English, it is probably true to say that people from different countries write here. This is not a problem in the photo section, but in the fiction/non-fiction section it raises a problem, because people make mistakes that make it possible to understand, or use translators, spoiling the whole point of what is being said.

Do you know anything about the statistics from which countries people visit OCC Forum most often? How different are they?

Would it be possible to add a small icon in the profile or next to the author of the post indicating the country the user is writing from?

I know it is technically possible, because I have seen such a solution on other forums. It is always better to communicate in one language. So far I have even been able to write in English with a person who was at the same event as me, in another country. The world is not only the US and I think it is worth taking a step in this direction. I'm not saying to create forums in the local language right away, but adding a country checkbox would be cool for private message communication. If someone from Brazil, for example, has experienced something cool and describes it on the forum in English that you can barely understand, I think it would be worth adding to the rules that if you don't know the language of the discussion, you should talk about it directly or say where you're from, because the cultural context of the situation around the world also matters a lot. For example, sauntering in Finland is the norm, while in Arab countries it is degenerate. People from another continent may not know the local names of festivals or misunderstand it. I have seen here at times on the forum a misunderstanding of the topic and context. Not everyone is an omnibus who knows everything, such a country flag next to the post would be nice.
It would also be nice if you could change the language to local, the forum script itself.
