And you mention Dutch community is bigger, ok, you know the numbers, but I know we have been without any jmod for months, and we didn't need him for being a cheer lead making ingame events, we needed him to help us on issues, to give a costume support to us and to help with the information, as I said, to build a bridge between both communities and break the English wall. After Mod Achilles left, we were alone in a forum with only 1 fmod and volunteers to help each other, but there was spam and trolling which has hard to handle by 1 fmod and it made many people leave the forums. And still it was better to have a place to help each other (ignoring the trolls) than nothing. Now that we were getting back to what it was, you close it...
I think making this change, still with good intentions, you just show me you don't know the Spanish community at all. Maybe you didn't realize what those changes could mean for Spanish speakers, so well, I tried to explain you with my creepy English.

I'm confused. Why are you doing this?
EDIT: I think I misread. Are you basically adding the language forums to the bottom of the current forums? Or are you just removing them entirely?

When will we get a clear message about the situation on the moderators that worked within the Scandinavian part of the Runescape Community? will we get a clear message on this theme at all?
Will it by any change get started up new forums for the Scandinavian Community in the future? or is that part of the forums gone?
Will Jagex make a official announcement on any of this themes i mentioned or will we be left with the rumours that now are going around Runescape?
The Scandinavian part of the Runescape community is such a Huge part of Runescape world wide, so to Turn down this Forums is in my opinion not the best choice. will we by any change recieve new Scandinavian Jagex moderators, will they we have now stay? or will the Scandinavian Support be gone?
I get the feeling that Many of the new choices made from Jagex only is too reach higher income of Money and profit for Jagex them self, that they don't let us the Runescape Community have a meaning in the case is a big problem in my opinion. they should think about their players in the first place, they do have a pretty big income from the Players of this game. I will not even start the Bot discussuion again on this thread but again, they don't do enough about them because it would change the Income from the game.
I believe that you atleast should keep a "Scandinavian" forum if not in all the languages atleast one Forum Based on Norwegian, Swedish And Danish players. there is such high numbers of players come from These countries, even several of the top players world wide is from Scandinavian Countries. removing our Forums will not Make anything better at all.
The Support we recieve from Petal and the other Norwegian, Danish, swedish speaking Moderators will never get better than it was right now! The support was on top, with Both Forums and Chats the players may use to get help. Removing this will only make it harder to get help for These people that ain't that safe on english speaking.

I won't use the forums anymore, and the support can't get better. What is wrong with you? Then, that you also call Jagex best in the world in the thread. Sorry, but i won't use the forums anymore.
Now you have really done something stupid. Something really stupid.
It is sad that Jagex only want money now. Maybe it's time for me to quit RS:

"… the fact that the Dutch get taught english at a freakisly low age nowadays I think that when dutch kids reach the age from where on they are allowed to play this game (12? 13?) they already have had 2 or 3 years of english classes and therefore a basic understanding of the english language as you mentioned." (Quote Jan Cabbage)
About 80% of the Flemish kids ( also speaking Dutch) just start learning English at school at the age of 12/13. The other 20% never learn English.
Playing Runescape help them mastering the English language such as listening to song and watching movies do.…
...
I understand players don’t feel happy having no longer localised support. Let's hope the Scandinavian and Spanish players at least still can have some support in their own language what concerns account issues.
Even with a basic knowledge of English , it’s rather difficult to express such matters as billing problems. Understanding English is even a lot easier than using it in an active way.

Not all of us in the language forums speak good enough English to be able to enjoy the English forums. This means the Forums will lose some amazing people, that would like to contribute in the same way they did in their own language - but simply don´t have the English vocabulary to do so.
