Like what we really need is a lot more people who can't read and
write. Learn to read and write then play the game.

There is nothing in this game that says you have to go real fast. If
the game going slow bores you then go chase a ball on the freeway in
the dark.



(let's face it, WoW is easy to play, in the sense
that it appeals to a large segment of the population), and also people
who aren't being offered a version of the game in their own native
language (Scandinavians, Dutch, people in Eastern Europe, Russia, and so
forth).

Over 3/4 of the known world speak and read english. English is the
language most foreign students learn. All foreign pilots flying into
the united states must speak english. All students of China and
Russia learn to read, write and speak english. Its only in California
that they want to adopt spanish.


I don't understand this reasoning. In my opinion it is MUCH easier to
read foreign language than to listen to it.


I love to listen to spanish, russian, japanese, chinese and etc. I
like foreign films that are subtitled.
