Since we have this. We have a new section called Europe but WHY is there only the UK and Ireland in the subsection, and no other European country which are still in separate catagories?

Should we ask our Irish members if they want their own catagory too?

what does anyone think?

Just ideas. :)

I think we should keep UK and Ireland together. There really is no need. I don't want the UK forum separated from the Irish one. We are such similar people and have vested interests.

We have Scandinavian forum and we should keep the British Isles forum.

Tis up to the Irish ones - just a thought nothing more.

Well I'd vote no. Basically because of what Allister said and in reality I don't think that there is enough Irish here for it to get much use.

An Irish language subforum, within the UK/Ireland section would be nice, but I doubt that would be used much either.

I think the difference is that the other European subforums (e.g. German) aren't regional but language related forums....

having their forums as subfourms in here would kind of exclude everyone who just comes there for language practise and not for regional talk....

:wave:

An Irish person!!!!!!! :O
And I thought I was the only one!!!!!

Yeah, you're right, there's too few of us to have our own category.

I guess it's good there is no swiss forum.
should we speak there (swiss)german or french? or maybe italian. it would get confusing.

but I like the language forums. kinda cool.

I know, this was not relevant in anyway to your thread, but hey, I blame the llamas!

I really wonder why we can't have one main forum called "Europe" and the european areas / countries like subforums to Europe? I'm scandinavian but I'd really like to interact with other europeans, especially when it comes to the EU, politics, culture and stuff like that. Besides why does it matter if it's a mixed languages forum anyway? Isn't Europe a continent of many languages? I don't understand a single word of finnish, but I still think it's a matter of course that they're part of the Scandinavian forum.
