We oppose the French forum because it is purposefully exclusionary. What about Spanish, or German, or Japanese, or Swahili? Why does EoFF only support one foreign language? Because Bleys, the leader of the goatsecs and ruler of EoFF, speaks french and wants a forum to indulge in his French-speaking fantasies.
1) No-one has expressly asked the admins for a forum in another language, or started a petition... one single person will not get the admins to create a new forum, regardless of whatever party they are in (even though most of them aren't in any). Mass support is needed and you haven't shown proof of that... The French Forum has only recently been opened, before that it was the petit gamee oRPG forum which got closed. That HAD mass support because the former petit gamee members all banded together to get the forum created...

2) What are the worlds most used languages? English, then Spanish, followed by French and then Chinese... now EoFF has maybe 1 chinese member, 7 spanish speaking members (as far as I know) and at least 19 French speaking members...

The main thing to remember is if you want the french foru to turn into a multilingual one, or you want other language threads opened, then form a petition thread and catch the admins eyes... do NOT blame it on Bleys or the Goatsecs party...
