All our members speak English quite well, but not all newcomers! This topic is for those people, who can not understand something in TAS or TASVideos, but they want to. They may ask for their countrymen to explain stuff in native language. http://translate.google.com/#en Of course the subject must be dubbled in english by an answering member. Private messaging in native languages is also encouraged. I don't expect great number of posts in this thread, but it may be very useful for foreigners. That's why, probably it may become sticky? What do you think?
Warning: When making decisions, I try to collect as much data as possible before actually deciding. I try to abstract away and see the principles behind real world events and people's opinions. I try to generalize them and turn into something clear and reusable. I hate depending on unpredictable and having to make lottery guesses. Any problem can be solved by systems thinking and acting.

Good idea, but in this case, the post might as well be translated into various languages to help newcomers.

I did think about suggesting using a google translator for original post. So maybe it should be recompiled to be more suitable for machine translate.
