Why are you so arrogant as to say that RSRE, "a snowsports forum for
Europeans and those interested in visiting Europe" is "bound to have
mainly UK contributors"?


It's called observation and logic actually. Take a look at the forum

"bound to have" suggests it is not based upon observation at all and
indeed is the kind of statement that would be made before such a group
were even set up. Try again.

Fact: posting history backs this up, read the archives. Fact: The only
non-English postings tend to be accidental. Fact: Most people prefer to post
to forums where the language is one in which they are fluent. Fact: Non-UK
Anglophones in the skiing fraternity are mainly North American-based, and
tend to post to rsa or rsrna. Conclusion?


archives. An English language forum tends to attract English speakers,
and
as other ski forums cater for those Anglophones that ski outside
Europe...
do I really need to explain more?

Ah. Yes, you do. It's not an English language forum. Read the charter.


As others have patiently mentioned, the vast majority of postings to this ng
are, always have been, and likely will remain, in English. Split as many
hairs as you like, but that's the way it is.
