a) it would of course, they now have a place to post. But I don't think it's worth all the work IMHO, in a sense that:
- those who come here already have a decent background in english and manage it well
- usually we have our country foruns for posting and "native" chat. English foruns are a complement and a must for non-en players who take poker seriously.
- Unless it would have sub-threads for each major languages, in short time it would become a confusing mix salad of crazy characters, not sure if the admin "ROI" justifies it.
b) I can help you with spam moderation too. But for quality posts it requires more time...
What I suggest as an alternative to my a) answer is a thread where non-en users could ask for help in translating their articles and posts. You could have a list of voluntary members, so you would sort of mediate things.
Anyway, I'm here to help and aplause

Congratulations dak, exactly my thoughts. Bob I could help you with german and french but I still do not think that this would bring the forum further on. I personally think that English is a must if you want to play international tournaments.
Further on I believe it only would open doors to the pw sharers as those thread would be much less controllable and we already fight against this problem...
So I would propose to not change the forum as it is already very good.
