Why does it seem i am always dropped into a server that is from another country. Nobody speaks English. This makes it tough to make trades. Wondering if anyone else has these issues.

I think they use geolocation to determine what server you first start in. 90% of the time I start on some server where people say stuff like, "Hav, yuav ua li cas yog koj hnub" ???

Then I have to use events to change servers. I normally swap tabs while changing and forget and when I go back to yo, I have been kicked from someone's event, probably for just standing there quietly, lol

A while ago there used to be 2 complete servers.. Adult and Child server(s). As far as I know, there are no 2 servers that effect the game in such a way where you can't find certain people because of age, country or gender. However, there are what I like to call, "Mini Servers". These are the servers that split everyone up to stop one server from getting overloaded.

If you wish to change server you could always visit multiple events until you manage to find a group of people that are fluent in the same language(s) as you. (A lot of events cause you to change server).

Please correct me if I am wrong. (:

Well i believe there are Hundreds if not thousands of servers. Each is maybe geo-located as suggested . They used to separate kids from adults. But this was stopped. But really there is no way we could be in the game if everyone was on one server. lol Just a pain when i go to Altons or an event and Nobody speaks English. I am sure this is also an issue if someone only speaks french, German, ect... I also like to make friends from all over. But i do want to correspond with them . lol

So do I, but when you can't understand them, and
they can't understand you, it makes it hard..

I speak Spanish and English. I understand a little about some other languages and try to communicate but yes, sometimes it's hard. I am fine though, English and Spanish I think are two of the biggest languages in the game.

I think it depends on what time of day you're on and looking at events, not the servers. We're all in different time zones, and at certain times of day, people from other countries are on, so you will see more people speaking other languages.

I wish I could speak Spanish.. A language I've always wanted to learn, just never took the time to learn it!
