The Spanish and the Scandinavians

Well, Scandinavia has 5 countries with their own languages and customs. Pretty much the only ones who understand each other well is swedish and norweigan because their languages are very similar. A scandinavian server would still be mostly english spoken. So there really ain’t much of a point. Spanish though, the seem to both want and need a server for themselves.

Are you kidding me scandinavian servers?
I’ve yet to write a single phrase of danish. Can we just agree that nordics aren’t as big of a problem as the spains?

Clearly we’re all well versed, and jump to english.
Though we love to greet in our native tounge! But that’s just us. Scandi servers is a crazy idea.

I don’t see the nordic problem much on Gehenna. And that’s where we all moved to apparently. But we usually jump to english first. And if we do speak our language in general or trade, it takes a few seconds before we move to our english again!

And danes, because they’re so similar. Don’t forget us danes please.

My experience is that most swedes find danes hard to understand XD

A scandivavian realm would be insanity as we don’t share a common language and most scandinavian people of an age to play video games are proficient enough (if not entirely fluent) in English that a localised translation is just a waste of time and resources.

I am a Swede and you are wrong on quite a few things.

  1. You are misinformed. People hate the fact that she still even is considered a princess and wants at the very least to stop paying for her. That is at the very least. People want her to not be in line of succession and/or have her title stripped.

  2. People do love some English tv shows but we watch and love far more American tv and are more inspired by American culture. Don’t get me wrong, some people love all things UK but American culture is much bigger here.

  3. No, its all about coffee here. Tea is not unpopular but it holds nothing to coffee.

  4. Finland is a part of the Nordic which is something we use a lot more than Scandinavia. Our national anthem even says we want to live and die in the Nordics - Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Finland and Iceland.

  5. I got no opinion on the matter, I come from a little hole far north where it’s relatively safe.

You got your numbering wrong this time around, along with your information. While I reply sincerely to you I am also assuming you are a troll.

For those of you wondering Gehennas is the server I know a significant amount of Swedes Danes and Finn’s have gone to as their home, as for a Spanish only server just rally up and pick one collectively like the polish did in vanilla word of mouth soon spreads “oh such and such server has a strong Spanish following let’s go there” as well as “oh I hear such and such server is mainly full of Spanish people let’s go else where as we won’t be able to understand them”. Also to the guy saying Swedes drink mainly tea and not coffee your wrong, your so so so wrong. The 5l coffee urn at work gets refilled 3 times a day, the loose tea pots are all but full

What do you mean ‘‘Scandinavian server’’, you know Scandinavia consists of 3 different countries with 3 different languages right?

Literally nobody asked for Scandinavian servers. Lol.

Besides there’s a huge difference between spanish and scandinavians. Spain has 1 language, Scandinavia is a collective of countries with their own languages so grouping them all together would make 0 sense at all.

You obviously dont know what your talking about. We have 1 tea-shop in my city, and its one of the bigger citys in norway. And even that one dont really see too much buissness.
And you are basing one of your points on the fact that we have reruns of som old tv show from england?? Good God man get a grip.

And you know we cant pick and choose where our taxes go right?
Oh and there are no-go zones in sweeden.

Finland is not scandinavian country. It is very common mistake to think it is.

This. Finland is, however, part of the nordic countries.

I don’t think scandinavian servers are needed. Scandinavians speak english very well. If they speak in their own languages (there is multiple languages in scandinavia, not just “scandinavian language”, some more similar than others) it is because they are talking with eachothers or just goofin around. Then someone who only speaks english can just ignore that part of the chat and assume it os not ment for him/her. Alternative is to learn bit of swedish which helps to understand most scandinavian languages at least somewhat (allthough danish can be still pickle). Alltough i warn you, if you do learn it and then understand those few random talks in chat you will be thinking: “Omg i cannot believe i just spent time to learn swedish to hear this stupid joke about Börjes mom”. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

As a Danish person, I’m not sure why (if there is?) there is a desire for a Scandinavian server. I mean, scandinavians speak English among each other anyway, so such a server would be indistinguishable from a regular English-speaking server.
And let’s be frank as well, as much as there’s a northern brotherhood, we’re also sworn enemies. The less swedes around, the better I say! :smirk:

I can get the desire for a Spanish server, because Spanish people want to talk Spanish. Not sure if they’re enough though. I mean, once the storm settles you have to assume there’ll be less Spanish Classic players than there are Spanish Retail players. It’s dubious if that’s sufficient for a Classic server. Blizzard seems to think it isn’t.
I guess if the future shows that there’s an insane interest in Classic WoW, then they’ll open a Spanish, Italian, Russian, and so on, server option. But that’s not now.

So easily baited😂

Well trolled rotimax! Made me giggle

Skit I honom, han är för korkad för att fatta bättre…
