Don't virtually all Scandinavians speak English? If everyone who would be using a Scandinavian chat speaks English why would they not just use the main public chat?
i agree bro like we do not need a chat for every language

What's the point of adding language chats then? Just tell those who play Loka to learn English!

It's to be more inclusive, having another chat doesn't hurt the server.

Nobody is asking people to learn a language to play Loka. This post is asking for a language chat to be added for a group of people that already speak English. 90%+ of Scandinavians speak English, with a higher rate for youth. That's higher than even Canada (86%), and much higher than Poland (50%), the last country whose language got their own chat.

The point of adding language chats is to keep other languages out of public chat while providing a place for non-english speakers to communicate. Its purpose is not to be a regional hangout. Adding a Scandinavian chat would unnecessarily segment public chat, leading to less activity in it.

So we can use our main language in a public chat without being warned for it

At the same time, their are lots of people who do speak various Scandinavian languages in public chat. All we are suggesting is for those people, who seem to only want to speak their native language in public chat, to have a home in which to speak it without getting warned.
