Dawn of War used to be infested with them.

EDIT: Also, people who talk foreign languages in all chat in american districts: go ahead, don't be surprised when we take the piss out of you for it though.
Dawn of War? How about EVERY GOD DAMN GAME ONLINE?

95% of our people are idiots who use [PL] next to nickname, best if with white-red colors, refuse to use any language except ours (because they suck at other languages... and their own language too) and, well, if there's a Polish player in RA, I know my team is going to lose in those 9 out of 10 cases.

...Then again, most of those idiots ARE kids under 16. We even have a funny name for them that comes from combining "child" (Dziecko) and "Neostrada", which is a very crappy, expensive, but widely accessible provider with a Public IP address, making them the perfect trolls that can simply change the IP address every 5 minutes.

Not me, I wish I was born elsewhere. I also stopped using Polish language on the Internet altogether, so I don't have to discuss with people from my country.

So can't there be Dutch districts because of no Dutch localization, or won't you make Dutch districts?

Most people won't care if the NPC's are talking English, as long as the district has been named Dutch, so people can flock to that district. Most of the communicating in a district is between real people anyway.

Money.

There are not enough Dutch people buying the game in Dutchlandia to make A.Net host more servers. Poland got the servers after they noticed that it was profitable to translate the game and add more servers.

There doesn't even have to be a physical server situated in Dutchlandia. Even if it is a 'British server' or German one with the name Dutch slapped onto it, it would be helpful.

I don't even know on what server I am playing when I'm logging in.
