Suggestion: Dutch District
Cracko
I'm Dutch myself and i see LOTS of people talking Dutch in English districts, I think it's time to put up a Dutch district because when i see the people in Italian and Spanish districts, theres like 2 people tops (in normal outposts) so why not a Dutch district? it'll be more populated than Spanish and Italian. Probably even more than France
PS. Yes, i know this is mainly an American forum, but i'm sure theres a lot of European guys out there. Thanks

Yup, I'm Dutch as well and it would be cool For some reason they think "that little country doesn't have much players anyway" -- they're terribly mistaking and probably don't even know the Belgian peolpe also speak Dutch :/

I am Dutch too, and a dutch district would make sense. But I wouldn't use it, since most Dutch people I play with are a lot more arrogant than the other people that use the English district...

I'm not on the European Servers, but if there is a French, Italian, and Spanish District I don't see why they can't have a Dutch District.

Let me tell you why;
I can walk into a random town, start talking dutch, and have a 99% chanche of someone understanding what I am saying.
Today I went into random arenas and got into a 3/4 dutch group.
7/10 times there is someone else from the netherlands in a PUG in PvE
And it seems to me there are more dutch guilds than english recruiting.

Well, i'm Dutch but i normally speak English, Dutch is soo boring :P, It's true, Guild Wars has alot of Dutch players (comparing to the amount of Italian and Spanish players :P), but i don't think a Dutch district is neccesery..

Well yes all dutch can speak proper english, but I disagree on the dutch is boring part; you can express yourself much better in Dutch, and I tend to speak dutch as much as possible, since I am, what we would call a "taal fetishist". But I honestly do not know the english word for that.
Hmm nu nog een Frysk district en dan ben ik tevreden

If it happened I'd miss out on yet another group of people so I'd be disappointed to have you all go. Still, I can't begrudge you a language-specific district. Best of luck!

I want to know Anet's reasoning behind there being no Dutch district. (Gaile?). There are far more Dutch players than Spanish or Italian, yet they have districts, usually with only 4 players in. And then in the English districts you get half of the people talking Dutch.
Anybody who wants to speak English or play with English players can still do that - I play with French, German, Spanish and Italian players all the time because they were in the English district, but the important thing is they were speaking English, and if they want to speak their own language, they have somewhere to do it.
So yeah, make a Dutch district please so that I don't have to feel like I'm already there.

So what language you use for the game and districts are linked. I don't see Dutch district happening unless they add Dutch language support for the game.

I want all those country districts to go away and just Europe 1, 2, ....
That will make it somewhat easier to find a team, instead of switching between English, German and French.
Do the US servers have districts for every US state?
Or is there just US 1, 2, .....
And, not all Dutch do speak English, but most of them can communicate enough in the language to play the game.
Most of the time I see little more than "glf monk", "lfp". "<profession> lfp",
"noob" and that sort of language.
After searching for a monk a few times on the various servers, I can ask for them in English, German and French. Just check how others do that and repeat
