It might not be the most popular things to suggest but as Siemens products are used worldwide, I wonder why this forum isn't English only. I think most people, who work with Siemens products for their job, also need to have some basic knowledge of the English language. Take care, my native language isn't english either but in my opinion, it's a pity that lots of subjects are discussed several times in different language part of the forum. Several examples or solutions are not seen cause they are answered in a different language part of the forum. I can read and understand some german and french as well but I can't reply to those threads cause my writing if not good enough. Anyway, the point is if this were an english written forum only, I think everyone can read all others' posts and respond to all and learn from all. One big family, you know...? It could save let's say 75% of moderators work too (reduce work from 4 language parts of the board to 1). Anyway, it's only a suggestion. Brgds. |

OFT Yes, of course you didn't like the "funny" idea. Specially during campaign is the time to clarify that. (Specially I don't think SteBo has exactly that in mind). It is not correct in ranking list to include a posts from other then international version of forum.A good idea is in German spoken of forum to have a separate campaign as there have a lot of members which aren't visit English version. Really I am impressed howVithani,Amit_86,Ammy,Lucky123...(staying in English version) are trying to get the first place in ranking list (just they are staying in first 10). Sorry guys - this is not possible. Back to the proposed idea of SteBo - yes, I am fully agree with him. If someone wants to share, to help - (as the main rule is - official language is English) write in English and here only. As there exist a lot of different spoken version of Siemens Automation. Almost all the countries has own spoken forum. Best regards, Hristo Mihalev

Dear Users, please, stay calm, ... I agree, that the english spoken conferences are more frequented. Roundabout 75 % of the posts are published within the english spoken part of the Technical Forum. And most of them aren't available within the german part. But there is a big german community too. Of course we thought about which languages should be available. And we decided consciously that we will start with these two languages. There are a lot of reasons. One is already given by Ayman Elotaifythat we are still a german company. I'm thinking it is a good way to offer as much people as possible the possibility to discuss difficult technical questions in their native language. It is difficult enough to find the correct words to describe the technical problems. If other languages getting more important here, maybe there will be third or forth, ... part of the Technical Forum available Meanwhile, I have to say, that every idea and every question is always welcome. We moderators are always very interested in your opinions. And of course during campaign all of you spend more time here. So it is comprehensible that exact during this time a lot of ideas about the platform and the community are published. I have to say, that we moderators will take some time to discuss about all the ideas in-depth internal. But all of them are noticed. Sorry for the late reply, but I could type my message as quick as the responses were published here Anyway, enjoy the campaign Best regards CS Moderator |

Thanks UMENCHO for appriciation and I know its not Possible to get on the TOP with English version only. I felt same in last campaign also. Although we are trying hard, its being difficult to get max points for the day What I feel is, people who are in both Forum have additional advantage and more scope so in this way its being unfare competition I agree with you and suggested in other thread that there should be two differentcampaign or as you said, seperate ranking List Regards Devesh |
