We don't currently allow German. But as long as you have an exact copy in English, Spanish, or French of your German website, that would be fine.

To make it clear: Can I host here a site with hungarian interface, as long as I have an english interface too?
Or the content(forum posts, site news, etc.) must be english too?

I'm on the no-ads server.

I looked around, and found the answer (I think so):
I could have a site in my language as long, as it has a default english, or french or spanish language.
I would like to know why is this restriction. These are the languages that the staff members understand? Or it has some kind of connection with the ads?
What about the forumposts, comments, etc?

The main website that is hosted on your account (primary website) must be in english, french or spanish. The reasoning behind this is that these are the languages that the Staff members understand.

You may however have a secondary website in a different language, but the main website MUST be in either English, French or Spanish!

As for forum posts on your forums, I am not entirely sure. I presume they must also adhere to the English, French or Spanish restrictions.

So --thereticaly-- this restriction CAN be changed, if some hungarian/german/foobar folks joins to the staff.

It could be a solution, if I have a disclaimer for the forum?
"Every comment, post represent the opinion of the user who sent it, and if you see something inappropriate please contact the site admins for moderation."

So the customer's responsibility obeying the teo, and the staff has the rights to force the customer to observe them.
And the end-user responsibility obeying the site's rules, and the Customer is in charge for moderation of the users.

This is what I think.
Whats your opinion about this?

We have had this discussion about languages before. People have offered to be the account manager for that language, but the administrators do not understand the language, hence why it has been refused!

Thx, I will dig out the old topics, and read about the official standpoint.
But fortunatly at this moment it isn't a problem for me, because I use my account only for developing, not running a living site.

I believe that the ads also play some part into the languages.

I thought that too. English content is much more paid by adsense, than hungarian.

When the only thing is, to understand, what is there standing on the page, then it should be enough, when i make a second forum or so, where the topics are written in English. Or something like a big description, where i shown up, what i will do, what i have to do and so on. Cause in Germany, we've got a "Impress um" law, that say, every Forum Admin have to look, what the users do. But how is it on this server? Other English sites for free hosting allows German content, because the owner of the side is responsible for contents, and not the operator of the service.
And an exact copy of an German Forum in English is not easy to handle, cause i can't translate all the posts...
Or what have other people to do, that you can allow it in the future?
I hope, this little question or suggestion will be heard
