How to switch the forum to english

1. click on "Mein Profil" (at the upper right corner
   
2. click on "Einstellungen" (second Tab)
   
3. where it says "Sprache" you can select "Englisch" (which obviously means "english")
   

done




from the old forum:

It already has happened several times that some non-german-speaking members in this part of the forum have accidently deleted / edited / quoted Posts or short messages falsely.

I think the same would happen to me if I had to navigate in a French or Spanish (or [insert_your_country_here ] ) Forum.
therefore, here are the most important commands you'll have to handle:

[hr]
if anything's missing (or wrong) drop me a line using a Kurznachricht (you can look that up in the list ) or post here

alternatively, you could use
http://www.dict.cc/?l=e

it's a very good online translation tool (at least for single words, i haven't tried sentences yet)

Addition: the search-Dialogue:
(use it! )

As Shoggy told me, some people have problems creating an account. So here are the most important translations needed during the registration.

[table]
[tr][td]Registrieren[/td][td]register[/td][/tr]
[tr][td]Benutzernamen wählen  [/td][td]choose your nickname[/td][/tr]
[tr][td]Nur zur Identifikation beim Einloggen. Sonderzeichen
im Namen kannst Du nach der Registrierung in
Deinem Profil einstellen.  [/td][td]This is your login-name only. You can choose the Name to be displayed in your profile.[/td][/tr]
[tr][td]Es muss eine gültige E-Mail Adresse sein.  [/td][td]this must be a valid email-address[/td][/tr]
[tr][td] E-Mail Adresse nicht anzeigen  [/td][td]do not show your email in public[/td][/tr]
[tr][td]Ich stimme zu  [/td][td]I accept[/td][/tr]
[tr][td] Ich stimme nicht zu [/td][td]I do not accept[/td][/tr]
[tr][td]Danke für deine Registrierung. Du wirst sofort eine
E-Mailmit deinem vorläufigen Passwort erhalten. Nachdem Du es zum ersten einloggen benutzt
hast, kannst (und solltest) Du es in deinem Profil ändern.  [/td][td]  Thanks for your registration. You will shortly receive an email containing your temporary password. You can (and should) change it in your profile.[/td][/tr]
[tr][td]the email contains:[/td][td]  [/td][/tr]
[tr][td]Dein Benutzername ist XXX[/td][td]your username is XXX[/td][/tr]
[tr][td]und Dein Passwort ist YYYYY[/td][td]and your password is YYYYY[/td][/tr]
[/table]

again, if there's anything wrong or missing... aaah, I see.
if there's anything missing you can neither post here or write me a short message... so here's my email-address:
wolf (a) mi-wgnetz.de - just in case...
