I've visited Chinese forums today. Admin does his best, but the forum engine is awful. Yeah, we can use google translater to read their posts, but when we login interface remains Chinese (the same with posts). And this is a problem. Also I'm against writing in Chinese in english subforum. Admin wrote that almost all chinese know english. Sounds unbelievable yet.
Compare for instance with this forum. We try to keep alsmost all elemenst in both languages. I switch to english interface and find no differences.
