Is there way in vbulletin to disable certain forum areas, like the created german forum?

No offense to any germans, but why in the world do we have to suffer for reading german in these forums, I just absolutely don't get it.

I'm very saddened by the fact that you have decided to open such forum here and now the german area/posts pop up in my new posts list. If I want to read german I go to some .de forum. With this decision you're only alienating your existing users. Very sad indeed.

He's not alienating anyone, except maybe you. There are several forums I never read, and having one more on the list doesn't bother me at all.

It would make more sense, e.g. match the other forums, if it were a sub forum of the International section, rather than being a sub forum of the III - 4 - 5 forum.

You know, just from a stylistical point of view.

Agreed. That's where I thought it would be.

Sorry, there's a big world out there and we welcome it all.

Yeah, after it gets going I will probably move it down there... "down there", sounds like some kind of punishment, doesn't it?

Well it could mean a number of things, but I wouldn't advise asking this forum for a list of possibilities.....
