In the last few weeks the number of national tribes and other violations of rule 9 has increased enormously and therefore we will be more strict with it.
§9) Language
Tribal Wars is an English game. English should be the only used language since it is the only language that is understood by everyone! All profiles and descriptions have to be in English. It is not allowed to create tribes just for one nationality or language and to exclude other players because of their nationality. There will be no replies to support requests written in other languages. Repeated violations of that rule will lead to an account ban.
__________________________
ALL players have to follow this rule.
Players have 3 days to fix their profiles (the profiles have to be completely in English).
All national tribes have to find a solution within 7 days. We do not want any more tribes that are clearly intended for one nationality only. We don't want any more profiles in languages other than English. Tribes that have not clearly changed their policy within 7 days will be disbanded without further warning.
Repeat offenders will get banned. We will not accept it anymore that we put in the effort to warn players and they just change it back!
It IS allowed to have a short quote or phrase in another language in your profile. But those should be translated.
Please don't open complaint service requests now or after tribes have been disbanded or profiles deleted.
Also don't open forum topics to complain about this. The rules are very clear in this case and don't have to be discussed any further.
If players don't speak ANY English they are in the wrong game. This is an English game and every player that wants to play it should speak at least basic English.
There are multiple other versions of tribalwars in different languages, players that don't speak English might find the right one for them in there:

This rule has not been implemented because we want to discriminate against certain players. We appreciate players from every part of the world. The diversity is a great part of the game.
The rule has been created because it is a lot of work for the team to deal with players from all over the world. It is impossible for us to understand all other languages and we don't have the time to constantly translate profiles and other messages because they are reported. It is also not fun for players to run into this issue.
