1) The charter does not forbid writing in German

2) The posting is marked in the topic as German
 -> Those who are not capable in understanding German but interested in the
contents are free to use a free online translator
 -> Those who are not capable in understanding German and not interested in the
contents: Why do you complain?

3) When I post in German it is because I do not have the additional time to
translate it on my own.

4) If you ask then: "So why don't you originally write in English?" I answer:
Because I already posted the message on 2 German boards.
