This is not true. Many Germans will have problems writing in English.
I'm reading German fora myself as it is not really a problem for me to read
German. However, I am not able to express myself in German, so I answer posts in
English instead. So far that has not been a problem, and I don't think that
should be a problem here either.
Consider the alternative: Their posts would not be here, including the responses
they generate. So I recommend anyone that has a problem with reading German to
skip the German posts as if they were not there.
