    The website wont let me edit anything on my profile, every time i change it it says: No information published.

     

    EDIT: fixed! just wont let me write in russian

     

    Question: why does it only allow me to whrite in other languages exept Slavic and Asian Languages?

    It's something with the fact that this website is English. And the profile doesn't support HTML so you're out of luck

    The forum source code strips out characters that are unusual, that seemingly includes anything not in Latin-1 (Russian, as well as all hieroglyphic scripts)

    There's a tiny workaround by converting weird scripts to HTML entities, eg ﻱ becomes ﻱ. This could be done in a user-script, but for conciseness' sake, one should filter out specific characters to convert.

    French and German are acceptably similar to English. Russian isn't.

    French and German use the same alphabet as English, with minor changes like accents and diacritical letters already included in the Latin-1 character set.

    No offense intended whatsoever, but does it matter all that much to have non-latin 1 characters in your profile?
