OP wanted to use the fact that not everyone’s first language is English as proof the forum is going downhill when that just isn’t true 
I honestly felt kinda personally attacked because it isn’t my first language either and I regularly speak with people who don’t speak English at all or do not have the opportunity to learn amount of English I got to learn.
I believe the forum is doing just fine. except for #discussion
OP and literally anyone can flag any bad posts since it’s not like 10000000 new members who have
in a single topic.
