Nonamericans in this forum

Post Reply New Topic

Hi! I am from Colombia and in some things I feel quite strange in this forum, I want to know if there are more non-americans here.

Yep, this one is English

Southern hemispherian here.

English from the North

I'm from Finland.

There are plenty of non-Americans here, but I get the impression that USA-based members form the great majority. The forum often goes very quiet when it is midnight to 8 am American time.

Maybe the majority are Americans. But not the great majority.

The non-American presence on WrongPlanet is considerable.

I can't recall ever seeing a post from a member living in mainland China, which is perhaps surprising for a country of over 1 billion people. Presumably this is related to government control of the internet?

Don't know of any Russian-based members either.

Its an American-based English speaking forum.

Probably slightly more than half of the folks here are American.

Of the rest maybe half of them are from somewhere else in the "Anglosphere" (countries founded by settlers from England). Britain itself, and Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa.

The remaining quarter are folks from everywhere else in the world.

Britain/the UK itself seems to be second only to the US in number of WP members. Which is to be expected in an English speaking forum because the UK is the second biggest English speaking country after the USA.

About the same number of folks come from Finland as come from India. Which is odd because India has one fifth of the World's population, and Finland has a microscopic sized population. Have never seen anyone from mainland China .

One popular high profile member was a young lady from South Korea who has been awol for awhile. Not surprisingly no one on WP is from North Korea.

But I have never seen anyone from Japan.

you're from Columbia. There are a fair number of Latin Americans (mostly Brazilians) whom Ive encountered on WP.

Europe here (Germany)
