How come this forum is all in English? And why are there more English people than Poles? Is this a sinister version of 'Polska da się lubić'?

As it says on the homepage, it's "Poland for Tourists and Expats".

It's clearly not aimed at Polish speakers.

And it's an American site - most "Polish-Americans" can't even speak Polish anyway.

You only see it if you're not logged in.

They keep changing it, though.

Right now, it says "All about Poland. Polish News and More".

There never seems to be much "Polish News" on here, either... lol :)

This site is aimed at ppl who want to know about Poland. Maybe because they plan to visit Poland, maybe plan to go live there, have an interest in Polish history, customs, food and the like or are of Polish descent or have a general interest in Poland. This site is not per definition aimed at Poles. And since there are more other ppl than there are Poles in this world, it might be handier to carry the English language if you want to reach those other ppl :)

Hope this helps.
