Nope. It’s as ‘european’ as are american stuff is ‘world’.
For me and most of the younger people here it could be in swahili with
the very same effect.
There’s no way around than to use english (world) or regional sites.
It’s arrogant to pretend that german site is ‘european’.

Very kind of you :-(
Please have a look at the homepage as of today and count the flags of the
countries: http://www.festum.de/1000steine/
18 MOCs from Germany
10 MOCs from outside Germany
(4 MOCs from Denmark, 3 MOCs from Switzerland, 1 MOC from Sweden, 1 MOC from
Belgium, 1 MOC from USA)
Or all ISCC entries (not all entries public yet):
http://www.festum.de/1000steine/iscc/iscc3/entries/entries.php
34 MOCs from Germany
19 MOCs from outside Germany (5 MOCs from Denmark, 4 MOC from USA, 3 MOCs from
Switzerland, 2 MOC from Sweden, 2 MOCs from Italy, 1 MOC from Belgium, 1 MOC
from The Netherlands, 1 MOC from UK)
Now tell me again whether 1000steine.de is German only or not.
We have several european members there, you can post in the Forum even in
English (and you’ll receive your answers in English too), also German is a
common second language in Europe...
However, IMO it’s not the language that makes a site Local, European or
worldwide, but the visitors and users who are contributing.
Nevertheless: Leg Godt!

PS: I don’t know why you hang on Christians sentence about 1000steine.de being
European, also I don’t spread this thought officially; I only stand up for “my”
website.
