I've done a large research and found only 5 people here in the whole forums who was from Finland, including me. Also there's only one thread ever made to Multi language forum where was even little finnish.
Ofc everyone can't speak english well, and they will still come along. There's nothing someone can do about it, so everyone just have to live with this.

Embrace the foreigners. They are not going away. We're here to help each other, after all.

FAST FACT #1: Some of them can write more coherently and with less mistakes than native English speakers.

I'm sorry ... I tried really, really hard not to say it.

... but you mean "fewer mistakes".

Sorry.
