He just pondered on this. I have no problem with language. And I would like to know if there are people from all over the world here!

As far as I know, we get people from all over the World. Pretty much expectable.

For myself, I'm from Portugal.

Hi @p4T_ludio  - Welcome to the community! 🙂 

The language of the forum is in English, but we have members from all over the world!

So please consider making community gifts (giveaways) global.

Tank you!

Hi @p4T_ludio and @bbg, 

I totally understand and hear your feedback. I've provided some additional bullets below as to why they're not right now: 

• For contests and giveaways, every country or even certain locations has rules that a giveaway must abide by to be held in their location. With every location being so different, it's very hard to hold one giveaway that would fit every certain requirement they have. Some actually even contradict one another.
• Not only are there increased shipping costs, but there are import fees charged to recipients.
• There are additional costs for translation and localization of legal documentation for the content in certain regions, which triples the cost for us.
• The logistics of sending the items, can be very complicated. For context, it's just Sam, myself, and Wally on our team right now and we personally plan and distribute all the gifts prior to these events (or for any giveaway we host).

Thank you for your patience and understanding! Hope you stick around for other fun things though 🙂

Given that prize distribution will be constrained, this is still a great forum for sharing information about our AMD systems (CPU and potentially GPU) that will help people around the globe.  I have learned things from people in other countries like Norway and yes, even Canada.  

Oh, those Canadians...
