We do have people who speak other languages besides English in the States.

Try coming to my upper-middle-class predominately white, skilled-trade and white-collar neighborhood some day and visit the local Dunkin Donuts. Most of the people there don't speak -or- understand the language of the neighborhood they're in. Trying to explain that you want 2 sugars instead of 3 in there is about as enjoyable as experimenting with your fingers in the blender and hitting the pulverize button just to see if the fatty pieces will splatter a pretty design on the ceiling.

In a game that is created by the English-speaking population, which desires to cater *mostly* to the English-speaking population, I don't see any problem with having an English-only rule.
