This is not true. Most of the visitors wasn't member of the RQ Society. All the visitors from France, Netherlands and some of the brits and american weren't. For the foreign members we have started to do Tradetalk, which all foreign members will get for free. As well as we have translated all our booklets into english (Heroes of Wisdom - the logorrhea - and Rise of Ralios). I don't know any con organizers who has done this before. Or will I see my booklets on Convulsion in german in the near furture. I don't think so. I know that most of our foreign members will get only parts of the benefits of the german members (because they can't read Free INT and have had to wait on Tradetalk a long time), but we hope we will get more material from this members to get more Tradetalk issues per year. Don't blame us to much. We try to do our best.
