I'm pretty sure Caret was making a personal opinion statement as opposed to being surprised at the language.
Tolle Sache das Heft. Wollt ihr das ?fters machen? Wenn ja, dann verwendet bitte nicht mehr Comic Sans oder ?hnliche Schriften auf dem Titelblatt, das sieht halt sehr unprofessionell aus. Ansonsten find ichs super, dass sich Leute solche M?he gebe, um ein Fanzine zu erstellen.
Wie viel Leser habt ihr denn damit erreicht?
Ich w?rde euch dann auch gerne mal meine Custom Map ?bermitteln, wenn sie denn irgendwann in absehbarer Zeit fertig wird.
Danke f?r's Lob! 
Die Schriftart auf dem Cover ist zwar nicht Comic Sans, aber ich gebe zu, dass sie so ?hnlich aussieht. Danke f?r den Tipp. Uns gef?llt's zwar so, aber vielleicht basteln wir ja trotzdem f?r eine der n?chsten Ausgaben auch mal an einem anderen Design.
Wie viele Leser das Heft bisher gelesen haben, weiss ich nicht. Ich k?nnte zwar in der Server-Statistik nachgucken, wie oft die Seite aufgerufen wurde, aber dann k?nnte ich nicht unterscheiden, wer wirklich Leser ist und wer nur mal kurz drauf geguckt hat. So viel kann ich aber sagen: R?ckmeldungen haben wir zwar noch nicht so viele, aber die wenigen, die wir haben, sind durchgehend positiv.
Jop, wollen wir ?fters machen. Am liebsten monatlichen, wenn wir das zeitlich hinkriegen. Die n?chste Ausgabe ist f?r Anfang M?rz geplant.
Eine Custom Map w?re toll. Ich freu mich schon drauf, denn da k?nnen wir als Vielzocker generell immer Nachschub gebrauchen. 
On the other hand you mentioned Portal in L4D2, that one is new to me. Gotta check it out later
Also if you'd have written it in English you may have more readers now
Anyways, I'll be waiting for the next issue to see how your series is gonna continue. For a first issue it wasn't bad.
Das Hammer Tutorial k?nnte n?tzlich f?r mich werden. Das als Einsteiger in der Muttersprache zu lernen ist dann wohl doch einfacher. Sch?n zu sehen dass es hier weitere deutsche User gibt. Wirkliche Portal Fans die sich mit dem Leveldesign besch?ftigen und sich wirklich in die Franchise reinh?ngen findet man dann doch nich wirklich oft. :)
Loosely translated:
Cool thing, I will track and read the full magazine at the next opportunity. The Hammer Tutorial could be useful for me. As a beginner it's much more easy to learn something when it's written in your first language. Great to see that there are other german users here. Sometimes it's hard to find other true Portal Fans who are really into the level design and the franchise iself. :)

This is an english speaking board only, just FYI.
Haha, sorry. I translated my other post for the english users. I hope it's okay this way.

It's obvious when people use translators, which in a lot of ways is more annoying. Just learn the language if you're going to insist on using it, tbh.
I'm so sorry really. I was hoping my english weren't too bad. I don't really post much here anyways because I don't want to spam this forum with broken english.
