Hello
Can you anyone help me translate this text? The English and Chinese will be used in the registration success page and in the initial email that is sent to New Forumosans

（發帖 is Mainland Chinese term for “post”. I don’t know which style of usage Forumosa wants, but I still went ahead and replaced it with a Taiwanese term.

請告知我們您的會員帳號
（＂選擇＂here doesn’t really need to be translated; it’s not wrong grammatically but the new user might get confused because they don’t really “choose” the ID name from a list the website provides, they just make the names they want. I also replace “提醒” with “請告知”, because the latter is more colloquial. And again, I replace the term “用戶外號” with “會員帳號” just because it’s more Taiwanese.

Forumosa.com的官方語言為英文,
因為本論壇版主們的英文能力多優於中文
（I added “們” as there are more than just one moderator.）
Also, Forumosa is not designed for minors,

同時, Forumosa.com之成立並非針對未成年者, 且版主乃是基於成人心態立場在管理論壇, 故較不適合未滿18歲者.
(I keep the 18 years old part because I thought there might be some kids who can’t understand the hinting. )
Cool. Free Chinese lesson!!
You guys do the good job.
Dragonbabe can be the better for Taiwanese.
