All will be revealed in due time, but I might be needing some translators. Depending on how many languages are listed here, and how frequent they appear within the community, will affect whether I need a translator for it. If there are enough, edit2 comes into play.

NPC level of English. Little to no German and Russian. And natively Polish for the maximum level of warmth, Bigos, Pierogi and Kotleciki.

It's not really like that.
In Croatia we speak Croatian, Croatian language is one of the official languages of the EU. That's what they taught me in school anyways.
I would suggest other languages to be added so there are no confusions.
It is really like that, schools dont nessesery teach kids what is truth. It was same language , i am old enough to know that, before war, serbo-croatian was only language that was tought in all schools in ex-Yugoslavia, but current education system do all it can to try to change language/s so it will appear they are diferent.
Now we have Serbian, Croatian, Montenegrian, Bosnian etc, but, despite all eforts of morons in goverments, kids from our countries dont have any trouble to understand each other in forums, or everyday comunication.

Just to make it clear: Difference between Serbian and the rest of the ex-Yugoslavia languages is the same as difference between English and American-Australian-New Zeland-South African "language" -there is non except of accent and local dialect.
Introducing those new languages at the end of a 20'th century is a political bullshit to justify creation of new states and nations after breakup of Yugoslavia.
If,for example USA would break into smaller "states/nations" would there be a Texan language? Or Floridan,NY,Montana or Virginia language? Of course not,all those would be called English,not evan American.
Same thing with Serbian and the rest of ex-Yu languages.
Hell,so called "Montenegrin language" is officially introduced and accepted by US just a few month ago.
History and linguistics do not mean anything in modern days politics,anything is possible.

Croatian, Serbian, Bosnian, Montenegrin, Slovenian, English and a bit of Italian. Some'd say I'm a polyglot if there was an actual difference between the first 5 (Slovenian does differ a bit at least), as mentioned in the post above.

The South African "language" as you put it is called Afrikaans, and it's been a thing for near on 200 years, while only being officially recognized since the 1900's. The other South African "languages" are Southern Sotho, Tsonga, Tswana, Swati, Xhosa, Nothern Sotho, Ndebele, Zulu and Venda. Only two of which are easily recognized as dialects.

They're their own languages, not dialects of others. No one says that English isn't still just English in any of those countries you listed.
