SUGGESTION: Removal of geoblocking languages

So I created a club the other day and I wanted the club tag to be written in a foreign language. Turns out that for (only) ingame, there is a "geoblocker" (blocking characters from being used that aren't apart of that country or set of countries belonging to that region). This is a small issue but with no mention of this nature anywhere that I could find. This is a problem that extends far beyond just club tags and club names though. There are some players out there from different regions who play on different servers than their own, to see if they are more or less challenging than the one that they use normally. With even a small amount of people doing this, languages should be something that should be shared among all people and not restricted.

Im posting here because support staff told me to post my suggestions here, and so here my suggestion is. Im suggesting the remove of the geoblocker currently in place for languages that are not natively spoken in that country. This shouldn't have to be done, it should already be in-game, already able to use your native tongue while playing instead of having to say nothing at all in some cases.

Moral of the story: Not everyone speaks english as a first language and some of those people that don't speak english as a first language, have difficulties with the language and may not be at a gcse english standard. By allowing all language characters ingame, this would remove that problem and allow people to express themselves how they want to.
