So, i was looking at a thread (this is not a TAAT) about pronunciation of a word, and it turns out the OP was not from the UK. I nearly put, well why ask on a mainly UK site, but then thought, i dont know if thats right?

Now, i know not everyone is from the UK, and i was wondering what kind of breakdown we have

I'm UK

You were wrong. I think you will find people from all over the world are on this. And why not ;-)

I think I thought it because it was started in the UK

It's interesting, where are you from

It's ran in the UK but not exclusively for UK users.

I'm from the UK though.

Many users are ex pats too.

American, living in the UK! I’m also the daughter of immigrants so I have family all over.

Well I was born abroad but I am in the UK now, and I am British too.
It doesn't sit right with me when people say/ think I am not from here and I speak fluently enough to be able to question the pronunciation of a word
I guess we will never be accepted 100%

I'm from Brum, but now an immigrant / expat in Sweden.
