Ideas and suggestions / Idea: Volunteer Translators
« on: February 03, 2013, 07:22:25 pm »
People tend to mistrust anything with even the slightest grammatical error in it when the Internet is involved. We have no idea how many people may have left without even registering because of something as simple as this (I almost did, but registered out of curiosity).
I understand English is a difficult language to learn. Even native speakers have trouble with it. My solution is as follows.
1. Translate using the same method the site has been doing.
2. The context is now understandable, allowing for a volunteer, given that thy know English fluently, to translate further, even if the translator does not know the Russian language.
3. These people will act as unpaid volunteers, knowing that the game will attract more people. If asked, they should have their in-game name in a list in the wiki for contributing to the game.
Thank you for your time.
