Translate NationStates?

Postby Khingan » Mon Oct 10, 2016 10:58 am

I don't know how you guys think about this but I think it'd be a good thing to translate NationStates into various widely spoken languages like Spanish, German, French, etc.. Obviously, we'd need some volunteers.

I'd like to hear what you think about it - every comment is welcome :)

Manning one English-language version of NationStates is bad enough, but manning many other language communities of NS with relatively small populations would be even worse!

If someone wants to do unofficial translations, that's their prerogative. That said, there's not going to be any official translations. We don't have the manpower.
