Posted August 1, 2020 Hello, how will CA Assistants work on the new non-english chat? Will there be any? If so, is there any way to apply to it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 1, 2020 I wonder if there is any CA/CM/GM who speaks Polish. 😉 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 3, 2020 Presumably you apply in the normal way, via the thread in GM halls? And there seem to be more Polish staff than any other non-English, last I saw. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do we have any Polish staff? Who? 😉 Last time I heard Non-English CA_HELP was took over by our Russian folks. It would be worth to change the idea a bit - you could have a list of preferred languages in your profile and people could be sorted out in chats according to them, so I could e.g. have Polish and English CA_HELP open (would be fun to pick Latin too :D). It is very hard to find anything in a sea of languages you do not understand. Edited August 3, 2020 by Platyna Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted August 3, 2020 I saw we have a spanish community so we should at least have that! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 4, 2020 (edited) I notice the MMO Ryzom is now using something called DeepL which apparently can recognize when someone is typing in a foreign language and automatically translates it into English. Might not be a perfect solution (look at cellphone "autocorrect" bloopers for how this can be as frustrating as it is helpful) but it also might be worth considering only for the "NonEnglish" help channel, or for an "AUTO-TRANSLATE" tab  see  https://massivelyop.com/2019/08/16/ryzom-tests-multi-language-chat-translator-and-whips-up-a-new-map/  https://app.ryzom.com/app_forum/index.php?page=topic/view/29869   https://www.deepl.com/en/blog.html  https://thefrenchalizer.com/machine_translation_and_gameloc/   Edited August 4, 2020 by Brash_Endeavors Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 5, 2020 Or we can hire non-english speakers from the community. There is plenty of us here who would be willing to assist. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
