Wannes Posted June 26, 2004 Share Posted June 26, 2004 We have a Spanish speaking mod, in fact neowin has a few mods whos primary language is NOT English..We will stay English however because its like others have said, admins have to be able to monitor it all and in a language we can understand. a few? i thought redmak and yourself are dutch so that would make your mother language dutch? or am i seeing this wrong? [saint dark] good point, but i have to deny the forum here. the reason has been stated earlier about the work needed and also when the spanish comes people are going to want a mandarin, african, etc. its not worth the hassle, neowin is a tech site. what you could do is add board languages, these will translate the board in a different language, spanish for example but once again that maybe tricky. once users switch their language to spanish they may think you now can post in spanish.

ECEGatorTuro Posted June 26, 2004 Share Posted June 26, 2004 I can help 'mod' the Spanish forums seeing that I'm Cuban and all? :laugh: I definitely understand the issue and trying to make multilanguage forums will make things difficult. However, I definitely would think it would be cool to be able to talk to my fellow Neowinians in Spanish. :) "Esto no pasa en Cuba!" as my friends in Miami would say if they didn't get their way! :D As Gran Combo would say, "No hay cama pa' tanta gente!" :punk: Where is Celia Cruz when you need her... :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
