It would be a great addition to the game and help for the players if there was auto translation of the alliance message boards. I speak english french and german, but the vast majority of the members of my alliance are Czech. My knowledge of that language is non existant. It's a real pain to copy and paste everything into Bing Translator!
I'd love it if someone could arrange to have auto translation *kissgirl*

Hi.

I think how it's bad idea. One half translated or wrong language is horrible. I think how Chech will be avaible soon (some months).

Auto-Translation is a great idea, but it would cost money to the game. You don't really believe they are going to spend money! *hahaha*

Auto-translation is an option, but as long as we don't have it I would suggest you to join an alliance that communicates in a language you know. You can find out if this is the case by taking a look at the profile of the alliance before joining it, as it is often written in a specific language or mentions the language the alliance communicates in, or communicating with someone who's already in the alliance, before becoming part of it.

Please also keep in mind that the quality of the output of automatic translations depend heavily on the quality of the input. Next to this, automatic translations are often still quite literal, which can lead to even more confusion or misunderstandings.
