Translator Applications by Posighdun February 15, 2017 at 3:02 AM UTC
In the Q/A session a few weeks ago I said that I would be opening translator applications very soon and restructuring the role of a translator. If you speak a language other than English, at a decent level, and you’ve always wanted to help Avicus in some form then may I suggest you apply for translator.
What’s a translator? Any specific languages?
A translator is someone who translates a language. We’re open to all languages but Spanish is probably a priority.
What would I do? How much time would I have to commit? How much work is involved?
You would be responsible for translating things such as rules, Atlas, announcements and various other things. An hour or so at most per week. You would be working with others who speak the same language, so you won’t really be bombarded with work.
Do I get anything from it? Any rules?
A cool badge. You also get access to staff discord, crowdin and some other stuff. You would be required to follow the Avicus Code of Conduct, but I’ll explain that more to the people who are accepted.
How do I apply? Any requirements?
Shoot me an email at [email protected] and include the following; IGN, age, discord tag, languages you are fluent in other than english, how fluent you are in them and why you would like to become a translator.
Only requirements are that; You have discord,you are active on all avicus platforms and have 1 day ingame time. You also cannot be banned on any Avicus platform.
(Joke applications will receive a two week website and ingame temporary ban, and yes I’ll easily be able to tell who sends in a joke application.)
Good luck. I’ll answer any questions below if you have any.

I did some of the pirate speak translation suggestions for Atlas... is that worthy of a translator rank?Mr_Ant87 February 15, 2017 at 8:02 AM UTC
I might try my hand with applying for Japanese translations, although I'm certainly not fluent with it so that might be a little bit of a problem.flyofff February 15, 2017 at 8:02 AM UTC
I could have helped with Turkish, but it's just me knows Turkish so wouldn't change anything :pDaFrozenBlaze February 15, 2017 at 9:02 AM UTC

Hey, this application, it seems to me, goes to nowhere. Green sign near my nick looks nice, but I applied not for that, I want to translate.Maybe I lose something, but you should give us some instructions and something to translate.
