if u are true RP, don't be too serious with this issue.

No it's a terrible point, read that shit. That's not characterization, that's someone with a flimsy grasp of the language. There shouldn't be forum speak in game like "slowtard" if the devs are complaining that names and faction names won't fit the atmosphere. Ugly monkey asses just screams "I used babelfish" and the random unnecessary punctuation just hammers home that whoever wrote this doesn't speak english.

I must confirm, that until i started to play Fonline, my english was ok. Now, it is horrible. So +1 to idea.
I am from generation of people, who learned english language from classic 2D point and click adventure games. Today, in our country, we have localizations for every bullshit games, it is worst than ever..

Well, I have to admit there are some flaws in it. But this example isn't THAT bad. ;) There are worse things ingame, concerning dialogues etc. Some typos also.
But I don't want to open a thread everytime when I encounter a typo, or a poor translated dialogue. I agree with you that it would be really usefull if a few helping hands'd take a look at the dialogue files.
Roachor:
I'd be happy to do it if you inboxed me the files, as I said I do this for a living and it bugs me to see easily fixed mistakes in a game I feel invested in.
