kazameltis Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 How do you make more efficient ways of recruiting people for VN translation projects?

Proofreader-2/5 4.Editor-3/5 5.Beta tester-1/5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clephas Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 Hackers are as hard to find as translators. Editors are as plentiful as leaves on the ground in autumn, though good editors are rarer than natural diamonds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 I think you are not wrong! i think that's roughly it. Although I would make editors 1/5 (same as proofreader) and beta testers are 0/5 (because ppl want to play the game). try gbatemp? not sure if they allow advertising for non-console releases. neogaf if you have an account? heck, try anywhere. try baka-tsuki, try manga-updates, try animesuki (use the 'classifieds' thread), myanimelist, anidb, try asking on IRC channels in some TL groups, try mangagamer/JAST forums, Aksys games. u seriously have to try everywhere. Also look for posts on twitter or tumblr or groups on facebook. if all else fails: www.blackhatworld.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
