As I can see, many people from India join the game these days.

1. Do you need your national forum.
2. Are there any volunteers to translate SkyLords into Hindi?

I see united states in my profile... but I am actually from India... Is there any place I can change that? Must have done something wrong while registering and just noticed it...

BTW the secret for so many of us from India joining is that your website was recommended in a popular computer magazing called Digit in its latest issue :)

To add.. a national forum would be great...
and if there are no senior players interested I could moderate it...
I will also give a shot to hindi translation... btw what all gets translated?

Your country can not be changed manualy. Everytime you login, your country is detected by your IP address. Maybe you use any proxy server?

Can you scan that article?

I will ask forum developer to add your forum. How it must be called in Hindi?

Further information about game translation can be found here: http://www.skylords.com/com/2358/topic/SkyLords-in-your-language

I am also from India....reading the same article in Digit....:]

But wouldn't Skylords in Hindi sound strange.......

India is a land of many cultures...so different provinces in India speak different languages...Thought almost all understand Hindi a lot have trouble writing it......like myself....:(

What then ?

Trouble with writing with your own, native language? :) I thought Hindi is the official language.

hey zygi....
we have lots of languages here in India and i would say English is spoken more commonly and fluently atleast among the ppl on the net. Not all regions in India have Hindi as one of the main languages.....

guys I would suggest the India forum be in Hinglish as we speak it here... Ib roman script and all native languages allowed..

for the name I suggest "Hindustan Forum"

and ya... I will scan the article and post it :)

do you mean the hindi script? I am not sure if thats a good idea... its very uncommon to see hindi script in general forums... I am not even sure how its done.

Hindi words using roman script is what I meant... i dont think many ppl would be comfortable with hindi script... and many would want to converse in their own lanuages....

other indians give your opinions... personally i think roman script with hinglish (which for non indians is a common mix of hindi english that is the day to day language here) should be the best... and regional languages allowed in roman script.

any opinions there?

sorry zygi... we just arent a one language country!!!!

and if you meant the hindi words... hindustan is hindi for India... and there isnt really any common word for forum...
