jonnyda1811 - google translating to croatian, he's not even croatian

[btcltcdigger]

So this user (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1039894) did a very very poor translation of DeepOnion ANN thread to Croatian using google translate

As can be seen here:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2133188.0


If you look closely, you can see some parts are left in spanish, which google translate didn't correctly translate

I don't mind people using google to help in translations, but what he left there was a total grammatical shitfest, unreadable. Besides, he's not even Croatian

[The Sceptical Chymist]

That's a huge translation,  but very lazy to use google translate.   Did he get paid to do that shit? 

I think translations need to be done by native speakers of the language being translated,  because GT is way too unreliable--as can be seen clearly here.  Doesn't surprise me in the least that people are incompetent and lazy on this forum.  They'll do anything for pennies even if they're not qualified,  and they'll kill each other for the opportunity.

I'm pretty sure he got some bounty for it.

I'm a native Croatian speaker, and trust me, what he posted is utter garbage. Personally i didn't apply for this bounty, so i'm not doing this for spite or whatever.
It's just, the shit he posted gives a bad name to all people who put effort into translations. Use google translate, i don't mind it, but proof read the work before pasting.

Let me give you an example of his shitty translation:



This is supposed to be Block Explorer.

What he's saying in "Croatian" is translated to english as "Block the Explorer".

Correct translation should be "Istraživač blokova". Yes, it's the grammar! Words are the same, but word placement is not, and that's what GT can't accomplish

indeed,
he's from espanyol and based on his post more likely it's an alt account to join the airdrop.
look at his post history,
you will see a lot of comments in local board [espanyol],
so it's very obvious he's using google translate as a translator.

i will try contact the developer about this and we will see what is his opinion regarding this.
and i am really sure about it(alt account),because it's created only for joining that airdrop,
look at his past history and all of his comments were talking about it.

can he get a negative trust ? because i believe someone like that need to get punished

You know,the shitcoin bounty team doesn't care so why should we ? Most of the translation bounty whores (including erakulai who does hindi translation) simply google translate.I tried to inform the bounty manager couple of times but they don't care and who are managing these bounties anyway ? Some third world broken English speaking scums who can't manage themselves.

He is not spanish, he is portuguese

he translated in portuguese language, but i dont know why  he translate in croatia language now because there are many translation job available for portuguese

I already put negative trust on him

[marlboroza]

You should probably report his thread to moderator or move this topic to Meta.
Btw he broke this rule:
27. Using automated translation tools to post translated content in Local boards is not allowed.

[btcltcdigger]

Hah, he edited his post and removed all of it
