Ok, at the risk of sounding cold-hearted, the love letter translations are ruining the forums. Whenever I want to look at the last 50 postings, they are almost all translation related.
I think the translation requests should still go on the same, but cant we put them in its own section of the forums? And most importantly, make it so the posts in this area DO NOT come up when you look at the last 50 postings. If we changed this, I think the overall quality of the forums would improve dramatically.

Here Here!

+ 100000000!!

They still count as translations though?

I dont know what you mean by "still count". Of course, there is still a place here at the site for translations. I just think that they should be in a different area so they don't dominate the forums the way they do.

A forum suggests a discussion. These translations "very rarely" initiate discussion...

As is, this site is reduced to a personal translation site with the benefit of a forum about Turkey, as opposed to a site about Turkey, the Turkish Language, and small area where personal messages may be translated.

hey keith,

maybe you should post this in the suggestions about turkish class thread??

http://www.turkishclass.com/forumTitle_11_2470

at least admin or the powers that be can have a look at it and it won't get buried amongst the others threads.

Why don't they open only 1 thread with each one name,asking for the translation if T-E ,or E-T,and not open a new thread each time they want a translation,this way we'll reduce the number of threads at the translatşon forum.

How come will it get lost ?
İ mean,say i want a translation,then i open a thread call 'Translation please',and whenever i want another translation,i go to my thread,not open new one.
My request will still be visible,but just the numbers in the Translation Forum will be reduced.
İ remember i tried to make a translation thread for any topic other than love matter,but it get lost,and i won't dare look for it,its no point because it will get lost again among those all many translations threads.

it could still get lost if other people open up many translation requests.

how do we stop them from opening up many translation requests?

also, who will be bothered going in a checking for any updates and/or additional translation requests under each person's name after the initial request?
