Might be human logic but it doesn't mean its right. Zone is looking for workers who speak english quite well and I'm going to stop before I offend you or the other dutchies (minus dan).

I can't speak for the events team, but I know that the FAQ team is always open to hiring those who speak languages besides English. We want to hire those who don't speak English.

For reasons of simplicity I used the example of Dutch, but other groups can do the same thing. I know at times Zone had a large number of French speaking players.

The Dutch players don't have the best understanding of English, but they are able to help other Dutch players. The FAQs that don't speak English as a first language now have tags ex: Jasper - Dutch - (FAQ)

The events team can hire non English speaking ETs as well. All that is required is someone able to translate a bunch of messages. For example if we translate a message, we can prepared the message for player who speaks Dutch (Ex: <account> won the event!), they are able to insert the account name in those messages written before the event.

I admit there are some instances those messages won't work, but those messages can deal with a large part of not speaking English. Even though Dutch players don't speak English as a native language, with hard work the Dutch players can overcome those difficulties. Another advantage of hiring staff members able to speak different languages is in some instances the Dutch players are able to cover time zones that English speaking players are not able to cover.

For one, that's not realy human logic/nature. Secondly, this isn't voting.

FAQs give information to players. ETs host events, which realy you don't need to understand too much to participate. Why you're Temp-PA and not ET though is beyond me. You've been "Temp-PA" for quite a long time. Pretty sure their rights are barely different.

@SN: Yes you have advantages but you also have disadvantages and Zone doesn't have players who are timid. If they can't understand what a staff member is saying they will mouth off at the person or complain really heavily. This tends to lead to staff complaining to higher staff to have a person locked or even lock the person themself. It would be good to have staff who can speak english (as well as their language) and yes other languages but the primary language spoken on graal is english. If you want to have different divisions thats nice but be ready for the backlash that will follow.

@Revo: I wasn't pwned. You might want to learn what that means. It wasn't an argument between me and SN it was merely me speaking my mind and him replying.

Although it could be 'human knowledge' it shouldn't be counted as a vote because you'd have a bias opinion towards friends.

note: this thread is made for visual and for my curiosity and not a way of getting hired as ET. They will announce once they wish to see a new ET so please don't think you will get hired if you get recommended here.
Staff don't delete this thread please I just want to see what people would recommend.

It's not even about voting.
