+1 SH is the cheerleader of OpenMW, everyone relies on him!

Put it to the polls...

1) keep it as-is
2) keep it as-is, without memes
3) sanitize it (SH writes it, native edits it)
4) someone else write it

Lgro, can you setup an (official) poll for us please?

I voted keep as-is, but I am in favor of anything. If SH really really wants to step down (which I don't want him to, I really like his updates) I might be willing to step in. I'd prefer he kept writing them though, as stated, I like his updates.

Yes, really. I was doing it for years now, even on old board in the ancient times of Niko. I really had enough of this. I want to just write news in polish.

Would you still be willing to write the weeklies in Polish and let someone else "polish it up" in English?

I liked SH's posts, but if he wants to step down then this poll is superfluous and should be closed.

Edit: Just read the other thread. Seems silly if he doesn't want to do it, but do what you want I guess.

He still writes them in Polish and plans on doing the same... but Polish only.

My suggestion is then to let someone then translate from it... like what we already do with other languages.

I could do translation from Polish (SH's weekly) to English, but I will appreciate if someone with native English could check my translation before I post news on blog.

If there is nobody available for the proofreading, I'll do it.
I'm not native English, but I'm sure I'll be able to catch 'em all!

I have proofread and corrected Sirr's posts in the past, and I'm certainly willing to do so in the future.
