I have a bad feeling about the general reaction to this topic...

Asking for technical assitence seems pretty legit to me ...

What kind of translation experience do you have. Have you passed the Japanese competency test. I don't think anyone is going to do hack work for you unless you prove that you are a reliable translator.

This guy asked for a table, and he got ripped apart. I figured that someone asking for the text to be dumped, which would involve making a table, would get the same reaction.

I highly doubt asking for a table alone was why he got ripped apart...

Because his spelling is terrible.

please please please don't use kanji i would rather have the symbols
Uh, if he could really translate, he'd be able to handle the kanji.
(though he admits later that he was just going to copy someone else's translation, likely without their permission)

I gave amtt text with kanji and she did admirably. Nothing that could be used as-is in a patch, but with some back-and-forth to rectify some context issues, her work could be...workable. ^_^

If nothing else, amtt has more confidence in her skills than I do in mine. With a proper editor, she could be exactly what our little circle needs: another translator.

Regarding Chobits - took a quick look at it, seems as if the text is (given my extremely limited knowledge of encoding formats) uncompressed and based on Shift JIS. I'll have more time to play about with it come Sunday, once my exams are over for the year (though I've got a stack of emails to clear first....)
