its also in iceland, so odds are they would not have many, if any ASL interpreters. Sadly this was prolly something you would of needed to arrange yourself is my guess.

Though, ccp should of at least had some type of printed speeach you could of read, but beyond that...

Also i dunno if iceland has anything like the ADA, but as i already said, an ASL interpreter would of been difficult to get in iceland

maybe it's worth asking the community whether anyone would be able to sign what's being said?



Imagine asking....no....trusting somebody from EvE Online to translate for you.


Hence the *maybe*. I'd like to think we, as a community, could help out.

Well, i did a quick search were i live (Augsburg has just around 40.000 Citizens less than whole Iceland) and i couldn't find an ASL interpreter either and at all there are only 4 GSL interpreters available.
So when ISD Chargin Moose said, Quote: "From what I've been told there are around 24-27 sign linguests in Iceland. None of whichwhich are ASL fluent". End quote
That means Iceland has only 40.000 citizens less than Augsburg, but 6 almost 7 times more sign language interpreters. You might draw your own conclusions about the availability numbers of ASL interpreters europe wide.
Most possibly you find them only in major big cities like Paris, London, Berlin and so on.
