Language barrier is a little thick here because I'm not positive what you are saying, but I think you're trying to say they should have a volunteer translate it instead of an employee. Bad idea. Seems like once a year I hear about a product that gets something translated wrong by a slighted employee to embarrass the company. Having a volunteer do it, when you have no way of checking it in house, is PR suicide.
True, there's a reason that many companies do not rely on volunteer work for their products. It's called liability concerns.
The bottom line is that this is Cryptic's decision, and at the present they have decided not to. No amount of begging will change that until and unless Cryptic--and Cryptic alone--sees that the benefit of creating a Spanish localization outweighs the cost of making one. They're not going to just do it "for the love of the game", unfortunately. It's a business decision. Cost versus benefit.
I really don't know any other way of making this point.

Closing this down. There is no need to argue an opinion and that is all that is being done here. Opinions have been said and this thread is done. In the future, please refrain from power posting and arguing as there is no need for such when conveying an opinion. The Original Post was enough.
