Translation of sentences directed at the reader himself/herself
Not quite sure this is the right place for it, but how should we translate direct instructions? If we have, for example, a sentence which reads "Use the Homewrecker to destroy enemy Sappers", should that be translated as "Benutze den Unruhestifter, um feindliche Sapper zu zerstören", "Benutzen Sie den Unruhestifter, um feindliche Sapper zu zerstören", or a more neutral formulation, such as "Man sollte den Unruhestifter benutzen, um feindliche Sapper zu zerstören"? I think we should agree on one version, to keep things consistent. Personally, I'm in favor of the third one. Zoon-li 03:08, 8 February 2011 (UTC)
