    [Suggestions] Auto-Translate terms that could be eliminated

    Q: There have been no updates to the auto-translate dictionary recently. Can we expect any terms to be added in the future?

    A: PlayStation 2 memory limitations have placed us in a difficult situation where the addition of new terms to the auto-translate dictionary would require the deletion of existing entries. [...]
    Currently there is limited space remaining for the Auto-Translate glossary. This thread may be able to give some suggestions to the development team on some terms that could be removed in favour of adding newer terms.

    My suggestion would be that the command terms could be removed from the glossary, as the key concept of the function is to communicate to other players without a language barrier, terms such as </yes> and </wave> are exactly the same in all regions.

    Removing the command terms (which as essentially just shortcut terms for Auto-Complete at most) from the glossary will make room for the more desired terms such as <Trigger azure weakness!> and others found in the PlayOnline Play Guide Glossary.

    there's a term in auto-translate that became obsolete when Level Sync became available: {Let's try to keep the levels of our party members close}.
    It should be the first to go.
