Hi, I don't know how I should translate "Pad". Should I translate it as "Tablet computer"?

No. As I've just added to the documentation for the message: «A pad, in the context of Etherpad, is a notepad, something to write on».

Okay, thanks for the help!

Because "pad" is essentially based on the name of the application (Etherpad), it might even be best not to translate it at all, depending on the language.

pad: Also called notepad writing pad a number of sheets of paper fastened together along one edge.

In doubt, use the full denomination etherpad instead of pad.

I think it's okay to leave "pad" untranslated (although, as McDutchie pointed out, this of course depends on the language)
