Ok folks, lets spell it out for you:

At least ATTEMPT to type correctly, at least ATTEMPT to use English without tottaly butchering it.
Theres no excuses for the following:
a) Lack of captial letters entirely. This is REALLY annoying to read, be sure to use captial letters at the start of sentances and the start of names. It's basic grammer folks. This is stuff you learn in Primary/Kindergarten/What-ever You Bloody Call it, folks. Stop making yourself look like idiots.
b) Use the Enter key when its logical to.
c) Spelling. I may not be a great speller, but even I can spell things like "The". The fact some people here can't, even when English IS their first language is very depressing.
d) No l33t, no txt, and definately no "lol. Theres a time and a place for lol. Random places in your posts is not it.
e) Double posting for apologising for double posting... just delete the other post, don't go "Sorry for the double post" AFTER you've doubled posted.


For total butchering of the English language, we're starting to hand out warnings.
Make your posts readable in order to stop pissing off the Moderators and Myself.

YES PLEASE

lol

*kicked* If there's one thing that really annoys me, it's twattish application of English...

Take your time and double check your posts if needbe; use a dictionary (www.dictionary.com) if you have to.

And I'll tell you this much myself; there's no way i'm editing all your bleeding typos out everywhere i go.

[Dead Eye]

I was hoping you would address this....I mean, honestly, i don't know how some people get their spelling so bad....I would have make some kind of effort to spell as bad as some people on here.....and some are from America.

Well, i certainly hope this will make some people try to use proper grammer.

[GG Hendrix]

Having too many sodding periods counts as well, Dead Eye! :p

Also ellipsis is three dots (...) anything other than that is ignorance, procrastination or plainly and simply poor grammar.
SO STOP USING FOUR OR FIVE!

Incidentally, can we add "This means YOU bloodzero"?

[Perks]

I may as well say that Firefox 2.0 (it's currently in beta testing, mozilla.org etc etc etc) has a built in spell checker, so people using that (and Safari on the Mac) in future have NO EXCUSES for bad spelling.

Yeah gotta say it, it get's on my nerves a bit. A) They're better off in a compelling fiction novel than online conversation.
B) Even then it's wise not to abuse it unless you're trying to be clever or want to aggravate readers.

Too many dots? That's being rather picky isn't it?

[BlueSonnet]

"Too many...dots that you...speak off...? There's nothing...wrong with the way i...talk...i'm just...busy...you'll forgive me for my...attitude...i have...i have a tragic past...i overall don't speak much...but when i do...it would be so nice...it would be so nice...to have some respect...for although i crave your willy...i have a melancholy destiny...that against my best...intentions...it is a burden i must...undertake.........."

You get the idea Gaga. Give these sorts of people half a chance and they'll vandalise threads as we know, and do take my word for it, a lot of the people i've seen do it are bannable drama queens. Like me...

Sorry this really isn't fair on poor old Dead eye is it. :p

Obveresly that's too many, but just comaplining about someone usingmore than three dots once or twice is a tad fussy.

[Perks]

Everyone just remember: of all the things that forum people can do here, they won't do it as bad as many of my friends do on MySpace.

[BlueSonnet]

Obveresly that's too many, but just comaplining about someone usingmore than three dots once or twice is a tad fussy.

I'm not complaining about the odd one or two, just the odd 20 or 30. It's just common sense i guess.

The original ellipses rant was meant as rhetoric playful scornfulness really, didn't mean much by it actually, hahah :g-winky:


THIS however is going to sound VERY fussy :D
Gaga, stop spelling it wrong, it's "obviously", I want to kill a basket full of kittens every time you do it!111one *WOLVERINE BERZERKER RAGE OMG*

GG Hendrix, he was obviously trying to spell "obversely" you silly man! :p

EDIT: Yeah had to check that word out actually XD

Gosh I never knew a few dots could start a discussion now days.
........ < Discuss!

[gagaman]

"Obviously" is one of those words that my shitty spell checker just can't seem to find when I get it wrong. It either finds something completely different, or nothing at all, even if I'm only couple letters off.

GG, you have an awful habit of wanting to vent out rage by killing things ;p

[GG Hendrix]

I'm out of smokes :p

Needless to say when there's no mods around to be on guard we have a secret weapon :g-ninja:

[GG Hendrix]

I can see it.
(Insert dramatic 1980's fantasy film music here)
T'was an age of darkness and decay that doth descended 'pon the lands of Cosmic Gaga, the Powers that be had long since abandoned it, leaving it to fall into chaos.
Now, one man takes his sword, and sets forth on his mission to rid the internet of Dick-Fuckery.

[BlueSonnet]

Weird thing about that is that Samurai Jack's on my telly at the moment, which as we all know starts with a similar epic speech by Aku (the guy who does the voice was also in the Conan movies to boot). Imagine that.

(we won't go any further with conan in this thread, methinks)

[T3h_Waffleman]

You mean you guys still have Samurai Jack on TV? That sucks for me...

*tune of Samurai Jack theme song....the rap like one*
Gotta kick ass, kick noob ass, Samurai GG Fucking Hendrix!
