Grammar.

Postby Crimson Mafia » Wed Oct 31, 2007 1:18 pm

Don't give me this, "THIS ISN'T AN ENGLISH PAPER LOLZOR OMG STFU!!1!"

You kids are 17,18,19 - LEARN HOW TO WRITE. I guarantee that the people who use the incorrect form of "their" here will use the same incorrect form of it on their mid-term. You cannot just switch it on and off like you may think.


YOUR - Possesive as in ... "I do not support YOUR decision to fuelbase for 75 hours at a time."

YOU'RE - Contraction of "YOU ARE" as in ... "You run from every raid. YOU'RE pathetic. Go kill yourself."

THEY'RE - Contraction of "THEY ARE" as in ... "Wow, I got SHed by that shitty SSBM team again. THEY'RE god-awful."

THERE - A place, as in ... "Check out those two kids giving FKs in the corner. Lets go over THERE and steal one."

THEIR - Possesive as in ... "Damn, that sucks; Piccolo and TD got THEIR tanks deleted."

IT'S - Contraction of "IT IS" as in ... "IT'S amazing that abc can play for 1500 hours and still suck so badly."



Honestly people, it's not hard.

From now on, posts with excessive grammar mistakes will be deleted to keep my IQ from dropping any lower by reading these pathetic attempts at communication.

An occasional slip is fine, but I hate when kids constantly have grammar issues.

I'm sorry, did I make you feel bad? Did I claim to be better than you? I didn't realize this was a pissing contest. I merely provided examples for people to hopefully improve their horrific grammar mistakes. If you do not like to speak proper English and would prefer to forever speak like a caveman, more power to you. Does it make you feel special to declare others scum when you come off completely hostile and condescending yourself? Well done, sir. Well done.

Since you love perfect grammar so much, i'll correct this last post of yours.

I'm sorry, did I make you feel bad? Insecure perhaps (this was not a sentence; it was a fragment)? I merely provided examples for people to hopefully (well, incase you didn't know, you can't use the word, "hopefully" like you do in this sentence. Because hopefully is an adverb, what you basicaly just said is that people should know when they can't use a word while hopking at the same time...)improve their horrific grammar mistakes. If you do not like to speak proper English and would prefer to forever speak (This is a split infintive...please never again place a worde in between "to" and the verb to which it is reffereing" like a caveman, more power to you. Does it make you feel special to declare others scum when you come off completely hostile and condescending yourself? Well done, sir (fragment). Well done (fragment).

Personally, those little mistakes don't bother me. When i type shit online, i really don't give a fuck if it has good grammar. Since you do care, however, i felt that i should help u out a little.

Very well, I accept your surrender.

Honestly, if that's the best comeback you have, you might as well quit now and save yourself some embarrassment.

Power to Crimmy.

I hate reading posts with excessive grammar mistakes, probably why I just skip over IH2DA's posts. It's about time someone just told it like it is :\

Plus Crimmy won't lose mod LOL.

I find the faster that people are able to type, the better their spelling is on the boards because they don't need to bother with text language :l

Run on sentences, sir.

Also Dabomb, I'd like to point out that the sentences you labeled as fragments in Crimmy's post is actually a stylistic device called a 'Short Emphatic Statement'. Next time lets try not to just copy and paste his paragraph onto word.

The time it would save for me would be of no significance whatsoever, maybe a few seconds :shrug:

Like Nate says, it would take more time for me to write spastically by leaving out vowels and stuff than it would for me to type properly, because one letter just naturally follows the other :shrug:

As for abreviations (stfu etc.), of course you can use them ^_^


Also I find a post is much easier and quicker to read if it has proper spelling/grammar, so I'm just helping you guys out ;)
