Bad Grammer on FFR?

[Miyaka Takashi]

I was on a friends page, and I noticed this:

HammyMcSquirrel

FFR Overall Rank: 43
FFR Games Played: 15,003
FFR Multiplayer Level: 22
Member for: 1 years

My mom is an English teacher, and it sort of bugs me, do you think we could fix this problem?

[darkshark]

It fixes itself the second it hits 1.01 years.

[NarutoFoxDemon]

But still...it's kind of annoying...

[~HentaiXXX~]

i never really noticed...the only times that will ever happen are .01 years, and 1 years, so just don't worry about it.

This is really inconsequential when you look at everything on FFR. A lot of posts depict far more grammar errors than that one little mistake.

I mean there is an entire grammar thread and just look at how some people have posted in that thread.

[mead1]

Yeah, whining about grammatical errors of no importance make you look very cool and intelligent.

So does calling Hammy a friend.

Bad Grammer

[Tokzic]

yeah the only reason i came into this thread was to laugh at op for nitpicking grammar yet being a horrible speller

Sure, as soon as you learn to spell "grammar".

And if your claim to the cultural elite is the fact that your mother is an English teacher, gtfo and get a little bit of culture and education, you witless f***. For the most part, English teachers tend to be at the bottom of the barrel, since they are usually English majors in college. And English majors, well... are usually the dim-witted ones.

The reason it says "1 years" is not because the FFR admin who programmed it cannot understand grammar, but because the number is all that is interchanged. It makes no difference to the rest of us, because we are all intelligent and well informed enough that we don't get all whiny about it. If it makes you more comfortable, an applicable translation would be "1 year(s)".

By the way, the second comma in your sentence should be a semi-colon. Glad to see that your excellent English-teaching mother has taught you so well.

What the hell, Organism. See you in a week and a half.

First of all WTF with the flaming?
Lol at you for being banned =D

Second, the comma may be either a comma or a semicolon.
Both are correct

No. A comma there is 100% incorrect as that makes it a comma splice. You can NEVER join two independent clauses with just a comma.

Bad Grammer, on my FFR?

It's more likely than you think.

[GuidoHunter]

Starshot, how can you be ninja'd when four people pointed that out before brothaice.

Secondary question: brothaice, why would you point out the same thing that four people did before you, add nothing, and do so without clever presentation?
