More like seeing something in a different perspective... Try again.

Look, write, does it matter? The same themes still exist. If you have bad grammar you look like an idiot. Since you will never see that guy ever again in you're life, you would assume that hes probably and idiot and stupid. LOL, read the reactions from the people that read Sonic's copy and paste quotes of Micester. I got to admit, he does have bad grammar and wow... theres bad grammar and theres really bad grammar, but personally, that to me doesn't make him an idiot or stupid. Hes probably a lazy/sloppy typer who just doesn't care.

Either way you are still going to percieve someone badly if they have bad grammar from the sounds of it from this forum.

Edit: Um doh Rey, orange is orange, but words isn't oranges since if you put them in certain or different combinations they can have multi meaning. If you put 2 oranges together in certain/different combinations, well... you still got 2 oranges. And guess what, they will still be orange. Plz try another example.

Im done with this thread, unless I see something that I see that I really have to commnet on.

Something that is orange will always be orange.

It is fearful. What will they teach their children if they do procreate? I only pray that he is just lazy and he honestly doesn't talk like that.

You are playing with my words. I said people should try their best at grammar, and if I'm improperly using the comma (or using it too much) then I would gladly hear what I'm doing wrong, because I don't know everything. You don't know everything either, so don't you talk like you do. Nothing rude being implied.

Just because you take away a different meaning, Barry, doesn't mean that meaning was there. I think the bible tells me to go out and kill hookers every night, but I don't think that's a hugely valid interpretation of the bible.

really though? banned for LIFE?!? are the people over there insane? they could have just casually removed the thread and gave you a warning, nowhere, like you said, did it ever say you can't share e-mails between help desk and yourself with public users. and seriously, they should have looked into his posts first and found out where you were coming from about the whole grammar issue. they need to get their heads straight.

i dunot get how does they ppl tak l like this all this time.

Banned for life man. It says in their e-mail that they send you that you are not aloud to share it with anyone;however, it does not say that anywhere in the Help Desk reply. I only checked the help desk reply. I didn't bother to check what they said in my e-mail(because it says the exact same thing). Yes they do need to get their heads straight.

I wasn't playing with your words, those are direct quotes from what you'd written. I'm no English teacher, but it bugs me when people try to sound intelligent by adding unnecessary commas and such, which is what you did. It just makes you look like an idiot. Nothing rude being implied.

Funny how sarcasm doesn't work so well on the internet. Maybe it's the fact that people can't hear you.

I think they over reacted just a bit.

It was a good try though, to ask that grammar was mandatory.
Unfortunately this is the 21st century, fewer people use proper grammar because text speak is more 'convenient.'

Really though, it is that hard to spell out 'to' instead of simply typing '2'?

It is only one more character!

Hmm, this went from a thread about being banned to a argument between a few people over things that don't need to be argued about this much.
