Unlike 45-year old Bushes. If there was a verb form of "meat" that would have sounded wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xazeon Posted July 5, 2010 Report Share Posted July 5, 2010 I never said kids. I said young people with fresh mind. We were previously talking about a child getting elected as a president, so it sounded like you were talking about a 12 year old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twig Posted July 6, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2010 I took out the form. looks fun can I join? Your grammar is...not good. I'm going to be strict here and say not accepted.

Twig Posted July 6, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2010 I just don't want people making boring spammish posts during topics. For example: "Hey guys! Let's discuss how we shouldn't judge book by their covers." "i don't judge books bye there cover" How are people suppose to reply to that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sploda Posted July 6, 2010 Report Share Posted July 6, 2010 I agree that we should be stricter with the grammar policy. But then again that could be my inner Grammar Nazi coming out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

galesonic Posted July 6, 2010 Report Share Posted July 6, 2010 Well, bad grammer is one thing. If they have a disorder, like Dyslexia, then that's another story entirely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kira Magister Magi Posted July 6, 2010 Report Share Posted July 6, 2010 Although, if they had dyslexia, why would they be in a place like a forum where just to do one thing, they need to read and write? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DL Posted July 6, 2010 Report Share Posted July 6, 2010 Some people just try to type fast. So they screw grammar. I think we should enforce an above-average grammar rule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

galesonic Posted July 6, 2010 Report Share Posted July 6, 2010 Yes. Even though Nazism isn't a word....I think. Well, yes and no. Political afflictions can have the -ism suffix and it is treated as a valid word. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Altαir Posted July 6, 2010 Report Share Posted July 6, 2010 Enforcing grammar... Is there truly a good, valid reason? Unless you are a complete perfectionist who cannot understand a sentence containing many grammatical errors... Then again, you did say, "above average". Does this include the "What was that for?" -> "For what was that?" change? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does this include the "What was that for?" -> "For what was that?" change?[/quote'] Did I say above average? I just don't want uncapitalized periodless(I know it's not a word) sentences. Those people who makes those sentences are either lazy or dumb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
