The Slime Lord Posted July 24, 2007 Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 Speaking of sigs, could you make that smaller or just delete it? Your sig is making my computer all slow-like.

Weather Duelist Posted July 24, 2007 Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 Why is grammar such an issue? If you wanted to misspell cards like mad' date=' then don't be surprised when we catch you on it. If you don't care about your cards, then don't bother making them. [b']What I find fun is seeing cards that look real[/b], and when I see a card like yours, its not fun. If I can tell its a fake, then there goes the coolness of the card. End of story. And by the way, I nitpick on BOTH. I don't care if its bad grammer or bad wording... if I see either, than the card fails. How can cards look real if the art work is nothing like that of Yugioh cards. The serial number don’t match any card published. The deck ID does not mach any set released. In Yugioh the copyright has nothing to do with the creator of the effect of the card. The year on every published card is the same. So how can grammar be the ONLY thing you look at every card on this sight is fake and we know it. Do you think just because your grammar is so much better that your card will be made into an official card, Not likely. Remember this is fun and you should not ridicule others for there mistakes. I am sure Upperdeck has more than one person wording every card they release and they are paid to do this, we are having fun and do this because we choose to. Just so you all know I do try to make my card look the best I can, we all have off days. Sometimes I just rush and get words mixed up. My grammar sucked before I got here and it shall when I leave. *Shakes Head* That was the poorest formed arguement I have ever seen using my words. I took my own words and made an arguement that would have resulted in the poster of the words (ME) being run from the site.. but you had to attack the most mundane things. You will never suceed at a debate. IF you had actually looked at my words... I did say LOOKED LIKE, which in no way suggests that the cards are of UDE quality. And I never said I only judge on grammar. I said I just grade grammar and wording MOST HARSHLY. And I am by no way human. I screw up on cards as well occasionally, but you know why you never see them? I take the time to correct them. That the difference between me and many of you others. If I mess up a card, I fix it, I dont just sit on my arse and decide to complain about it. YCMaker is a genius, he made a system for correcting that even the Comic Book Guy couldn't complain about. So what if the art is off? It's not like we have the Konami artist at our disposal. A good card maker can make his image appear close by TRYING to adjust it. Serial number don't match real card? Well duh, if they did, then the title of the card would be the one it matched, not the one we gave it. Our set ID doesn't match any real sets? Aww, boo hoo.. looks like our cards DONT BELONG IN THAT SET. Geeze, man, Konami and UDE crank out new sets all the time. Get over yourself, and stop being so lazy. If you can write a post like the one quoted and take the time to attempt an arguement, you can just as easily fix any and all cards with bad grammar and wording. Now... I am NOT saying that cards should be thrown out of a contest if the grammar is off. Frankly I find that if the creator of a contest wanted to judge on grammar, then it better *daylight* well be in the requirements. Otherwise, there is no obligation to ensure realisticality in cards. Lastly... do you noticed that the member who are complaining were all registered AFTER the new card maker came out? I could see this arguement in the last Card Maker.. but with this one... its just plain ridiculus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevenBray Posted July 24, 2007 Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 I put this on one of your other threads, but its more appropriate here: Quagmire_jr, with that slideshowesc motif in your sig, don't you think your taking this Grammar Nazi thing too far; this could conjure up bad memories for some about the exploits of the real NSDAP (Nazis) when someone sees it.

Quagmire_jr Posted July 27, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2007 I really couldn't care less about poor grammer on the forum' date=' however on cards it is impetuous.[/quote'] iv noticed. thats one of the things that makes u a great mod u could abuse ur power and force any1 who doesnt use good gramemr. because u dont, thats another reason ur a great mod. and still on cards u dont ban people for bad grammer, and u barely even cririsize them. Grammer is important because it is one of the besics to our society and if everyone spelled words using slang then it would "B" confusing Actually, if everyone wrote shorthand like that, it really isnt confusing...

I dont even see the errors in things like that. and i no longer have sympathy for people who freak out over it... Im ok with people using good grammer, just not when they make ME use goood grammer.

The Slime Lord Posted July 28, 2007 Report Share Posted July 28, 2007 No one is making you use grammar. If you don't want to use grammar when you are just posting, then that is fine. I really only care if people use correct grammar, proper wording, and correct spelling when making cards. That way they look like real cards and makes the creator more professional. You don't have to use grammar, wording, and spelling when making a card if you don't want to. It will just make you look like a slob and makes it look like you don't care.

Frunk Posted July 28, 2007 Report Share Posted July 28, 2007 i played Runescape for over a year *Crowd starts cheering* [sar] Dude... so? I played it for nearly a year myself and noticed that it's nothing less than a haven for poor grammer - but mainly coming from the 7-year-old-ish kids who don't know any better - how old are YOU' date=' Quag? i no longer have sympathy for people who freak out over it... I'm not telling you to use it, I'm just telling you that I don't like seeing it - if and when I have to rate cards that contain poor grammer, the makers will lose points for it. You do what ever you want, but it doesn't seem to me like you take full pride in your work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
