I am sure alot of you dont know who I am, probably most of the long time regs know me. I been comming here since 2001 and I came back from owning AIM chat rooms and it got boring so now I am going to something else like ZC.
I graduated from High School on wednesday also. I know my grammer sucks, but this is a message board.

The fact that this is a message board means that people will judge you primarily on what they see you type. Grammar couldn't be more important.
Wow this makes me feel old.
grammar is neat, and stuff.
This makes me miss Lightning-z.
Wait, no it doesn't.

Quoted for truth. Seriously, if I think you have a third grade education, I will treat you like a third grader. You WILL benefit from showing a simple mastery of the English language.
It seems he isn't the only one who believes that poor grammar and spelling are acceptable on a message board. Just have a look at this post made just the other day: http://www.armageddongames.net/showpost.php?p=1072662&postcount=33

Agreed. In fact, my mom calls me and grammar and spelling Nazi, even at home, because she sent me an e-mail one day and I swore up and down that my little sister wrote it, not my 41 year old mother. If it reminds me of a 14 year old when I read it, you, in my mind, will be a 14 year old.

That was my first thought. How's that coming along?
Welcome (back) to Armageddon Games, hope you like it.
I can only repeat that you'll make yourself more popular on this particular board if you use proper grammar.
Apart from that, I hope you have a good time playing ZC, or perhaps even creating your own quests.
What the hell? I don't get it... Does it really take that much more effort to be grammatically correct? Whatever.
yeah, people just seem to lose all spelling capabilities on a pc. even my dad and he is an editor
Seriously, you have to be careful when spelling. Otherwise alot of people will bring down the "grammar hammer" on you. It's ok it its a complicated word, we'll know what you mean. And if you use the semi-colon properly, I will give you a cookie. VIVA LE SEMI-COLON!
I'll never understand why certain members come back. They're almost always treated like shit, and still they come back anyway. I'm not saying anything against anyone one way or the other but, whats the deal? Welcome back.
I think it was a TI-83, actually.
How's that going?
I thought it was Palm OS.

They're gluttons for punishment.
So, who exactly is this person?
I think the guy was heavily involved in DoY / SD materials.
Welcome back. Like everyone says you are respected more and listened to if you have good grammer.

They hope people have forgotten that they're idiots. You never know, maybe they've changed.
I remember you, dont remember anything about you, but I remember the name.
