I really was going to launch in to a diatribe about how much I loath the posters
on this site and the proper way to converse on this site and maybe just maybe
nobody really cares what you think. However seening as the player base has the
attention span of a flea I did a simple youtube search and found a Instructional video
for all the tards out there to Digest.
How to behave on the internet
Have fun with that. The patch was great can't wait for the next SE.

Yeah, some people here make me wonder if they've even hit puberty yet... That being said, I also love the new patch and cannot wait for more! It finally feels like there is life in the game. ^^

this is completely off topic but im curious: I haven't been on yet since the patch took so long to download, is there a noticeable player-base increase? i know allot of people quit and said they'd return when 1.18 came.

syntax, other then some of the old members that recently came back to our shell. I haven't noticed.
But I only go to play for 45minutes this morning. I have another shell that's all people I played with on
XI on carbuncle. I'll check that shell when I get home from work. that will be a good indicator of the
effect of this patch. 30 ppl in that shell and Only Me, Mia , and one other person played this game activley. -

Sadly this is all too true. Unless they ever get serious about moderating the forums around here, nothing will change.
And no its nothing new to me. Doesnt mean I have to like the situation. -
07-23-2011, 12:44 AMHaibelIs that a reference to Post count?Quote:

much. I really don't care to be that correct because this is a forum not a term paper. I'm dyslexic as it is, so just
getting my point across in a half way conherent way is good enough for me. -
07-23-2011, 01:43 AMsyntaxliesYea, I wasn't saying you were incapable of proper grammar. Computers and cell phones have pretty much annihilated the English language and when someone picks apart someones text instead of the actual thought behind it it usually means they are incapable of producing any sort of intelligent response.Quote:

you for saying grammer police..
me for asking is that Godwins Law
or Sephr for being a grammer nazi.
Guess I lose for this post. Oh well that the internet for you. It's such a scray place. -
07-23-2011, 01:49 AMSephr
Oooh a block list, didn't know I'd made one of them, I think that's a first! Especially considering, looking at your post history, we've not got involved in any of the same conversation topics! But then, you can't read this, so...
It was more of a 'people in glass houses shouldn't throw stones' thing, really. Telling people how to behave when many actually consider poor spelling to be a negative trait on the interwebs is somewhat hypocritical. -

07-23-2011, 02:44 AMHaibelThere is still a Veiw post button, which I would not have pressed. However knowing that this post would be directedQuote:

However as I look though your large post history I can't see were I would have added you to my list.
your veiw and mine line up and your well spoken. even on things we disagree on there would be room for
debate.
I lerk around this forums and put my input when I have something to add. Just spouting off nonsensicly aboutQuote:

That sounds like Sarcasm, You should know that does not work on the internet. What or who is it your White KnightingQuote:

I would love to sit around more and talk about this but it is quiting time at work and I will be heading home to enjoy FFXIV.
you have a great day.
