    The sad thing is a lot of the posts with horrible grammar are written by those whose native language is english. That being said, I would personally be quite happy if I didn't have to see my native language being butchered constantly.

    Dragonheart: It's spelled "participant"... for god's sake please use spell check! (Isn't it built into most browsers these days?) I get that english isn't your first language and I don't expect you to be awesome at syntax and such but spelling mistakes are pure and simple laziness.

    Using a spell checker is pure laziness and advocates stupidity for those ignorant in the spelling of English as a language.

    anyway the internet is an informal medium an know one cares if a few words are inproperly used or mispelled no matter your language, except maybe you.

    It is a simple matter of self respect and for that matter respect for others. As for saying 'the internet is an informal medium' that is so broad and baseless a comment it is simply meaningless. Not to mention completely irrelevant.
    And by the way a spellchecker is simply a tool, much like a dictionary.

    A tool yes, but not like a dictionary. A dictionary is a tool of learning and a spell checker is a tool of efficiency. you must have also missed my intentional miss use of no with "know" might want to fix that too, if it bothers you so.

    Agree 100%. This thread is full of simple minded children who clearly do not understand what it takes to launch (or in this case re-launch) a successful game. The complaints are getting you no where, you will find out more information once beta is released and were actually playing the game. Until then keep making these insipid posts complaining about something out of your control. I'm sure we'll see the same people complaining about beta once that's launched, and the same for the live game.

    Well video games are for kids after all and there are some younger kids who play this game so the complaining and stuff should be expected.

    Dude, your character reminds me of a cockatoo.

    Anyhoozies, I know you guys would love to hear no complaints ever but that's kinda of you know BAD for the game. So let's just let the devs call out what's worth considering and what's not. Mmk?

    I never understood why spelling bother's people, Specially in games (ment for fun "yes ment = meant") Like if somebody writes "There" but really meant to say "Their" should not matter really, you still understand what they mean and get their point. English is my third language, and for the most part I would assume that my grammar is not bad, how ever I must say that English is one of the most unstable languages on the planet due to it's grammar rules. English is like the only language or one of few that can have words that sound the same but have 3-4 different meanings, in the end who ever invented English is most likely confused as well. (Right, Write, Rite) (Were, Where, Wear)

    Note: Not to be picky but since your on the grammar train, you said "whose native language is english"
    But "english" is spelled with a capital so you should of put "English"
