Hey everyone, my name is Stephen! I like to play Halo 3 because it's a fun game and all the people I know play it. Bungie made Halo 3 and it's very fun to play! I really enjoy playing, but sometimes there are stupid people that play and their attitudes piss me off! It's all right, because I own them all day long. Well, that's it for me! I will talk to you guys later.
Oh yes... I have this one.

Capital after comma is fail.

This I know, which is why it was in a quote...

But what's not in a quote is the unnecessary use of a comma in the title.

Think about it, if you see two posts, one which contains "lols haysup g?" and one that contains "hey, what's up?", which poster do you think took the time to think about what he said, and made himself look intelligent?

Enough of the rant, onto the guide.

When posting, always capitalize the first letter of a sentence. When starting a new paragraph, space it out from the first one. Always capitalize the letter i if it's by itself. Use apostrophes when conjoining a compound word, like it's (it is.) proper nouns always get capitalized, like when stating a specific name of a general product, for example: Big red. A person's name is capitalized, like stephen. Use periods to end a sentence; otherwise, it looks like one giant run-on sentence. Commas; use them, they separate ideas or thoughts in a sentence.

If you are unsure about the spelling of a word, google it. This is in no way a complete grammar guide; just a few basics to help some people out.


The first person to correct this next paragraph, grammar and all, will win my undying love, and something cool. (to be decided.) there is a maximum of five tries, so think carefully. :)

EDIT:

WTH capitals aren't working but yea, everything in red is wrong and generally corrected.

Ok, if that was supposed to be correcting my post, I disagree. I used all proper capitals, and proper grammar. I didn't edit it after you posted, so I love you.

Grammar is fucking legit.

I agree though, you look like a retard if 1337speak. Does anyone have that signature about good grammar?

Also, get FireFox, it has great grammar+spelling add-ons.

EskimoANM 10-29-2008 08:31 PM

I agree that correct grammar and spelling should be used when communicating on a forum, but slight mistakes shouldn't matter too much.

However, yes, i dislike people that repeatedly speak "1337speak".
