[quote]You used words that have totally different meanings than what you were trying to say. I just didnt use punctuation. Wasn't fixing you grammar overall, was informing you of the incorrect usage of a word. And if you understand english you should know there is no need to put 'I' before 'agree' as 'I' is understood without being used. Context clues kid. Go back to 10th grade english[/quote]This is the internet on a video game forum, did it not occur to you that 90% of people who post on the bungie forums do so quickly, by using acronyms, slang, lack of punctuation. Using your and you're is often just a lazy thing not a misunderstanding. Context clues buddy. (We're on the internet lol)

Your shows possession. You're is you are. Words exist for a reason. Use the correct terms. Just because I'm lazy I'm not gonna call chocolate ice cream vanilla, its not the correct term.

This is also the problem with kids nowadays. The lack of responsibility for ones actions. You wrote the post. You made errors. Accept it , correct it, learn from it and move on instead of arguing a moot point.

Accept it, correct it, learn from it and move on instead of arguing a moot point.[/b][/quote]Lack of responsibility for my crime of incorrect grammar. I should be fined by the internet police or you should get the ninjas in here to deal with this absurd offense I committed that only you seem to care about. Also, you're implying I am denying my error when I am not. All I said was this is the internet, I don't treat my post with 100% grammatical seriousness. You're moot.

You wrote a giant post. If you had enough time to write that all you have enough time to use the correct words.

Do you feel like a special snowflake now that you corrected him? Pointless grammar correction.
-
I wouldn't say it's pointless, when poor grammatical skills are so freakin' prevalent on social media, currently. It's degrading basic communication fundamentals. Pretty aggravating, honestly.
-
Its not a pointless grammar correction. I didn't point out his lack of commas and periods and other stuff those are useless corrections. I'm pointing out his lack of using the correct term. Its up to the author of anything to make sure they use the correct terms to convey what they are trying to say in a logical and easily understandable way. Your and you're are two different words with two different meanings. They cannot be used interchangeably
-
Yes it was pointless. Did he give any -blam!-s? Nope! There for it was pointless and you made yourself look like a teachers pet.
-
A teachers pet? No child, people using incorrect words make themselves look like idiots. I told him I agree with him he just needs to learn the difference between the two words. He took offense instead of realizing he made a mistake, like a child. Constructive criticism. Shit, if you can take a dick you can take some criticism
-
I am not offended lol, you're being a grammar n@zi on the internet. The whole basis of you're argument implied people wouldn't understand me because I didn't use the correct words when in fact my lazy incorrect usage of your/you're had no impact on anyones' understanding. [b]Claim:[/b] No one understood me, because of the wrong usage of your/you're. [b]Reality:[/b] Everyone understood me fine, including you. [b]What have we learned:[/b]Your claim is false, everyone understood me.
-
They always do. (Grammar N@zis)
-
They think they are special or some shit? No one gives a damn about what they post. It just creates hate twords themselfs. Just get over the fact you are not special or smarter becouse you wanna be a teachers pet.... Smdh
