What would one think of the impressions we leave on the masses with all this talk of "Sheep" and "N00kies." One would think us mere neanderthals.

And I, speaking on behalf of the community, will not stand for these indiscretions.

LOL, speaking for the neanderthals... spellchecker would be a plus.

One thing that hasn't been brought up. Many players are not from the U.S. or from a English speaking country!!! So their grammar and spelling may not be the best. Judging from the original post, the person was trying to say his piece in the best way he knew how. Lets not get stupid over someone trying their best to convey something in a language that is not native to them.

Yet again, I am of the opinion that the style of which many people write has little to do with their actual abilities. Their style online has much similarity to those who lack effort. In other words, many people can't be asked to attempt to write out a concise, grammatically correct statement. These people have probably been all that way their entire life. It is unfortunate for the rest of us that someone provided them with a computer, because who knows how they mustered up the effort to get one themselves.

So BBQ_Bob actually has very little say in which path we do or do not follow in the future of this BBS board.

However, note that for the future of this board, we will have to procure inflatable female Ovis Aries to keep the simpleton masses from rioting. I am of the opinion that this "Method" will work very well.

That's the best you can come up with, lol no wonder nobody likes you. Seriously lasersailor18 have you ever gotten any leg at all? I do think that may be part of your problem, you know the anal attitude that you have. And when I say that you do not speak for me what I really meant to say was that you are a moron that gets his kicks buy insulting and verbly bullying kids on this board that are just trying to simply ask a question. Why must you be that way? And what path of the board are you talking about, lol like you have any say in it. Now cool your jets and go flip your hamburgers.

There's a big difference in the posting of people from different countries and the posting of people who either cannot or will not use the basics of written communication. The out of towners are NOT the ones being discussed. Besides, most of THEM have better skills than the stringitalltogether types.

I don't condone the battering of people who have problems with spelling or grammar.... I'm just older and worried about the difficulties these problems can cause for them in life and/or the business world. I'm not talking about the occasional mistakes and typos either.... everyone makes those. Plus I like to use dots......to simulate the annoying way in which I actually talk.

Well SkyWolf it may cause them problems in their lifes but I don't think the forum, speically not when a question is asked, is the place to teach them. The only thing they will learn, specially if young, is how to get pissed of at people correcting them.

They will probarly learn from reading the forums, but not from reading the actual corrections. They will learn from everyday posts like this and many many others.

Not to mention the "hijacking" of threads this kind of "spelling police" behavior causes.

lasersailor, if you really wanna help out and if you're that concerned about the youth in the USA, instead of jumping onto WylieBoys back and say what he did wrong, instead ask him if he likes the help you offer him. You seem to like educating and thus maybe you should put up a dedicated spelling and grammar post in the O'club for everybody to visit.

Just a side note, but you get respected a lot more if you use proper capitilization and punctuation in your posts. Even if its just for a sentence.

These days Im happy when they just use complete words or intentionally misspelled words

NOTHING online is more annoying then seeing things like
" R U Lqqking at the mail I sent"

whenever you don't use proper grammer capitalization and punctuation it makes it diifficult for some of us old farts to follow along at least I find this to be true in my case in most of the circles in which I travel you are considered to be unedumacated if your written communication looks like it was created by a 5 year old the average 3rd grader of my generation had better written communication skills that does the average high school student today it's a bit disconcerting to see the shape of education today and the students it produces who to the rest of the world appear uneducated no wonder johnny is a dumbsh...er... uh...why johnny can't read all of the jobs I've held required you to be able to communicate in a manner that does not embarrass the company to US based customers and to customers on other continents I would have a difficult time finding work if I could not construct grammatically correct sentences important to be understood important to be respected by people in the business world I wish everyone was judged only on the content of their thought and not by their inability to get their thoughts across in written form in my world it doesn't work that way fail to communicate effectively and you don't get in the door sad but true.

Bet you can't say that without taking a breath.

A mobile that is a 262? Where do I get one?

Yes, Wylie, we do have the 1a model. The 2a variant would be nice, especially if it had cluster bombs. But if you ask me, it's not a high-item on the list of add-in's. There are more important aircraft to remodel or add IMHO. I'm sure it would be quite easy to add - just as a weapon variants similiair to the Bf-110. But not important at the moment.

Hey BBQ_Bob,

To hijack this thread further, you appear to be descending to the level of personal attacks here. OK, the guy might have been a bit patronizing, but no need to get personal.

BBQ_Bob · « **Reply #44 on:** September 22, 2005, 12:07:04 PM »

TDeacon yours is the voice of calm, I just wanted to get the last word IN .

And to get back on track, the ME262 is a hunter so why exactly would you want a bomb? Speaking just for myself I would prefer not to take a bomb along but I would not be against having the option to do so.
