Nice try on the online teacher network guys;)


Some people learn how to spell correctly as a matter of pride.  Others, like yourself, are content in their ignorance.

As a matter of pride? wow boy u really need to learn what PRIDE is really about. The dummest people in the world can take pride in things they do.

Personally if my only pride was to come from making sure my typing is up to par in this meaningless place then I would feel very bad about myself.

The problem is, is people in here feel the need to have POWER over others in this forum, and think they are all mighty and belong.

Some people still forget that this is a GAME FORUM, not a forum on economics, human rights, or rocket science.

If u have to get on someone in here about their spelling then you really have taken the internet to seriously and made what happens in here affect your own life.

And if u actually read this post and count the mispellings and I am sure ther are some. Then I really feel for u. The problem is not my spelling, the problem is I rather not spend 15 minutes on this forum typing a perfect paper, when i have way better things to do in my real life, so i ramble threw it in really fast typing and dont care what i really get right or wrong.

This is just another attempt to change the discussion at hand because I made a really good point and u couldnt come up with a good counter for it so u change the subject and point towards something u can win at.

This response is so steeped in ignorance that I'm not sure where to begin.

If you don't take pride in things you do, that's a personal choice.

A person's spelling habits aren't necessarily a reflection on their level of intelligence but they are a reflection on effort and education.  It's clear that you are both lazy and poorly educated.  
I do not count your spelling errors.  They leap off the page as they scream out your intellectual malaise.
As for changing the discusison at hand:  Well, you already did that when you entered into an argument w/ Skyrock.... again.

Your attempt at making any sense or points with your last post =  FAILED

You're in the military?  Further proof that our armed forces have lowered their standards.

The irony here can't be ignored!  All these arguments about the HO?!?!?!

Historically, shooting someone in the back was seen as cowardly.  Smart?  sure, but cowardly.  

Valiance amongst those who historically cared was often based on your opponent having an equal or greater chance to inflict damage on you.  Not always true of course, but look at the native american act of counting coup, or the western gunfighter image.  ("Gunfighters" actually shot each other in the back quite often, but were seen as less "manly" because of it...)  Those that did shoot others in the back were ridiculed as cowards. (Not too loud though- you might be the next one to get shot in the back!)

We have an image of valiance based on squirming around behind someone to shoot them in the back.  Interesting, isn't it?

The thing about spelling and grammer-  It's like riding a bike.  Once you learn how to do it, it's automatic.  You almost have to TRY to fall off!  When you do it accidently, you glance around embarrassed hoping nobody noticed.

Horrendous spelling and grammer makes reading painful and annoying.  Like watching a DVD that skips, or listening to a CD on a bumpy road with a bad CD player.  It's very difficult to ignore.

To have occasional errors is forgivable, as are the errors made by those using english as a second or third language.  

Repetitive errors made intentionally, or simply due to a lack of caring?  Definately sets you up for a less than favorable image amongst your peers.  You might be better off to claim it as ignorance- at least maybe we'd feel sorry for you, rather than annoyed by you.

Well first of all these people are not my Peers, they are simply people I play a GAME with.

This proves my point. This is just a game, it is not my fault if others take it seriously.

As far as Military goes, yes, as far as Education goes, well lets see, I have enouph that I do PSYCH OPS for the military, and I have Top Secret Security clearence.

Efing with peoples minds is my job. Picking on my grammer is just your way out of the discussion at hand, and trying to make yourself look superior.

As far as your Remark on the Military u Sir should be ashamed of yourself.

I dont see any of u in here doing your duty to protect your country, all u want to do is talk about what others did back in WW2 and PLAY it out, then act like your god all mighty.

Theres men half your age going and doing things they dont belive in nor want to do, but they do it because their country askes it of them.

For u to sit here behind a computer screen and make a idotic remark like that, just because u want to prove your worthyness over me???

U should be ashamed of yourself and apologize not to me, but this entire board for making a comment of such degrading manner towards our american military.

Dont blame whats going on on them, blame it on people like BUSH, whome u seem to favor alot seeying as out u sit behind safe doors doing the talking and none of the action.

Actually, you are 180 degrees incorrect.  As far as this community goes, the people here are precisely your peers. Since this conversation is happening in this community and nowhere else, the posters are indeed your peers concerning this.

Once again, the discussion at hand was changed to an argument between you and SR, I'm not trying to get "out" of anything.  Are you having trouble with your comprehension as well as your other problems?
