I really did not want to be "that guy", but since you are in quality of representation of the CPM, I believe you need to avoid spelling and grammar mistakes.
The word "bi-standards", though a correctly spelled compound word, is not the one that you wanted to use. Instead, the word you were trying to use was "bystander".
Bad show, Iron Wolf Saber... bad show....
That aside, you really need to get one of the forum monkeys to make one darn RP forum. To think such a thing would be so difficult to accomplish... ugh. |

I hope you are trolling and not Sirius (see what I did there?) I would rather iron wolf spend his time engaging the community rather than grammer checking his device's spell checker. Kiso has a point I can't afford a bad grammar mistake leading to offense of many, also words I spew out will be translated to other languages. WHAT!?!?! I am quite serious about that, there are people who love this game just as much as you and I do but they're not native English. I at least browse though with google translate once a week.
Yep, this is exactly what I was subtly implying. (And what charlesnette dalari seemed to have missed. Too subtle?) One bad auto-correct or grammatically incorrect sentence, and he'll be a walking meme, and he might get trolled or "bullied" about it. A mistranslation will change the meaning of his post because of one word (or two) not being there or incorrectly misplaced.
"Presentation" is a keyword on "representation". And the better you present yourself and what you represent, the clearer the message will be, and the easier it will be for others to not misunderstand.
CCP has failed at this many times, and they have gotten a lot of 'blasting' for it. Let's not add one more person to that group. |
