I use the ellipses way to often. See I would have normally used it right there but since I was talking about it I caught myself. *refrains from using the ellipses*



EDIT:Spelling of the word "Ellipses" > me.

Apparently, so is the correct usage of the "too", "to" and "two" homonyms.

Like most Asylumites, I have a pet peeve with regards to grammar. More specifically, the blatant incorrect use of the comma in place of all other punctuation. I thought that this was an anomaly when I first saw it done by a woman on another forum. I have now seen it done yet again by what seems to be a girl in the OOT forum found here. What possesses these people to insert commas where there needn't be any and to replace periods with sometimes three consecutive commas? Is this a female only phenomenon? What school system teaches this?


Did you start this thread just because of something i said obvisiously wrong in the other forum ,or am i missing something here ?

God ,that is soooo mean /NOD Smiley: smile
and yes, fyi i do know about this forum as well .
And again ,sorry i didn't read this thread before now.
God help me if something more is spelled wrong in my post(s) if that's the case hehe Smiley: wink

Btw ,i told you I do not live in an english speaking countryso i do not care that much about my grammar all the time !
At least i think some people understood what i was writing ;P

It's more about the commas rather than the actual word or sentence structure. Why do you use so many commas?

I'm going to hope that there are some character encoding issues causing something you type to show up as commas to most of us.

If that isn't the case, surely you know you type a lot of commas?

ok,i get the point.
U guys are rating me down because i dont have over 1000 posts yet or something ? Smiley: smile
Or is it just because i actually had a little too much COMMAS in one of my posts ? ;P
oh well hehe )

part my bad ,i thought he was refering to my second post in this thread ,not the one in OOT forum
Quote:

Let me be honest ,i dont know why i used that many COMMAS in that post ,but when i looked at it after you guys mentioned it i was actually able to see what u mean by that hehe.
On the other hand ,i didn't took the time to fix it after,cause i didn't really think it would be that annoying to people ;P

Not comma placement moran. Re-read the OP after you get some reading comprehension skills.

Comma placement != comma usage.

Smiley: oyvey Too bad you are the only one in this thread who just does not get it.

#50REDACTED, Posted: Mar 16 2006 at 1:54 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) Maybe so. But either you all are completely **** rententive regarding commas on a forum board (which cracks me up), or you think being catty to someone is a big joke (which doesn't crack me up). If the latter, then you know being catty in a formum thinking it is funny, isn't necessarily going to be funny to anyone else.
