Should've.

Not Should of.

Should - Have.

You should of not made this thread.

I would of done it first...but you know: should of, would of, could of.

I've just been seeing it more and more on this forum, and I know **** well that a good percentage of its users are of equal, or typically greater age than myself.

It's just

please stop making this mistake

Grammatical errors and spelling mistakes are a diamond dozen and can you really blame people? It's a doggie dog world out there, you don't need the extra stress of accurate englishing.

It's just not hard to get right.

I hole-hardedly agree, but allow me to play doubles advocate here for a moment. For all intensive purposes I think you are wrong. In an age where false morals are a diamond dozen, true virtues are a blessing in the skies. We often put our false morality on a petal stool like a bunch of pre-Madonnas, but you all seem to be taking something very valuable for granite. So I ask of you to mustard up all the strength you can because it is a doggy dog world out there. Although there is some merit to what you are saying it seems like you have a huge ship on your shoulder. In your argument you seem to throw everything in but the kids Nsync, and even though you are having a feel day with this I am here to bring you back into reality. I have a sick sense when it comes to these types of things. It is almost spooky, because I cannot turn a blonde eye to these glaring flaws in your rhetoric. I have zero taller ants when it comes to people spouting out hate in the name of moral righteousness. You just need to remember what comes around is all around, and when supply and command fails you will be the first to go. Make my words, when you get down to brass stacks it doesn't take rocket appliances to get two birds stoned at once. It's clear who makes the pants in this relationship, and sometimes you just have to swallow your prize and accept the facts. You might have to come to this conclusion through denial and error but I swear on my mother's mating name that when you put the petal to the medal you will pass with flying carpets like it’s a peach of cake.

I'm with you, captain! Also, the effect of an upgrade will effect a change in the game state, possibly affecting the outcome of the game.

In real life, where I know the person, this kind of stuff annoys me a little. Online, it's hard to tell who is a native English speaker and who isn't. For someone who learned it as a second language, getting things close enough for others to understand is good enough.

Now if you know the person is a native English speaker, and they're still getting dumb stuff wrong...

Anyone board yet?

Did you miss the PSA on informative thread titles?

I was hoping this was going to be an announcement about the release of the rouge squadron expansion.

Sometimes we all make boo boos...don't get to excited.

Rouge Squadron? The cross-dressing, make-up wearing nancies with their x-wing panty-liners...

Also fora (not forums).

Also Effenhoog = hilarious!

I wear boxers, not briefs.

Wat'f yer a wookie from da far back woods? Only type English. Speks in growels. ?????

Wat'f yer a wookie from da far back woods? Only type English. Speks in growels. ?????

This flagrant misuse of the English language literally made my head explode.

I was hoping it was an unlabelled spoiler...

... then we could loose our minds and flame post the OP!

That would teach him for his lose ways...

I hole-hardedly agree, but ...

A central tenant of internets communications are proper word choice, irregardless of you're language background, and I don't see why all of the sudden we're are seeing pushbacks on that.

Technically correct - the best kind of correct, but different dialects do variate. Everythink. Nothink. Should of. All common parlance in certain areas of the UK.

wasn't there are saying like "the whole world knows how to speak english - except for the brits"? :D

gess Ei shudd introdjuuz ju ohl tu aur dschörman-inglisch, tuh. :D

colloquial use and the eventual misspelling of words bother some people, others aren't as bothered. Some personal pet peeves of my own include adding an 's' to a word or replacing that or the with dat or da (not that there is anyone on this site that would do that).
